"Emotional Testimony: Witness Recounts Jam Master Jay's Final Moments and Identifies Suspected Killer in Court"

A tearful witness described how Karl Jordan Jr. walked up to Jam Master Jay in a recording studio, gave a half handshake, and then shot him dead before shrugging off his limp body. The witness, Uriel Rincon, testified in the trial of Jordan and Ronald Washington, who are accused of the 2002 killing of the Run-DMC star. Prosecutors allege the murder was a result of a drug deal gone bad. Rincon, who was shot himself in the encounter, admitted he was scared to name names but eventually came forward in 2017. Defense attorneys argued that witnesses cooperating for leniency should be viewed skeptically. If convicted, the suspects face a maximum sentence of life in prison.
