A nationwide search of music executive Jimmy Henchman ended when federal authorities apprehended him in the least likely place; In New York City near the W Hotel.
According to previous police reports and a confession by an imprisoned New York man who is claiming responsibility for the robbery and shooting of slain rapper Tupac Shakur, Jimmy Henchman should have been long gone and out of the country already.
The fact that a man who is currently serving a life sentence for murder and other violent charges is pointing the finger at the former music executive would give anyone else reason to take flight even if the run would be short lived.
According to our sources, law enforcement was tipped off that Henchmen was planning to leave the country within hours before his apprehension however his plans were brought to a halt once he was spotted near the W Hotel in lower Manhattan. Once Henchmen spotted DEA agents he bolted down a busy park avenue street only to be arrested without incident.
Why would a man accused of being responsible for moving kilos of cocaine throughout the city not have a better exit plan? Coincidently, two other men responsible for killing the same man who had smacked Jimmy Henchmen’s son two years ago was found murdered by alleged close associates of Henchmen.
If any of the rumors are true that Jimmy Henchmen is a snitch then chances are he will be singing like R. Kelly to the authorities in hopes of striking some kind of deal. The saga has only just begun for him and something tells us more arrests are to follow.
