VIDEO: Greg Kading's Book Says Sean Combs, Suge Knight Ordered Tupac and Biggie Killings

Categories: Crime, Police

Greg Kading
In the pages of his potentially game-changing self-published book Murder Rap, set for release Oct. 4, former Los Angeles Police Department Detective Greg Kading reveals that LAPD has been sitting on extensive tapes and documents containing confessions from key players behind the alleged assassinations of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls. LAPD higher-ups pulled Kading off the double investigation right when he was poised to drive it home, he says. Then they shut it down completely.

An informant tells Kading in a taped confession that he was offered $1 million to kill Death Row rapper Tupac Shakur and Suge Knight, the label's former CEO. The informant then tells his interrogators in plain language, albeit at a cool street clip, that Sean Combs -- then known as Puff Daddy, the ringmaster of Bad Boy Entertainment, Death Row Records' bitter cross-country rival -- commissioned Shakur's legendary murder in Vegas in September 1996.

In another stunning confession, detailed in LAPD documents reviewed by the Weekly, the mother of one of Knight's children, identified in Kading's book as "Theresa Swann," breaks down in tears, stating that the former Death Row boss gave her the money to pay Wardell "Poochie" Fouse -- Knight's close associate and a fellow member of the Mob Piru Bloods -- to kill Smalls.

Read the full story, "Cop's Book Says Sean Combs, Suge Knight Ordered Tupac and Biggie Killings."

Below, Kading discusses why he wrote the book and what he hopes it will accomplish.

Although, I would not be surprised , if what is mentioned is the truth. It is just another, classic example of "Black On Black" crime. The difference, The accused are rich "NEGROES"

actually they have been saying for a while it was Jimmy 'Henchman' Iovine that paid for him to get shot the first time around. Given his history not only with Sean 'Puffy' Combs and Suge Knight, plus the fact that he is a drug trafficker and all around bad guy, I think that he is not only the finances but the brains behind both murders..

please. Puffy is in the rap industry, but he isnt quite THAT partiuclar type of shot caller. He's more like a clown - shiny suit and lip gloss wearing, etc. etc. -- Besides, the feud (albeit petty and ridiculous) was great for business. That Suge Knight dude? Now thats a different story alltogether -- so much so, I thought twice about mentioning his name in this comment. But he probably cant spell IP address

You don't know what you are talking about. I despise Puffy, but realize that he could successfully orchestrate a hit on ANYBODY if he wanted to. Just because he's a clown, doesn't mean he isn't extremely dangerous.

Kading is full of himself and wrote this book out of greed. What he does not mention is that he personnaly botched the "Biggie" investigation and that is why the case is being "shelved" as he puts it. He also botched the Tupoc investigation, by making a back room deal with a suspect without the authority to do so.  Go a step further he had no business working the Tupoc case as this was a Las Vegas investigation.  Kading does not mention anything about these mistakes or others he made which resulted in a murder suspect being released, and cases not being filed by the Feds or state because of his (Kadings) lack of credibility......... A quote by a Federal authority puts it best "Kading is the most corrupt officer I have ever worked around"....

Indeed, Internal Affairs did find that Kading made errors on the affidavit when quoting people from a taped conversation, such as using the word "policy" when the correct word was "procedure," and using the word "and" when it should have been the word "so."Kading admitted that he made the mistakes and relied on his memory to write the affidavit instead of verifying the quotes by listening to the taped conversation.Nevertheless, Internal Affairs ultimately ruled that, "There is absolutely no evidence in this investigation to show that Kading intentionally or maliciously misrepresented material facts."

first of all that 1million dollars didn't just come out of puff's pocket their were a few other players...and those players are the reason why puffy didn't get jacked the first time he step out in cali...the original hit was on PAC the addition from puff's view was suge...with only one dead only half was paid and most of that came out of puff's purse...after all those other players been jerking puff... oh and those other players orchestrated the first hit on pac  listen carefully 2 against all odds....the question is will puffy snitch on those guys for his freedom....
