CBS Los Angeles has a story about a newly revealed court record pertaining to testimonial made by an inmate who shared a cell with former LAPD officer Rafael Perez.
The inmate alleges that Perez, and another former LAPD officer, David Mack, were associated with Death Row and that Perez passed along the location of Christopher Wallace (The Notorious B.I.G.) to Mack at least one point during the event.
“Perez was working security. Perez had a cell phone. Perez said he called over to Mack, David Mack on his cell phone. Perez told Mack that Biggie Smalls was in his truck. Perez never said that he set up Biggie Smalls but I have heard that he…had something to do with that murder,” according to the inmate.
Perez was on-duty on the night that Wallace was killed and both he and Mack have denied their involvement.
