Rhyme And Punishment

In our music history class, we watched a documentary about rappers doing time for their crime. In the movie, what I found most interesting is the story behind Big Lurch's imprisonment. The story behind Big Lurch is that he's a normal Texas dude named Antron Singleton making a career with music. However, when a drunk driver hit him in September 16. 2000, he depended on PCP to ease his pains. His "homies" would take the opportunities to plot the murder of  Tynisha Ysais. On April 2002, Big Lurch "murdered"  Tynisha Ysais in her apartment in Los Angeles. Her chest was torn apart and a knife broken on her shoulder blade. He was sentenced to life in prison. BUT the biggest plot twist is when evidence would later provide that the hand-print on the knife didn't match his. It's just a crazy situation on who did what. It's interesting because it's still a mystery still waiting to be solved.
