Rapper The Game's manager James "Jimmy Henchman" Rosemond, who is also the CEO of Czar Entertainment, was reportedly arrested Tuesday by federal agents in New York for alleged involvement with a major drug operation. Rosemond was chased down on foot, according to reports, after he was found hiding out in a hotel near 21st Street and Park Ave. Authorities had been looking for him for nearly a month.
Rosemond is suspected by authorities to have been in charge of a large cocaine distribution network through which hundreds of pounds of the drug have made their way from L.A. to New York via FedEx and UPS over the last three years.
While the search for Rosemond was going on, one of his former associates, Dexter Isaac, confessed to the 1994 shooting of rapper Tupac Shakur at Manhattan's Quad Studios, claiming that Rosemond had hired him for the job. The incident sparked a war between Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G, which eventually led to both of their murders. The validity of Isaac's claims is at this point unknown.
