Website The Smoking Gun is reporting that Los Angeles Times mistakenly based its allegation of a “1994 shooting of Tupac Shakur in the lobby of a Manhattan recording studio was carried out by associates of Sean “Diddy” Combs” because of “fabricated FBI reports” written by a currently imprisoned conman.

OH MY!

The Smoking Gun claims that “The Times appears to have been hoaxed by an imprisoned con man and accomplished document forger…. The con man, James Sabatino, 31, has long sought to insinuate himself, after the fact, in a series of important hip-hop events, from Shakur’s shooting to the murder of The Notorious B.I.G.. “

The article in Smoking Gun reads like a detective novel.
