This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Notorious BIG’s death, and shocking news has surfaced. As many still wonder who killed the rapper, a former detective on the case says he knows exactly who did it.
Who killed Notorious BIG?
In an interview with Complex.com, Detective Greg Kading who was assigned to the case between 2006 – 2009, points the crime to Wardell “Poochie” Fouse, claiming he was paid $13,000 to complete the job to kill Notorious BIG .
“Wardell ‘Poochie’ Fouse was paid to kill Biggie,” he says. “At the time, he was a 36-year old member of the Mob Piru Bloods. According to several Death Row insiders and FBI informants, Poochie was a “down-for-the-cause”, hardcore gang member. Confidential sources from the Death Row entourage, the Mob Pirus, and [Suge’s girlfriend, identified in Kading’s book by the alias “Theresa Swann”], said Poochie had done shootings for Suge in the past. Reggie Wright Jr.—who was the head of Death Row security—said Suge and Poochie’s relationship was different than other members of the gang. They had a very secretive and exclusive relationship.
Confessions
Even after getting two confessions from people who played a role in the deaths of Tupac Shakur and Notorious BIG, Kading was taken off the the case . He says he believes Biggie’s murder will never be solved.
“It comes down to how you define solved. Both law enforcement agencies—the Las Vegas Police Department and the L.A.P.D.—have drawn the conclusions that Tupac was killed by Orlando Anderson and Biggie Smalls was killed by Wardell ‘Poochie’ Fouse,” he said.
“Those are the facts within law enforcement. They’re considered solved internally, but the public’s definition of solved is different. They haven’t gone through the judicial process and nobody has been prosecuted.”
