Crazy Footage: London Man Tries To Justify Hacking Soldier To Death To Cameraman Before Being Shot By Police "You Will Never Be Safe" [Video] UPDATE Attacker Labeled As Terrorist

2013-05-22T20:30:00.000Z

Video After The Jump

Via Metro UK

Footage of one of the men suspected of hacking to death a young man, thought to be a soldier, in broad daylight in south-east London attempting to justify the attack has been broadcast on ITV News.

The astonishing video shows a man with bloodied palms and holding a cleaver discuss the killing with a member of the public filming him.

The attack in John Wilson Street, Woolwich, has been described as a suspected terrorist attack by government sources.

Witnesses have described two men hacking a man with cleavers before dragging his body into the middle of the street ‘like a piece of meat’.

In the video shown by ITV News during its 6.30 p.m. bulletin and later posted online, the man, wearing a grey hooded jacket and black woolly hat, apologizes to people who witnessed the attack.

"We must fight them as they fight us, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth," he says to unseen bystanders, as other people stand around in the background.

"I apologize that women had to witness this today but in our land our women have to see the same."

The man, who speaks clear English without a hint of a foreign accent, adds: "You people will never be safe – remove your government, they don’t care about you."

He then walks back towards the victim lying prone in the street to talk to the second suspect.

Later footage shows the men also lying in the street after being shot by armed police called to the scene.

They are being treated in separate hospitals, with one suspect in a critical condition.

Home secretary Theresa May said: "It has been confirmed to me that a man has been brutally murdered this afternoon in south-east London. Two other men were shot by armed police and they are currently receiving treatment for their injuries."

"This is a sickening and barbaric attack."

David Cameron is set to return to the UK tonight after cancelling plans to remain in Paris after talks with French president Francois Hollande.

The prime minister, who described the attack as "truly shocking," said: "We’ve had these type of attacks in our country before, and we never buckle in the face of them."

Lil Scrappy Fails Drug Test. Says He's Addicted To Weed, Will Enter Rehab Facility

2013-05-22T18:00:00.000Z

Lil Scrappy is an admitted weed addict who needs help kicking his habit.

As we previously reported, the Love and Hip Hop Atlanta cast member refused to submit a fresh urine sample in March after probation officials suspected his first sample had been tainted with. He left the testing facility and a warrant was issued for his arrest.

Scrappy turned himself on April 23rd. He appeared in a Georgia courtroom this morning where it was revealed that the drug test he took last week came back positive for marijuana.

Scrappy's lawyer, Mawuli Mel Davis, told TMZ that his client admitted to being addicted to the drug. The rapper will check into a rehab facility before his next court hearing in June.

Attorney Scott Leemon Reveals New Details On The Investigation of Chris Lighty’s Death.

2013-05-21T22:00:00.000Z

Attorney Scott Leemon just released a press release that includes new details on the investigation of Hip-hop mogul Chris Lighty’s death.

Leemon is a well-known lawyer who has worked on many high-profile cases. He, today, along with Chris Lighty's mother, released the following statement along with an online petition to request a reopening of the investigation.

Read the full statement:

After many months of investigation, led by Les Levine, I am in a position to provide the following update on the inquiry into Darrell "Chris" Lighty’s death.
After hours of interviews, the review of many documents and other investigatory means our findings have left many important and material questions that still need to be answered.
The main problem that we encountered was that the NYPD did not do a thorough investigation into Chris’ death. In fact, what they did do was cursory, at best.
First, the Medical Examiner’s office never tested Chris’ hands nor any of his clothes for gun shot residue. This is a simple test that can be done in hours. Luckily, records indicate that an actual sample was taken for this purpose, but it was never tested. For months we have requested that the sample be tested and even offered to pay any costs relating to the testing, but our offer was ignored. The sample still sits in the office of the Chief Medical Examiner.

Second, the gun recovered at the scene was traced as part of a multi-gun purchase in North Carolina. The weapon was never reported stolen. Despite this fact, no follow up was done with this information nor was the individual even interviewed. More importantly, no DNA tests were done on the gun.
These are only a few of the open issues that our investigation has uncovered. There is much more that needs to be done.

Purposely, I have been careful not to discuss specific witness statements or other details publically as not to prejudice the investigation.
We invite and urge the Bronx County District Attorney’s office to take this information seriously and open a formal investigation into Mr. Lighty’s death. I have met with a veteran prosecutor in District Attorney’s office to discuss this matter and hope for their continued cooperation in our search for the truth.

JESSICA BROOKS, Darrell “Chris” Lighty’s mother states:

Since my son’s death last August, my family and I have been searching for answers to what really happened to my son and to date, none of the explanations given make sense.
Our investigation has been stalled. Dr. Baden who was retained to do an independent autopsy has been unable to complete his task due to the lack of cooperation from the Medical Examiner’s office. He was brought in to help determine if Darrell’s death was a homicide or suicide. It is almost a year later and we still don’t have the answer.
Today, I am begging, Mr. Johnson, the Bronx District Attorney, to make my son’s death a priority and work with our investigator to really look into the facts and circumstances leading up to his untimely death. We have uncovered real information that needs to be followed up on by those in authority.

I am attaching a link to an online petition that we will forward to the DA’s office asking them to start a formal investigation. I am asking everyone interested in justice to please sign it. Thank you.

J. Cole Talks Moving Up Album Release To Compete With Kanye West

2013-05-21T21:51:08.000Z

Billboard writes:

Yesterday (May 20), J. Cole announced he's moving up the release date of his upcoming album, "Born Sinner" to June 18. Initially, his sophomore album was slated for July. Coincidentally, June 18 is also the day that Kanye West debuts his sixth solo studio album, "Yeezus."

"Kanye West is one of the greatest artists of our generation. Which is exactly why I'm moving my release date up," he tweeted.

Soon after the announcement, J. Cole told Billboard's The Juice that not only was he aware of Kanye West's "Yeezus" release date, but once someone confirmed it, he decided to move up "Born Sinner" to June 18 to compete. "Instantly the lightbulb [turned on]... it got real. I made one phone call to somebody that would know, just to make sure first. As soon as I got it confirmed, I was like, 'Yo…' The idea hit me instantly: 'You got to go to that date,'" he said.

"I'm not going to sit [here]... I worked too hard to come a week later after Kanye West drops an amazing album. It'd be like, 'Oh and J.Cole dropped too, a week later.' Nah. I'm going to go see him on that date. He's the greatest. So it's like, I'm a competitor by nature so it was instant, it wasn't even a thought," the Roc Nation artist continued.

J.Cole's competitive move is testament to how strongly he believes in himself and his full-length opus: "It's a definite statement about how I feel about my album, which is confident."

Going up against Kanye West -- and Mac Miller's "Watching Movies With the Sound Off" album which also comes out on June 18 -- is strictly competitve for J. Cole and far from anything but so. "At the same time, let's not forget this is Kanye West. He bets 100, 1,000, whatever the perfect is. His track record is flawless. I'm only expecting an incredible album from him," he said.

"But I know what I have."
