Jam Master Jay ‘Was Worried,’ Started Carrying a Gun Days Before He Was Killed

Jam Master Jay, Run-DMC's late DJ, was worried something bad would happen and started carrying a gun days before he was murdered, a trial witness says

The late Run-DMC DJ's cousin testified in the Brooklyn trial for two men accused of killing Jay that one of the defendants had warned "something bad is going to happen" When Kellman asked Watford how he could recall the day of the shooting so vividly, when investigators had found inconsistencies in other statements he’d given, he said, “2002 was a tragedy in my life.” “But I just had to try to see if he was alive.” When she felt safe enough to go into the room where the shooting occurred after the killers fled, she asked Rincon where Mizell, whose body was on the floor, where the DJ had been shot.
