2Pac’s Alleged Gunman From Quad Studios Shooting Released After Nearly 30 Years In Prison

Entertaiment

2pac's All Eyez On Me Album Photo Shoot

After spent 27 years in prison, the suspected shooter in the 1994 shooting of 2Pac at New York’s Quad Studios has been released.

The New York Times reports that earlier this month, 61-year-old Walter “King Tut” Johnson was freed from prison after the same judge who had originally given him five life terms decided that Johnson had made good on his social obligations.

In retrospect, Frederick Block, the presiding judge at the time of Johnson’s 1997 sentencing on robbery charges, claims that the obligatory life sentence under the “three-strikes” law was disproportionate.

Shakur himself would implicate Johnson, as well as fellow Brooklyn gangsters Jacques “Haitian Jack” Agnant and James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond of conspiring against him.

The shooting at Quad Studios is also thought to have been the impetus behind the East Coast vs. West Coast rap controversy since 2Pac thought that fellow deceased rap legend The Notorious B.I.G. knew about the scheme against him but chose not to tell him.

This would lead Shakur to wage war against Biggie up until his death in September 1996 after being fatally wounded in a drive-by shooting.
