In the 1980s, few people were more feared in Brooklyn than ex-Rikers Island inmate and legendary street figure Jimmy Rosemond, aka “Jimmy Henchman,” or “Jimmy Ace.” In 1991, Jimmy co-founded the first Hip-Hop Mega conference called How Can I Be Down, and in due course, founded Czar Entertainment where he managed top music artists & athletes. In June of 2011, Jimmy was arrested by DEA Agents and US Marshalls, after being on the run for months. Jimmy was charged with what is called “The Kingpin Statute.” They alleged that Jimmy was the leader of a nationwide, drug organization that was using the cover of his Hip-Hop music business and recording studios to transport close to 30 kilos of cocaine a month. So how on earth did this story of success and smart business savvy end up in a high-profile criminal trial and NINE life sentences?
