Talk:The Murder of Biggie Smalls

---Errors in the text---

This article has multiple errors. With regard to the 2002 LAT two part series by Philips the article was NOT retracted. In connection with the evidence the Wallace family produced to show that Biggie was in New York/New Jersey at the time of Shakur's killing, The New York Times called it "inconclusive" noting:

The pages purport to be three computer printouts from Daddy's House, indicating that Wallace was in the studio recording a song called Nasty Boy on the afternoon Shakur was shot. They indicate that Wallace wrote half the session, was In and out/sat around and laid down a ref, shorthand for a reference vocal, the equivalent of a first take.But nothing indicates when the documents were created. And Louis Alfred, the recording engineer listed on the sheets, said in an interview that he remembered recording the song with Wallace in a late-night session, not during the day. He could not recall the date of the session but said it was likely not the night Shakur was shot. We would have heard about it, Mr. Alfred said."

In fact, Philips theory, based on years of research, is the best supported theory of slaying. The Assistant Managing Editor of the LA Times Mark Duvoisin wrote: "Philips' story has withstood all challenges to its accuracy, ...[and] remains the definitive account of the Shakur slaying.". For many years the Poole/Sullivan/Broomfield theory involving Suge Knight, rogue cops and conspiracies between the police department and indeed the LA times was the going theory.Philips withstood savaging (mostly in blogs) by their camp until the Poole/Sullivan/Broomfields theory excruciatingly slow death of late.

In light of these facts, It seems appropriate that your correct your information.
