FAMILY OF NOTORIOUS B.I.G. SUE AGAIN
The family of NOTORIOUS B.I.G. has filed another wrongful death lawsuit against the City of Los Angeles in connection with the slain rapper’s death.
The hip-hop star - born Christopher Wallace - was shot dead in his car after leaving a Vibe magazine party following the 11th Annual Soul Train Music Awards in Los Angeles in 1997. His murder has remained unsolved to this day.
The legal papers were filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Monday (16Apr07) by the star’s mother Voletta Wallace, his singer widow Faith Evans, and his two children.
The new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ.com, follows a previous court action filed in a federal court in 2005, but this time names two former police officers as co-defendants, who are alleged to have been involved in the "very efficient, organised and professional" crime.
The Wallace family are suing for unspecified general, compensatory and punitive damages.
