Taxstone Found Guilty of Manslaughter


Seven years ago rapper Taxstone was arrested for the murder of rapper Troy Ave's bodyguard Ronald McPhatter [click here if you missed that].

Taxtone has been found guilty...

Darryl Campbell, better known as the rapper and hip-hop podcaster Taxstone, was convicted Thursday in New York of manslaughter in connection with the 2016 shooting of a bodyguard during a concert at Irving Plaza.
A jury in Manhattan found Taxstone guilty of shooting and killing Ronald McPhatter and seriously injuring three others.
He will be sentenced next month for what District Attorney Alvin Bragg called a "tragic and deadly confrontation in a packed New York City music venue."

I remember this. He and Charlamagne were really tight at one point, but the shooting was on video and everyone knew that man was guilty. I wonder why it took 7 years to convict him

Never heard of him and after reading what happened it serves him right to be guilty. If it started out as a fist fight, it should end as a fist fight. Shooting someone when it isn’t self defense is cowardly. Enjoy that prison slop and no privacy, dusty!

10:19 My man is a DJ and knew Suave as well, and said he was a good dude. He was hurt when this happened. Glad to see another supporter of the victim. A lot of females are feeling bad for Taxstone like he didn’t murder someone and was caught on video! Smh.
