More than two decades on, the suspects in the slaying of Jam Master Jay have yet to stand trial. As reported by AllHipHop, one of the two people charged in connection with the 2002 killing of the iconic DJ, Kal Jordan, Jr., allegedly sought out a witness at JMJ's funeral, asking if they had seen who shot the DJ. AllHipHop also mentioned that the witness, referred to as “Witness 7,” thought that Jordan was trying to intimidate them and find out if they had spotted him at the time of the murder. Furthermore, the documents state that Jordan admitted in a jail call that “Witness 6” had put him at the scene and discussed other potential witnesses who could implicate him. Additionally, “Witness 5” is said to have seen Jordan threaten to kill someone with a gun, which led them to contact the police and report Jordan's possession of a gun and dealing in narcotics. A search of Jordan's property in 2004 then revealed two loaded firearms, a bulletproof vest, cocaine, marijuana, and glassine envelopes for packaging narcotics, confirming the testimonies of “Witness 2” that Jordan had been storing guns in a van outside his house prior to the murder. If convicted, Jordan could be looking at a minimum of 25 years in jail.
Jam Master Jay was part of the influential hip-hop group Run DMC, which helped popularise the music genre in the 1980s.
