Den Jacob the Jeweler (http://www.jacobandco.com/about.htm) empfand ich schon immer als einen extrem cleveren Schmuckhändler. Für die Hip Hop Stars hat er so gut wie alles mit Brillis besetzt, was man am Körper tragen kann: Ringe, Brillen, Feuerzeuge, Waffen... Die Hollywoodprominenz liebt ihn. Cool der Typ :gut:
Dann der Absturz. Festnahme wegen Geldwäsche (http://www.vanityfair.com/fame/features/2006/11/jacob200611) im Zusammenhang mit Drogenhandel der Black Mafia Family (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Mafia_Family) in Detroit. 8o
Zum Stand der Dinge: (http://fr.news.yahoo.com/27032007/74/photo/in-this-july-2006-file-photo-released-by-the-united.html) Er soll nun in Detroit vor Gericht, wo diese Mafiafamilie ansässig ist. Jacob wäre lieber in NY vor Gericht gegangen, wo er seinen Firmenhauptsitz hat.
If Jacob is found guilty, he could be facing up to 20 years in prison...
"It's a bunch of bullshit," said the rapper Busta Rhymes, a longtime client and friend of Jacob's. (Rhymes has been in the news recently, having been arrested in August for allegedly assaulting a man who spit on his Maybach.) "Anybody that affiliates themselves with people that are from the street, they always go the extra mile to investigate them. At the end of the day, why would Jacob come this far, purchasing a $12 million building on 57th Street—why would he do anything illegally? Before Jacob, criminals were buying from [lots of high-end jewelers], but you never heard the ****ing feds indict any of these other mother****ing people. What they ****ing with Jacob for?" :D
