Biggie's Estate Files Motion Showing That Witness In Rapper?s Murder Case Is Lying

The estate of slain rapper Christopher Wallace, also known as Notorious B.I.G., has filed a motion in federal court discounting accusations made by an inmate who claimed that the Wallace family and one of its lawyers bribed him to testify that the Los Angeles Police Department took part in the rapper?s killing.
As reported earlier, Waymond Anderson, who is currently serving life for murder, revealed in an August deposition that that he lied about the LAPD?s involvement in Biggie?s killing as part of a ?scam? concocted by two other convicts to squeeze a large monetary settlement out of the City of Los Angeles.
Biggie was shot and killed outside a music industry party in Los Angeles in 1997.
His family would file a wrongful death lawsuit against the LAPD and the city of Los Angeles in 2002 accusing crooked cops of partaking in the rapper?s killing.  The suit sought unspecified damages.
In his deposition, Anderson accused Biggie?s family and one of its lawyer?s, Perry Sanders, of participating in the ?scam? and offering to pay him for false testimony implicating the LAPD.
The 20 plus page motion filed by Biggie?s estate today (October 29), notes that Anderson implicated two LAPD officers in Biggie's murder, David Mack and Rafael Perez, 'long before' the estate sued the city of Los Angeles.
The motion also states that in his deposition, Anderson claimed that during his time at Corcoran state prison, him and his fellow inmate Kenneth Bogani ?participated in conversations with Perry Sanders and LAPD officers Russell Poole and Ya-May Christle to falsely implicate L.A. cops in [Biggie?s] murder?.
Biggie?s estate claims that their motion includes ?certified prison records? that disprove  Anderson?s story because the only time he and Bogani were in Corcoran together to participate in the conversations, was between Feb 27 and June 20, 2001.
The motion shows that between that time period, none of the people Anderson mentioned had anything to do with Biggie?s murder case.
Biggie?s estate hired Sanders in July 2001and their suit was filed in 2002.  In addition, Poole had retired in 1999 and Christle didn?t start working on the Biggie murder case until 2005.
Anderson had also claimed that he witnessed Bogani and Mario Hammonds, another inmate, concoct stories to tie Perez, Mack, and former Death Row Records CEO Suge Knight to Biggie?s murder.
Biggie?s estate say that their motion includes documents that prove Bogani and Hammonds gave their statements implicating Perez, Mack and Knight, 'long before Feb 27, 2001, the earliest Anderson could have witnessed such a conspiracy'.
Biggie?s estate believes that there is a third party involved in Anderson?s ?wholesale perjury? which intends to ?disseminate lies to the media to negatively affect public sentiment and the jury pool.?
?Anderson alone has no such obvious motive, which ... indicates third-party involvement,? the motion stated.
The motion is also asking for access to Anderson?s phone and prison-visitation records for the last ten years to reveal who is behind his perjury and who is responsible for Biggie?s murder.
