Lil Kim’s ex-boyfriend Damion “World” Hardy went to trial on Wednesday for allegedly ordering multiple murders and leading a drug gang. This all dates back to a decade ago.
According to the New York Times
Hardy was reportedly the leader of a gang called the Cash Money Brothers, which is accused of commiting multiple murders and importing and trafficking narcotics for more than a decade, Hardy was first arrested in 2004 for his involvement in drug trafficking.
Hardy was charged with “racketeering conspiracy, narcotics trafficking conspiracy, use of firearms and six murders in aide of racketeering,” in January of 2008.
Official court documents say
“He’s accused of ordering the assassination of a bouncer at a Brooklyn roller-skating rink in 1998 and that of a former bodyguard of Mike Tyson in 2003, according to NY Daily News.”“He handed out death sentences with a simple line: ‘he has to go,'” prosecuted Rena Paul said during Brooklyn Federal Court. “World’s order was to kill on sight.”
What makes things so complex is that in 2008 a United States Bureau of Prisons psychologist examined Hardy and they concluded that he suffers from schizophrenia, and he is “incompetent to stand trial.”
Hardy has to be medicated while incarcerated just so that he can be “competent to stand trial in six murders.” Hardy in the past has reportedly attacked guards and even inmates.
The NY Daily News reports that on Wednesday, Judge Frederic Block of Federal District Court in Brooklyn found Hardy “mentally competent.”
Billboard reached out to Lil’ Kim’s management for comment.
