"Guns don't kill people, Rappers do.."

Local rapper pleads guilty to 2002 murder


A popular Chicago rapper pleaded guilty today to second-degree murder in the shooting death of an acquaintance.

Darnell Smith, 35, who goes by the name "Belo" as part of the Chicago rap group Do or Die, was charged in the November 2002 murder of Raynard Pinkston. Prosecutors said both Smith and Pinkston were involved in a quarrel about drug sales. Pinkston, 19, struck and threatened Smith, according to prosecutors. Smith then pulled out a gun and shot Pinkston, prosecutors said.

Drugs, illegal guns, and rap.

Must be those Rural White Men's fault again.

Laura, any comments?
