Heltah Skeltah’s Rock Cleared of Attempted Murder Charge

Filed under:


Back in January 2008, authorities locked up Jamal "Rock" Bush, one-half of the rap duo Heltah Skeltah, after he was accused of shooting and subsequently paralyzing a gang member and pimp in Brooklyn. Rock spent nine days at Rikers Island before posting a $125,000 bond.

But it looks as though Rock can breathe easy. After his case went to trial yesterday, Rock has been found not guilty on charges of attempted murder, assault in the first degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree. Duck Down Records broke the news that Rock was acquitted from his charges.
