NYC- Rapper G. Dep, who turned himself in to police after 13 years for an unsolved murder may be released sooner than expected, according to a report.
After a decade into his prison sentence, the prosecutor who argued to have the rapper, whose real name is Trevell Coleman, put behind bars and the judge who sentenced him are both asking Gov. Kathy Hochul to now release him, reports Gothamist.
In 2010, Coleman walked into a precinct and told detectives that he believed he killed a man during a robbery gone wrong in 1993. Police went through the precincts log book and found an unsolved homicide case that matched Coleman’s description.
He was charged soon after.
He told detectives that he one night he attempted to rob a man that was standing alone underneath the train tracks on Park Ave. When the victim refused to hand over his belongings, Coleman fired three shots and fled the scene.
He was unaware that the man died.
Coleman struggled with what he did, police said. He told detectives that at the time of the robbery, he had just dropped out of college to become a successful rapper and to sell drugs to get by in Harlem.
