Diddy’s former bodyguard and former VladTV guest Gene Deal recently spoke about the 1999 shooting that landed Shyne in jail for ten years. While speaking to ‘The Art of Dialogue,’ Deal was candid about what happened from his point of view and ultimately accused Diddy of snitching on Shyne to avoid jail.
Deal spoke about where he was with Diddy previously, saying Diddy and Jennifer Lopez were in the Hamptons while he had the day off. He noted the couple arrived at the nightclub where the incident went down while with Anthony “Wolf” Jones ahead of Shyne getting there. Deal said they were “beefing with some dudes who packed a certain part of the bar,” and a man tossed money in Diddy’s face before saying, “we got money.” From there, a fight broke out.”
Deal went on to say there were people “making statements against Shyne” and alluded to Diddy throwing Shyne under the bus. The former Diddy bodyguard said, “They came to Shyne, and they asked Shyne for 20 racks ’cause they had somebody that was gonna make sure all of them got off ’cause they was not going to agree to none of them charges, and they was on the jury stand,” he says. “Shyne may not admit to it, but he knows that to be true. So now, the reason they got off was people was coming to Bad Boy security and said that they were there.”
A final detail Deal added recalled what Shyne said in response to the witnesses against him. “He was like, ‘You supposed to be my brother, and you got people testifying against me?’ Those people were testifying, they were brought to Puff first, saying what they saw against Shyne, what they saw Shyne do. The D.A. didn’t even know those people existed,” said Deal. Watch above.
