Notorious DC drug kingpin Rayful Edmond III, linked to crack epidemic in DC, dies at 60

[@Jesusggjbfthhg]

Why you link Edmonds to the crack epidemic but not the CIA to the crack epidemic

[@docwillis1443]

Because of his skin color?

[@liljohnnyboy]

@Jesusggjbfthhg Because he sold it not the CIA dummy..

He was sick. it's why he got released.

He snitched to get his mom,out of prison.

Kinda, I call it set up. miami is the last place you send him but all his enemies live there. Protection means there is n announcement upon release

This man was directly responsible for thousands of lives lost to the streets and hundreds of thousands of lives ruined by addiction. And these reporters are talking about about him like he was some kind of beloved hero. These people are backwards from the inside out.

[@hjones3888]

No one is forced to take drugs. If they didnt get it from him they would of gotten it from someone else. They were responsible for their own deaths.

[@mikej2133]

He's a hero to Da wyte man because he destroyed his own people. His soul is in big trouble! He destroyed the mother's that was suppose to birth the babies that were suppose to be doctors, lawyers, dentist, teachers, etc. You know, prominent people for OUR community. Yet then as people we say "How come we don't have any black doctors or successful people" 😒

No, heart attack

[@alyssiaalexandria3553]

@@muskegontribune Confirmed or Hearsay? BTW Death records even for a snitch are public record (but only certain people can receive certified copies:) ). Anyway maybe he was scared to death thinking about what would happen to him when he got out and made his triumphant return to the same homicidal streets he left? SMH. RIP supposedly the "afterlife" is bigger than a jail cell or a halfway house so he should be good:).

[@muskegontribune]

@@alyssiaalexandria3553 Its confirmed by the authorities. That man survived 35 years of prison, no way he was scared of the streets. Go look at the video of that man when he was released. He was very happy and didn't look concerned at all.

How do you get out of jail I mean just got out and die?

He didn't die. They put him in witness Protection. He took a page out of Alpo's book

[@Jay86757]

Witness protection, new name, new face, and new identity new location. Rayful, he love the kids always made sure they had tennis shoes and clothes. Rayful, would make sure the kids got good grades and was going to school.😮

You can't love the kids and flood their neighborhoods with crack and violence. Tennis shoes and clothes can't make up for that

[@romanhall2049]

And made sure the kids had crack don’t forget crack

[@cleliaparnell8743]

Why is this being covered as though he was important? Irresponsible of the news...

[@muskegontribune]

Being newsworthy doesn't mean you are a good person. During his time as a DC drug seller, the city was the murder capital of the U.S. He is infamous to say the least.

[@alyssiaalexandria3553]

He passed alright into witness protection:). Hmm so WE are supposed to believe that one year before he was due to get out "for good behavior". he is gone and won't enjoy the parades waiting for him from his beloved "fans"some of whom are still cleaning up HIS mess? Well either he was ummm - helped down the steps toward middle earth (sooner than he expected) by the folks who were not happy about his informant tales) or he tied the sheets(?) or he had some affliction that (statistically) goes undiagnosed in Black Males in his age group - fatal heart attack living too many weights(?). Either way the timing sure is curious? Well RIP, REIII he lead a FULL life 95% was his choosing (the other 5% he did not choose = his parents making him a drug runner for them ,at age 9 (that's love for ya:)! ).
