As Reported By The NYPost:
James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond was arraigned Wednesday on expanded allegations that he used his music business as cover for his bi-coastal cocaine trafficking ring.
Rosemond appeared in Brooklyn federal court following his indictment on money laundering and obstruction of charges – as well as an additional charge that he ran a criminal enterprise while smuggling kilos of cocaine in music industry equipment packing cases from Los Angeles to New York.
Assistant US Attorney Todd Kaminsky said at the hearing that evidence against Rosemond includes secretly taped “wire” recordings, e-mails written by the hip-hop impresario, and shipping records.
The IRS is planning to seize several properties that Rosemond supposedly used to run the cocaine ring, officials said Wednesday.
