The shooting of 50 Cent was a pivotal moment in his life and career, dramatically impacting his personal and public image. The circumstances remain mysterious, with various theories suggesting it was due to his involvement in the drug trade or a personal dispute. Court testimony indicated that a three-person hit squad targeted him after he released a song disparaging drug kingpin Kenneth “Supreme” McGriff.
The man who shot 50 Cent, Darryl ‘Hommo’ Baum, was killed three weeks later. The event heightened 50 Cent’s awareness of his mortality, inspiring him to work harder and achieve his goals and later releasing the song “Many Men”.
“When I was shot, Hommo pulled the trigger. He was part of Mike Tyson’s board,” 50 Cent stated.
Meanwhile CBS has learned from law enforcement that the Donald Trump shooter was killed the Secret Service counter assault team. The shower was on an elevated platform.
Comedian Andrew Shultz also added to the commentary stating, “The boogie man is coming back to 1600.”
President Biden in a statement Saturday evening condemned the shooting saying he would be speaking with Donald Trump later. NBC confirmed that two persons in total are confirmed dead due to the incident.
Trump posted on his social media platform, Truth Social a confirmation that a bullet pierced the upper part of his right ear. “I was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear. I knew immediately that something was wrong in that I heard a whizzing sound, shots, and immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin,” the Former President stated.
44th President Barrack Obama tweeted, “There is absolutely no place for political violence in our democracy. Although we don’t yet know exactly what happened, we should all be relieved that former President Trump wasn’t seriously hurt, and use this moment to recommit ourselves to civility and respect in our politics. Michelle and I are wishing him a quick recovery.
