According to information provided by DJ, Ronald "Tinard" Washington, Jam Master Jay was carrying a gun on him the night of his murder.

"That was the first time I ever saw Jay with a gun. He was scared. He didn't say it, but I know Jay. He was scared," said Washington. He maintains that Jam Master Jay gave him $200 to buy ammo for the gun just hours before he was killed.

Washington also claims that he knows who Jam Master Jays killers are, but suspects names have not been released.

Police are somewhat sceptical of the information from Washington because of circumstances that led authorities to suspect Washington of being the killer's lookout.

Washington is presently incarcerated for robbing a hotel clerk in Floral Park, Long Island.

Police have not confirmed that a weapon was recovered at the murder scene but they did confirm that two .45 caliber shells were found in the studio lounge where Jay was killed.

Also Jam Master Jay's mother, Connie Mizell, also believes that something wasn't quite right with her son on the night he was killed.

"A lot of things I hear now make me think something was going on in his life that bothered him," she said.

"There is no way for us to know if he was threatened or afraid. If he thought someone was trying to kill him, he never would have told us, the family. He never would have said something that would have frightened me."
