A Murder Inc. record executive was arrested Thursday
in Los Angeles on federal firearm charges stemming from the raid of the label’s
offices in January.
Authorities took Dexter Ottley, 38, in custody
alleging they found a .25 caliber gun in his desk during the raid. Along with
Ottley, another exec at Murder Inc, Tarik Williams and Cadillac Tah were also
arrested.
Williams and Tah were released without being
charged.
Murder Inc. and Irv Gotti have been the focus
of a Federal Investigation on connections between the music label and New York
City legend Kenneth “Supreme” McGriff.
In related news, Murder Inc is preparing the
release of Caddillac Tah’s debut album, POV Hustler. The album is slated
for a June 10 street date as the single, “I Gotcha Ma,” has begun
to receive heavy airplay.
"Tah’s album is guaranteed lock and load,"
Gotti told AllHipHop.com. "I gotta pick the tuesday in JUne, but we will
probably release Tah’s album June 10. Tah’s album is no joke, sh*t is hot."
