Previously, James "Jimmy Henchman" Rosemond was hit with a life sentence in prison for his reported role in a murder-for-hire situation involving a former associate of 50 Cent. Since then, Henchman has tried to appeal his conviction. However, news surfaced that the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeal has denied the appeal.

The initial incident found Henchman being convicted for the murder of G-Unit affiliate Lodi Mack, which was reportedly in retaliation from Mack assaulting Henchman’s 14-year-old son at the time. Reports noted Tony Yayo and Lodi Mack were involved in the assault against the son of Henchman, and both were convicted for their part. From there, Henchman reportedly hired a crew to hit Mack a few weeks later after the G-Unit affiliate was released from prison for assault. Lodi Mack was ultimately murdered in the Bronx in 2009.

Jimmy Henchman was previously given two life sentences by a judge for gun and drug convictions not related to this case. One of the trials that resulted in a life conviction for Henchman found his lawyers saying witnesses only testified against Henchman to get their sentences lowered.
