The plea proceeding was held before United States Magistrate Judge Peggy Cross-Goldenberg. When sentenced, Bryant faces a mandatory minimum term of 15 years in prison and up to 20 years in prison. This sentence also applies to separate narcotics trafficking and firearms charges to which Bryant already pleaded guilty and that were accepted by United States District Judge Brian M. Cogan on December 2, 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Joseph Nocella, Jr., United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, Bryan DiGirolamo, Special Agent in Charge, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, New York Division (ATF New York), and Jessica S. Tish, Commissioner, New York City Police Department (NYPD) announced the guilty plea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cMore than two decades after the cold-blooded, execution-style killing of Mr. Mizell, an exhaustive investigation revealed Bryant\u2019s role and today he finally admitted his guilt,\u201d stated United States Attorney Nocella. \u201cThe prosecutors in our Office and our law enforcement partners never give up, no matter how long it takes, in the pursuit of justice for the victim and the victim\u2019s family.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Mr. Nocella expressed his appreciation to the NYPD Intelligence Division, Suffolk County District Attorney\u2019s Office, Queens County District Attorney\u2019s Office, Columbia Borough Police Department in Pennsylvania, and the Dominican Republic National Police for their work on the case.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cJustice in the murder of Jam Master Jay has been pursued with determination and resolve for more than two decades. The defendant\u2019s role in facilitating access for the killers was integral to this crime,\u201d stated ATF New York Special Agent in Charge DiGirolamo. \u201cToday\u2019s guilty plea reflects the dedication of law enforcement and prosecutors who never stopped working to bring accountability for the victim and his family. We are grateful for the partnership of ATF NY\u2019s Joint Firearms Task Force\u2013Long Island, ATF Philadelphia Allentown Office, NYPD, and the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office for the Eastern District of New York.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cThe defendant\u2019s guilty plea reflects the relentless work of NYPD detectives to hold criminals accountable, no matter how much time has passed,\u201d stated NYPD Commissioner Tisch. \u201cJason Mizell was brutally murdered over 20 years ago, but thanks to our investigators, along with our partners at the ATF and the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office for the Eastern District of New York, this case was never forgotten, and those who are responsible are now being held accountable.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As alleged in court filings, between the 1990s and 2002, separate from his music career, Mizell was involved in arranging for the sale of kilogram-quantities of cocaine in the Eastern District of New York and elsewhere. In August 2002, Mizell acquired approximately 10 kilograms of cocaine on consignment from a supplier. The cocaine was intended to be distributed in Maryland by co-defendants Karl Jordan, Jr., Ronald Washington, and other co-conspirators. A dispute between Washington and one of the co-conspirators in Baltimore resulted in Mizell cutting Washington and Jordan out of the Maryland drug deal worth almost $200,000. Following this betrayal, Washington and Jordan continued in the larger narcotics conspiracy until they ultimately cut out Jason Mizell by murdering him on October 30, 2002.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On October 30, 2002, Mizell was present at his recording studio, \u201c24\/7,\u201d located on Merrick Boulevard in Jamaica, Queens. At approximately 7:30 p.m., Bryant entered the building containing the recording studio and opened a locked fire escape exit door to allow Jordan and Washington to enter the building without being seen by Mizell. Jordan and Washington entered the recording studio, armed with firearms. Washington pointed his firearm at an individual and demanded she lay on the floor, and Jordan approached Mizell and fired two shots at close range, striking Mizell once in the head and killing him. The second shot struck another individual in the leg.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Assistant United States Attorneys Mark E. Misorek, Miranda Gonzalez, and Andrew D. Wang are in charge of the prosecution, with the assistance of Paralegal Specialist Samantha Schroder.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center;
