Jayson Scott, the 23-year-old son of “All The Way Up” rapper Remy Ma, has been arrested on a murder charge stemming from the fatal 2021 shooting of a man from Queens, New York.
First reported by Fox 5′s Lisa Evers, NYPD has confirmed Scott’s arrest alongside another man, 22-year-old Richard Swygert, on first-degree murder charges of 43-year-old Darius Guillebeaux, who was killed in broad daylight three years ago.
The shooting took place on the intersection of 148th Street and Rockaway Boulevard in Springfield Gardens on June 7, 2021, during which Guillebeaux was hit in the head and chest. The motive behind the shooting is still unclear. Investigators are also looking into the possibility that it was a murder for hire.
Scott and Swygert were also hit with criminal possession of a weapon and reckless endangerment charges.
The unfortunate news comes one decade after his mother, Remy Ma, was released from prison after serving six years of her eight-year sentence. The There’s Something About Remy: Based On A True Story MC was convicted of intentional assault after shooting a member of her entourage over $3,000 in 2007, according to The New York Times.
One year after her release, the Bronx rhymer took to social media to reflect on her life behind bars, writing, “At this moment 1 year ago I was sitting in a cell wondering when I was coming home. I had actually gave up hoping that it would even happen. I was supposed to be released July 31, 2014 & I had woke up on August 1, 2014 STILL in prison; I was devastated. Yet, by the grace of my merciful God, I was able to awake the next day at home, in my bed, and post my 1st selfie. At this moment I was so happy but still in shock that I was actually ‘free.’”
