Arrest Made in Big L Case
Bronx suspect arrested for Big L's shooting and charged with second-degree murder
Police arrested Gerard Woodley in the Bronx on Thursday, May 13,
for fatal shooting of Big L, charging him with second-degree
murder|. At the time of his death, L had two brothers in prison.
"It's a good possibility it was retaliation for something [Big L's]
brother did, or [Woodley] believed he had done," said Lt. Ellen
Caniglia, spokesperson for the NYPD. Woodley has been arrested on
two prior murder charges, once in 1990 and again in 1996, but
wasn't convicted either time. Woodley is also wanted on a federal
warrant for drug trafficking, said Caniglia, adding that he is the
only suspect in the case, which police now consider closed. Woodley
is currently being held without bail. Big L's crew, Diggin' in the
Crates, is scheduled to release their collective full-length debut,
tentatively titled All Luv, on Tommy Boy Records this
summer.- Werner
