Back in 2011, the rapper was sentenced to eight years in prison, stemming from a 2009 stabbing that took the life of a 20-year-old named Christopher Guerrero.
Tru Life was originally charged with murder, but struck a plea deal, where he pleaded guilty to second-degree gang assault and got eight years. His brother, Marcus Rosad, pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter and received a 10 year sentence.
At the peak of his buzz, Tru Life was expected to be a cornerstone of Jay-Z's then-burgeoning, Latin-orientated Roc La Familia label, but he never released a project with the label.
