The former NYPD commander charged with taking bribes in the form of a hotel room and a prostitute during a 2019 corruption trial, but acquitted by a jury, has resurfaced as a private investigator.
A former NYPD commander accused of corruption has been hustling two jobs, including one as a private investigator in the murder of drill rapper Pop Smoke, and another as a Staten Island real estate agent, The Post has learned.
Now, Grant is billed in the docuseries “Hip Hop Homicides” as a private eye who uses police sources for information about the high-profile 2020 homicide of the 20-year-old Brooklyn rapper in Los Angeles. “This looks like in my opinion … a couple kids decided that they were going to go in that house and rob him,” Grant says.
“Hey, Van, What up?” Grant says over the phone. “I did an extensive social media check and I got this tape.”Former NYPD Commander James Grant was cleared of criminal charges in NYC and appeared in the show.She says she met the rapper backstage at a West Coast music festival and later went to his studio.“It was like a couple seconds and I hear the noise,” she said. “The guy was in the mask and his gun was like looking at me, you know. His eyes make me so scared. They run to the restroom.
