According to the NY Daily News, police have arrested two thugs for the murder of DJ Megatron, a popular New York DJ who worked for BET 106 & Park.
Police charged William Williams, 21, and Richard Cromwell, 20, with murder, robbery and criminal possession of a handgun. They were awaiting arraignment Wednesday night.
Police say Megatron, real name Corey McGriff, 32, was on the hunt for marijuana around 2 a.m. March 27 when the two men approached him on Osgood Avenue, about a block from his Staten Island brownstone.
McGriff’s 4-year-old son, who was left home alone, may have watched from the doorway of the family residence as one of the suspects shot his father once in the chest.
Williams and Cromwell, who both have lengthy criminal records, rifled through McGriff’s pockets, robbing him of a wad of cash and an inexpensive wristwatch that his 11-year-old daughter had given him as a gift.
The watch held sentimental value for McGriff, according to his grieving mother, Louvenia McGriff, 60. “He loved it because she gave it to him,” she told the NY Daily News from her Georgia home.
Police recovered the watch after it was discarded by McGriff’s heartless murderers. “They threw it away probably because they realized it wasn’t valuable,” she said.
An anonymous caller gave police the tip they needed to apprehend the suspects. “That is a risky think to do,” McGriff’s mother said of the anonymous caller.
“They’re sacrificing themselves for justice. That speaks volumes about my son. I’m so grateful to everybody for what they’ve done.”
She said the family is preparing to see the alleged killers in court.
“I want to look in their eyes and I want to know why they had to kill him,” she said. “Why kill him?”
“It’s a hard thing to swallow,” said her husband, Leo McGriff. “We’ll be doing a lot of crying.”
Kudos to those people who anonymously gave the cops the info they needed to apprehend these idiots.
I pray for this victim’s kids.
21 and 20?
<<<<<<smh
All this over a weed run smh…stay inside folks.
Jesus be a fence around our young black men
God bless his kids and family
Good Morning
Morning Daisy
Uneducated black men, dont make no sense Robbing and murdering that man! And at the end of the day your still gonna be broke. How do 2 grown azz men come up with a plan to ACT so COWARDLY! If they (and the rest of the cowards in the world) knew/understood the HISTORY of the BLACK MAN’s trials and Tribulations, they wouldn’t even think to EVER take another BLACK MANS LIFE I send my prayers
it’s good that someone bypassed that ‘No Snitching’ rule and told the police what they knew. it’s sad that his son watched this happen. smh.
*recalls the other story* sooo they left him with $1 in his pocket? i say this bc there was a big deal about him not having money in his pocket and being broke and drug dealers not taking debit cards.
anywho, if these are truly the people that killed him i hope justice is served.
@Candi
All irrelevant.
That’s what I thought about too. And the statement about a woman paying his bills.
Glad they caught the murderers.
“you got a dollar in yo pocket….a twenty in yo wallet”….. naw, lemme stop this is serious. Sad story. Feel so bad for the kids.
Umm Sandra did you hear anything about a youtube video in regards to this case?
@ blu
shutup! i started singing the same song when i read this..
Was this his normal weed man?? I dont smoke, but I thought ppl usually went to the same person?
Sad state of affiars!
I just finish reading the post below about the NBA players holding hands. Stuff like this makes me wish that they were holding hands in unity versus killing another for whatever reason.
I wish people would have the same drive to work hard and reap the benefits as they do robbing, killing, and drug dealing.
@Kingston … it was Candi fault. lmfaooooo
Most of the commentary Sandra provides with her news is irrelevant to any actual facts and messy to boot.
lmfaooooooooo @ YSO
Sandra has a way of taking facts and throwing in her opinion to make it look as if her opinions are part of the fact.
How stupid can you get? Took a life for no reason at all. Idiots really drive me crazy.
Morning YSO, BLU, ALEX, Daisy and all others

So, you have a problem with ppl with short arms and legs and big tummies? I can’t help the way I look.
It’s good to know the police are acting on anonymous tips from citizens. I’m glad that not everyone lives by that whole stop snitching thing.
Hey @ THERAPIST
@Tink
I work out everyday!!! I lost 26 lbs over the past 15 yrs!!
@Yso

@1911 YEAP….Texas test the chit outta this students. They have the math on April 28th. They in groups now working on packets. LOL. What grade level you teach?
@RATCHET
26 lbs huh?
Bowel movements alone don’t count as “weight loss” you know.
And this is not about a weed run…it’s about two low lives who decided it wasn’t enough to just rob the man, but they had to murder him as well.
I am all for snitching tattling whatever you want to call it I hate the whole No snitching thing

Go ahead. Pay close attention at the 1:10 mark.
It’s a damn shame that a 20 and 21 year old have criminal records for grand larceny, rape, robbery, and now murder. SMDH.
May this man RIP, and my prayers are with his family.
Good Morning

GOOD MORNING AND CHIT SR FAM
@KINGSTON IM LIKING THAT DRAKE GRAVI HE LOOKN SEXAY WITH THAT FACIAL HAIR
is anybody else wondering about the whole 4yr old left home alone while he went on a weed run? Something isnt adding up. I dont think(or at least i hope not) he was planning on leaving from right in front of the house wit a 4yr old there alone. Smokers usually buy from their normal weedman too. I think there’s more to this story.
@Yso

It never fails. Someone else will always check out the link too. Po lil Tink Tink!!
@Blu I’m currently Director of Special Education for an Elementary school. Prior to coming here I taught at a Special Education High School.
Yes we are testing now also!!! I hope we make AYP……no we will make AYP bc we prepare our students
@Kingston….yes Vjackson was being sarcastic at least I hope. Think it was in reference to the post below this one about the NBA players holding hands
Fck U ratchet and everything you luv….
being nosey is in my nature, a (losing) battle I fight everyday

@ laker
isn’t he? i just posting so I can see his face.
It’s all about knowing when and when-not to snitch…
I can’t stand snitch ass co-workers who run to go tell about something that aint even got nothing to do with them, and aint affecting them in no way…
On the flip side, if I see some strangers robbing my neighbors house, YOU DAMN SKIPPY I’M GONNA SNITCH TO THE COPS!!!
…..Now if somebody murdered a pedophile, and I know who did it I AINT TELLING SHIT!!!!
Wow @ KIMIP
Gorgeous Gravi lady.

When I first logged into SR and saw the two stories and went to the NBA story this is exactly what I thought of.
So sad but glad they found some suspects.
If I secretly see my co-worker stealing the white man’s products at the job…KUDOS! that’s they problem, because at the end of the day, if they continue with it they will eventually get caught…BUT I AINT TELLING SQUAT!!!
thank you Yso
^^^^^^
Did you loose some pounds?
You’re welcome.
Just thought I’d say something nice before the SR hounds come baying and slobbering.
@2012
You can be so f*cking rude sometimes.
@Blu….from your stories I assumed your kids were SPED lol bc that’s the stuff my students qould ask/say
Damn shame you have a lengthly criminal record before you’re even legal.
Hello All. 10 people shot/stabbed in DC last nite, 5 die from their wounds. What else is new in the hood? Peace.
@pink…
yeap truly sad how we sometimes think and make an issue. When young brothers are killing themselves. I’m sure some brothers were holding hands when they walked during the Civil Rights movements.

You’re being sarcastic right?
@PAHairston
Whuuuut???

We need to get rid of the word ” sarcastic ”
Too many ghetto folks over use it.
@Dimps…..beautiful gravie ma
@PAHair….wth, where in DC?
Sarcastic this sarcastic that…
Damn, I’m sure it has synonyms
@2012
Just because you don’t know what it means doesn’t mean it’s being overused.

From your gravatar, I suspect you are a pisces?
(still in YSoParanoid mode but wants to see wher this is going)
I enjoy shopping; especially with other people’s money.
I’m a homebody and I’m afraid to fly anyway.
@2012 Nope.
But why would you think that based on the gravatar? *curious*
@YSoSerious
Yep! you are an Aries!
Are you African?
@Yso Next they’re gonna ask you do you like long walks on the beach? I think 2012 has a crush on you
@Henny Blaque
Because pisces loooove weird looking stuff. Their life is a fantasy.
@Mamacita
I might have a crush on you with that gravatar…
Oh

But nope not a Pisces, and the 2 that I know dont fit that description.
@2012

@MAMA
I don’t know what’s going on but I’m trying to be nicer and chit.
She said the family is preparing to see the alleged killers in court.
“I want to look in their eyes and I want to know why they had to kill him,” she said. “Why kill him?”

NEVER EVER Understood this train of ILLOGICAL Thought…
IF You’re aren’t going to put A BULLET IN THESE MFers HEAD then WHAT’S The POINT or PURPOSE of WANTING TO SEE THEM (In That Way…)
THESE FOOLS don’t give A Flying F-U-C-K about YOU or Your SON that’s WHY they did what they did… WHEN People (As A WHOLE…) start caring enough about their SLAIN Relatives by KILLING The Murderers then THIS Kind of Foolishness will only MORE (Real…)
And That’s —> HAPPEN MORE (Real…)
Sad situation all around. Nothing funny about it. Sad, rip. Pray for the kiddies.
