Well I don't know Lamont Personally but I do know they have my Brother in jail for his Murder. It's Crazy because now and days they just catch any black male and say they did it. But to the family of Lamont my brother is no killer and i hope u find who did this. It looks to me as if he was a Gang Member. It seems family want to Cry when there gone. But who told him being in a Gang will get u killed in the long run i doubt anyone. it's not good he got killed because theres no doubt in my mind tht he was a great person. But looking at his nick name "lil bk Movin " he was a Crip and to have that life still means ti die for it and tht aint cool
