ST. LOUIS (AP) — St. Louis police are investigating the fatal shooting of a young rapper whose group gained some notoriety before one of its three members went to prison earlier this year.

James Johnson Jr. of Ferguson was found dead in the yard behind a St. Louis home about 10 a.m. Sunday. He had been shot in the head. Police have no suspects.

Johnson was known as Swagg Huncho in the group 3 Problems. The group consisted of three 18-year-old cousins — Johnson, Taylor Merriweather of Jennings (known as Lil Tay) and Terrell Brown Jr. of Florissant (known as Relly Rell). Earlier this year, Brown pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Authorities are mystified as to why Swagg Huncho was murdered.

Police are searching for a white conservative who violated Swagg’s safe place.

10 years for 2nd degree murder? Sounds lenient.

If only St. Louis had had midnight basketball, this senseless killing could have been avoided.
