An associate of rap troupe THE DIPLOMATS made an unwanted TV appearance in America over the weekend (24-25May08) when he was featured on crime show AMERICA'S MOST WANTED.
Carlos Thompson, 32, is wanted by authorities in New York for his alleged involvement in the murder of a Harlem teenager.
The bodyguard and crew member is accused of giving 13-year-old L'Mani Delima a gun and ordering him to shoot fellow teen Phoenix Garrett, for selling The Diplomats CDs illegally, according to website AllHipHop.com.
Delima reportedly shot Garrett five times in what New York police officials are calling a "contract hit."
A nationwide manhunt is now underway for Thompson, following the alert on America's Most Wanted on Saturday (24May08).
The dead teen's father, James Garrett, appeared on the TV show, revealing he has been left broken hearted by his son's death.
He said, "I have to live the rest of my life being what I call the walking dead. There's not a moment, not a second, that I'm not thinking of my son."
Delima has already been convicted of Garrett's murder and will be sentenced next month (Jun08).
