Chinx Murder Suspect Sentenced to 23 Years in Prison
One of the two men convicted in the 2015 killing of Chinx has been sentenced to 23 years in federal prison. Quincy Homere pleaded guilty to manslaughter during his court hearing in July, a charge with a maximum penalty of 25 years.
According to Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz, Homere had fired multiple rounds at Chinx, whose real name is Lionel Du Fon Pickens, in a drive-by shooting while he was stopped at a red light.
“I’d like to express my condolences to the family and anyone else that was affected with what happened here,” Homere said in a statement to the court, per Billboard. “I don’t believe there’s words that can express the way I feel about what transpired here.”
The case for Homere’s co-defendant, Jamar Hill, is still pending as he’s incarcerated on a separate charge.
Chinx was signed to French Montana’s record label and had appeared on several of Montana’s Coke Boys mixtapes. Chinx’s widow Janelli Caceres, with whom he had three children, also gave a statement in court.
“I was told I had two minutes to say goodbye, holding his mother’s hand, watching his lifeless body praying and crying for him to wake up,” she said. “A mother has to bury her son. At the age of 28 I had became a widow. My children, who were 15, 11 and 4, are now without a dad.”
