There are now 9,082 unsolved murders in New York City going back to 1985. That figure is a moving target of course. They are adding to that number all the time. Roughly 150 – 200 or more murders go cold every year, and try as they might, they are not going back and solving that many each year (of the older, cold cases).

This is a video tribute to the late bboy Kuriaki (Rock Steady Crew). The footage is from '82-85. He is an old school hero and a true legend! Kuriaki was on day 75 of a solo expedition that had been planned for 65 days, according to the release. Hideki Watanabe, director of a branch of the Japanese Alpine Club in Fukuoka who knows.

Masatoshi Kuriaki, a 42-year-old climber from Fukuoka, Japan, was rescued Sunday at the 8,600-foot level of 14,573-foot Mount Hunter, Denali National Park said in a news release.
Two Of The Original Members of the Rock Steady Crew, Kuriaki and Buck4 were both killed in seperate drug homicides in 1991. The only thing that was known is that kuriaki was tortured and killed execution style in a garage. People have been killed over speaking out on Buck 4’s death hence to this day crazy legs never really dwell or speak on.

That picture was take at one of the Property Clerk warehouses. Those barrels contain homicide evidence.
