Two men have been found guilty of murdering Run-DMC’s Jam Master Jay, putting an end to one of hip hop’s longest-running cold cases.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A jury in Brooklyn Federal Court convicted both defendants Ronald Washington and Karl Jordan Jr. guilty on Tuesday, less than a month after the trial began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jay was killed down more than 21 years ago on the evening of October 30, 2002, when prosecutors claimed Washington and Jordan both ambushed him at his studio over a botched heroin deal, with Jordan killing him at close range with multiple rounds to the head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
