The mean streets of Washington, D.C. have proven to be both ruthless, and lucrative for the organized crime cartel known as The Council. Controlled by one of the most notorious gangsters America has ever seen, the Council has reigned relentlessly.
When their leader “Bad Ass” Bobby Chance is murdered he leaves behind a grieving widow, three small children, and a herculean legacy to uphold. His son Spencer Chance becomes of age, and is immediately thrust into the position his father once held.
Young Spencer falls in love with Theresa, the daughter of a local minister. After a few months of dating he takes her on a luxurious vacation then proposes marriage and a life of happily ever after. Just when he thinks everything is going well, all hell breaks loose.
His brother is a young promiscuous lawyer who has an affair with the wife of a ruthless Jamaican drug lord, his sister is a reckless, cold blooded killer who finds herself on the run after she murders the sister of the commanding chief of the Mexican mob, and his mother is an idolized Diva who secretly detests his fiancé and tries everything in her power to drive her away. Like his father he is deadly, loyal, and always puts family first, but when his brother, sister, and mother become a liability he has to choose between family, and the woman he has quickly fallen in love with all while fighting a dual war.
After he sends his entire family to an undisclosed location he sets in motion his plans to end the ongoing war by any means necessary. Through blood, sweat, and tears Spencer conquers his adversaries, and barely makes it out alive as the future of The Council lies in the balance.

OF TWITTER DEATH THREATS

Ke$ha's Producer Dr. Luke Target of Twitter Death Threats

In the search warrant docs, cops point out some of the tweets, including:
-- "You need to be worried because IMA slit your throat before January is over." -- "You ugly fat ass bum bitch.  Im gonna carve u like a pumpkin with a long sharp knife." -- "Im gonna gut you like a fish then skin you and glue ur wrinkly raisin skin to a fridge!" -- I'm gonna slit your F**KIN throat open then gouge your eyeballs out."
Cops are taking the threats seriously, particularly because one tweet gave the home address and phone number of Luke and then invited followers to kill him.

PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN 'I KNOW I'M GONNA DIE'

PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN

'I KNOW I'M GONNA DIE'

Philip Seymour Hoffman was on a heroin binge 6 weeks before he died, and told friends he feared he was destined to fatally OD ... TMZ has learned.Philip Seymour Hoffman -- 'I Know I'm Gonna Die'
Sources Hoffman confided in tell us ... back in December Hoffman told them he had started injecting himself with heroin and couldn't kick it.  Hoffman said he would kick it for a few days and then fall off the wagon.
We're told he went back to AA in a desperate attempt to clean up ... but much to his great frustration it didn't work.
During the last 6 weeks he often look disheveled and dirty.  At one point someone asked him how bad his problem was, and he responded, "If I don't stop I know I'm gonna die."
We're told Hoffman was also drinking excessively ... which opened the door to many bad decisions when it came to heroin use.
Ironically and sadly, we're told Hoffman went to AA meetings over the last 4 years and was considered a "guru," because he had been sober for so long.  Hoffman would give inspirational talks to people who attended.

JUSTIN BIEBER

HE'LL BE SEARCHED INDEFINITELY

BY U.S. CUSTOMS

Justin Bieber -- He'll Be Dogged Indefinitely By U.S. Customs
Justin Bieber's days of breezing in and out of the U.S. are over ... because we're told he will continue to be a target of U.S. Customs every time he comes back to the states.
TMZ broke the story ... when Justin flew into a New Jersey airport from Canada last Friday ... U.S. Customs searched his plane and then grilled him for hours, before letting him leave.  Law enforcement sources tell us ... Custom's flagged Bieber because he's on a Homeland Security watch list for his 2 ongoing criminal cases.
We're told Bieber is subject to the exact same treatment every time he leaves and then re-enters the U.S. -- a thorough search and then exhaustive questioning. 
It's very hard to get off the watch list once you"re on it.  You can appeal to Homeland Security but the agency has broad discretion.  What's more ... if Bieber is found guilty or pleads no contest to any criminal charge, it will be extremely difficult for him to go under the radar again.
As for whether that will cramp his style ... Bieber sources say he just doesn't care.  As one person put it, "He's gonna do what he wants to do."

Rapper Kampane Murder Trial: Accused accomplice ready to testify against ex-boyfriend in Englewood murder trial

Accused accomplice ready to testify against ex-boyfriend in Englewood murder trial


EXCLUSIVE: Prosecutors who already had the brother of a man on trial for murdering the Brooklyn rapper Kampane in Englewood testifying against him picked up another key witness today: the defendant’s ex-girlfriend.
Natuchka Etienne told Superior Court Judge Edward A. Jerejian in Hackensack today that she’s prepared to testify against Randy Manning, whose trial began Tuesday.
In return, accomplice charges that were originally brought against Etienne will be dropped as long as she follows the requirements of the Pre-Trial Intervention Program, including regular phone monitoring, for a year or less. She also must testify against Manning if called.

Etienne, who lived Manning in Brooklyn around the time of the August 2011 murder, was able to return to her native Florida, Jerejian said.
“Just stay out of trouble,” the judge told her. “You can come back in six months and, if everything’s good, the charges can be dismissed.”
Manning is being tried along with Delroy Clarke, who authorities said helped Manning escape after he dumped the burnt body of Rhian “Kampane” Stout in the victim’s Chevy Tahoe on a Paramus cul-de-sac.
Prosecutors said Clarke also helped Manning destroy evidence.
Prosecutors already have Manning’s brother, Cory, who said he saw his brother emerge with a gun from the rear of a Tryon Avenue house in Englewood where Kampane’s body had been burned on Aug. 15, 2011.
Prosecutors said the Glock was used to kill Stoute. It was never recovered.

Evidence that authorities say they do have includes records of cellphone calls made among Randy Manning, Clarke and Etienne; eyewitness testimony of a Paramus neighbor who said he saw Manning leave Stoute’s car, with his body in it, on Village Square West; a bloody footprint on boxes that were found under Stoute’s body in the Tahoe, and clothing tied to the murder that was recovered from a Brooklyn storm drain.
The sweatshirt matches one that the Paramus witness said he saw the man running from the Tahoe wearing, they said.
Manning, a national of Trinidad and Tobago who used to live on Belmont Street in Englewood before moving to Brooklyn, contends that a confession he gave police was made under duress — including threats that Etienne would be jailed on $2 million bail.
Clarke’s attorney, meanwhile, insists his client had nothing to do with Stoute’s murder — and pointed the finger at Cory Manning.
Prosecutors have yet to disclose a possible motive for the murder. Nor have they described the relationship between Randy Manning and Stoute, who had spent the day before the killing shopping together at malls in Paramus.

BIEBER & PAL DOUBLE-TEAM TOPLESS STRIPPER 'Ain't No Fun, If the Homies Can't Have None'

Justin Bieber & Pal -- Double-Team Topless Stripper ... Ain't No Fun, If the Homies Can't Have None

Say this for Justin Bieber ... at least he shares ... even when it comes to strippers' boobs -- as seen in this photo of Justin and his pal Khalil Sharieff sucking on one breast each during a recent party.
According to sources with direct knowledge ... the stripper, who came fully-loaded with giant fake breasts and a classy rainbow-colored Playboy tattoo, was hired to "perform" for Justin and his pals during a party at an L.A. recording studio. During the festivities, Justin and Khalil decided to get a taste of the action ... at the same time ... with Justin taking a love-bite out of the left mammary for good measure.
Sources at the party say the stripper looked old enough to be Justin's mother ... maybe that explains the urge to breast-feed.

Yeah ... that $100,000 bet was a bad idea. 
Really bad.
We broke the story ... Sapp -- who filed for bankruptcy back in 2012 -- made a $100k Super Bowl betwith rap mogul Rick Ross.  The bet was captured on video ... so it's gonna be hard for Sapp to back out. 
Sapp took the Broncos. Ross took the Seahawks.
Sapp lost.
Warren's gonna have to find a way to come up with $100k, stat ... 'cause Rick doesn't seem like the kinda guy you wanna owe money to.
Just sayin' ...

PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN DEAD of Apparent Heroin OD NEEDLE FOUND IN ARM


Philip Seymour Hoffman Dead -- Dies of Apparent Heroin Overdose ... Needle Found in Arm
Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead Sunday in a New York City apartment of an apparent drug overdose ... TMZ has learned authorities found a needle in his arm.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the actor was found Sunday morning inside a Greenwich apartment ... and they're still on scene investigating.
Our sources say ... Hoffman was found in his bathroom in his boxer shorts, with a needle sticking out of his left arm.  We're told police found 10 glassine envelopes -- 2 of the envelopes had heroin ... the others presumably were empty.
One of the envelopes had "Ace of Spades" written on it, and another had an ace of hearts symbol -- such symbols and words are often markers from people who make heroin -- to brand it.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ...  Hoffman was supposed to pick up his kids at 9 AM Sunday but didn't show -- which was unusual for him.  A playwright and a friend became concerned, came over and found the actor alone in the apartment.
0202_APARTMENT_TMZ_WM_SPLIT
Details surrounding his death are unclear ... but the actor had struggled with drug problems ... most recently checking himself into a rehab facility for heroin back in May. 
TMZ broke the story of Hoffman going to rehab.  We were told he did it as a preventative measure because he was getting close to a major relapse.  A source involved in Hoffman's treatment now tells TMZ ... the actor said at the time he was on the brink of becoming a heroin IV user and wanted to nip it in the bud before that happened.
As we previously reported ... Hoffman had been clean for 23 years but fell off the wagon in 2012.
It appears Hoffman's last interview was at the Sundance Film Festival with XiXi Yang fromPopStopTV for his movie "A Wanted Man."
020214_seymour_hoffman_interview_launch
Hoffman's family released a statement saying, "We are devastated by the loss of our beloved Phil and appreciate the outpouring of love and support."
Law enforcement sources tell us his autopsy will take place Monday.

George Zimmerman Wants To Fight Kanye West


George Zimmerman -- I Wanna Fight Kanye West ... For Beating Up 'Defenseless People'
George Zimmerman wants to beat up Kanye West ... ironically because the rapper has a history of attacking "defenseless people."
Promoters for Zimmerman's upcoming celeb boxing match tell us he badly wants to step in the ring with Yeezus.  The promoters are deliciously Machiavellian --- knowing for many it will become a choice between 2 evils ... thus becoming a must-see spectacle.
We're told George's beef with Kanye is not just that he attacks paparazzi  ... but the innocents as well -- like the 18-year-old who allegedly called Kim an "N***** lover."
The promoters say if Kanye takes Zimmerman up on the offer ... they're willing to move the fight to L.A.
We'd livestream that.
