Man Who Killed Two Cops In Brooklyn Announced His Plans On Instagram Hours Before

The chilling Instagram posts of a cop killer

This past Saturday, New York City was momentarily frozen by the tragic execution of two NYPD officers in Brooklyn by a 28-year old Ismaaiyl Brinsley, who blindly sought vengeance in the wake of the deaths of Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice and more. Investigations into just who Brinsley was uncovered startling Instagram posts that Brinsley uploaded just hours before the attack, including a picture that matches the photo of the murder weapon released by authorities. Brinsley, under the IG guise of dontrunup–an account that has since been suspended–attached this caption to a picture of the Taurus handgun.

At about 2:10pm, Baltimore authorities called the NYPD to warn them of Brinsley’s threats, especially considering they believed that he shot and killed his ex-girlfriend in Baltimore early Saturday morning before heading north to Brooklyn. However, approximately half an hour later, Brinsley carried out his threats on two unsuspecting members of the NYPD.

Watch the HNHH exclusive interview with the self-declared King of Brooklyn, Maino.

Maino gets his talk on in our 11-minute interview with the Brooklyn native. After delivering his second instalment of King of Brooklyn in November, we spoke to the rapper on his self-appointed king title as well as his native neighborhood. Maino talks about being a voice for his peers and the streets alike, as well as fellow New York rappers who may not necessarily rep the NY sound (which he says is completely okay).

Maino goes on to talk about the police in light of recent events, and if rappers should speak out against things like police brutality. He even details personal encounters with police officers that affected his own life, but admits "not all officers are bad." Finally, he reveals he's writing a book called "Expect Nothing And Gain A World." He says it's "inspiration, philosophy, it's my ideals and advice for brothers that's either just coming home from prison or about to come home."

Watch Main drop some knowledge above.
