Was this story ever on Datalounge? (Originally published 1/4/14):
[quote]BROOKLYN - Police say Duane Lett, 34, was shot to death on a Brownsville street in broad daylight. It happened in front of an apartment building on Rockaway Avenue near Rutland Road at around 1:15 p.m. Saturday. A neighbor says she heard gunshots and looked out her window to see a man lying on his back with a head wound in the middle of the street. Police were at the scene investigating for hours, shutting down Rockaway Parkway between East New York Avenue and Rutland Place.
Apparently this guy was the founder of a website called DL Chill Spot (link below; NSFW) that featured "urban" models on the downlow. The speculation is that he was murdered by one of his models. Supposedly the website "Media Takeout" published some stories about him and possibly outed some of his models.
Anyone here heard about this or have insider info?
