So far the file only states, on the 18th page, that "...Biggie & his entourage had connections to the Genovese Crime Family" without really explaining much more. The way the earlier part of the sentence has been redacted implies it was information furnished by a confidential informant.

What is made clear in the reports is; when the information has been furnished by various informants (which is what it is, mostly uncorroborated & theory/conjecture), but also when & what the FBI decided to pursue & backed up through their own investiagtions.

In some cases the redactions are relatively easy to fill in armed with the facts, such as one, for example, reading "______________ found to have a "shrine" to Tupac in his garage" with the redacted sections obviously referring to LAPD Officer David Mack, or one that reads something like "________ who _________ cocaine", which, considering the context, is less likely to be "so & so who campaigned against the use of cocaine" then "so & so who used/sold cocaine. & Im reasonably confidant on where the redacted statements refer to either Sean Coombs or Suge Knight, also by the context & established facts.

Its takes me some time to wade through these files. Im pretty busy & can only do so much at a time, & its a pretty lengthy. There could well be more further in.
