Hip-hop producer kills himself in an L.A. jail.

The man who became famous for albums like Tupac’s All Eyez on Me has committed suicide, say L.A. County Jail officials. Johnny “Johnny J” Jackson jumped off a tier this past weekend in the facility where he was held after being arrested for a DUI. Other hits Jackson produced include “Knockin’ Boots” by Candyman. Jackson, 39, had a wife and two children.

I will never believe that John took that leap. Someone aided in this tragedy, that was not his nature. There needs to be a full investigation. Never believe what the Warden claims. They can keep that B.S. for someone else. I wanna know who pushed him! B.S. aside! Why people hate Jackson’s, I have know idea, but suicide is not in our nature. Accumilating Haterz IS!!!!

Personally, I just heard about it and to me it’s a crock of S@&*…I just saw him at our class reunion 1 year and 2 months ago and he was going strong. I agree that it’s more to it then what’s beingsaid but I don’t want to put my theories out there. I also agree that his wife should look into this further, I mean we’re all having a hard time but a year in jail or a DUI is not going to push you over the edge like that. There are too many other things that could do that. As long as I’ve known him, he’s never shown signs of weakness but my prayers go out to his family with my deepest, deepest sympathy. I will say a special prayer and continue to pray for his wife and his children….May God bless his family and keep them safe with His loving hands.

While any loss of life is sad, it’s ridiculous to see statements that all corrections staff are corrupt. Like any profession, there are bad apples, but the vast majority are trying to do the job right. This is disgusting.

Kennedy Said on

That’s so sad, I do not believe he committed suicide….I smell a coverup.
RIP Johnny
RIP TUPAC…I miss you



the truth Said on

no, its been investigated…his clothes were left at the jail, no one bothered to pick them up. his bunk mate has been talked to, the story is not as it seems. the drop point was about 6 ft tall. too much damage for that kind of fall. he was on the telephone before his death. what was said is key to finding out what happened. rip johnny. i’m doing everything i can to keep your name cleared.



late but still Said on

WE DON’T BELIEVE YOU…YOU NEED MORE PEOPLE!!

The word for Oct.6, 2008 should have been COVERUP!! can you spell that girls and boys. C-O-V-E-R-U-P

Rest in Peace Johnny J.
Peace, blessings, and comfort to his family.

T,jolly Said on

Why is there no news footage on this apparent suicide, Johnny J has no reason to commit suicide, i mean come on at least tell me he was in a brawl and was thrown over, or maybe even fell during a brawl, but not suicide. People are acting like this is nothing to do with the rest of the murders already taken place over the years begin with Tupac, come on now, if the public in and about L.A are so scared to speak out , then send in the military & get to the bottom of it. but don’t act as tho it has not happen or it will only continue.
