THUG FACES COP-SHOOT 'RAP'
By Kati Cornell Smith
NY Post
June 24, 2003 -- A man accused of shooting a rookie cop at point-blank
range after writing a rap lyric about wanting "to shoot a cop" went on
trial for attempted murder in Brooklyn yesterday.
Trevor Johnson, 26, fled when police raided his East Flatbush chop
shop in April 2002, but returned with a gun and fired seven shots at
Officer Michael Kreiman, Assistant DA Edward Boyar told jurors.
One bullet pierced Kreiman's abdomen, but he survived,
After Johnson was nabbed, a search of stolen cars he allegedly was
cutting up yielded a notebook containing a rap verse about "popping
shots and shooting cops," Boyar said.
Defense lawyer Gregory Watts told jurors that Johnson's prints were
not found in the notebook.

"It depends upon what the meaning of the
word 'is' is. If 'is' means 'is and never
has been' that's one thing - if it means
'there is none', that was a completely
true statement." --Bill Clinton
