50 Cent and Snoop Dogg are teaming up for the show “A Moment in Time: Murder Was The Case”, which is based on Snoop Dogg’s 1993 murder case.  In 1993, Snoop Dogg was charged with first-degree murder for the shooting of Philip Woldermariam, who was a member of a rival gang and was shot by Snoop Dogg’s bodyguard McKinley Lee. The murder trial happened around the release of Snoop Dogg’s classic debut album “Doggy Style”.

Said Snoop: “I am excited to finally tell the story of ‘Murder was the Case.’ This was a pivotal moment in my life and career and I’ve deliberately waited until I found the right partner to bring this to the screen. You are now about to witness the strength of street knowledge. “

50 Cent added: “Murder was the Case’ is an incredible story. Snoop had the biggest album in the country and was fighting for his freedom in the courtroom. The only place to go on this incredible ride is with G-Unit Film & Television. I’m excited to be working with Snoop to bring it to television.”
