Fabolous Update!

Fabolous' Lawyer Says Rapper Was Not At Nightclub
Fabolous' lawyer yesterday (November 25) emphasized that his client was not at the night club where his friend was fatally stabbed.

Shamal McKinney was stabbed to death at Club Duvet on Thanksgiving night (November 22).

CBS 2 HD reported that Shamal’s and his brother, Darryl, partied with Fabolous and friends at the plush nightspot that night.

Darryl would reveal to CBS 2 HD that Fabolous had left the club long before his brother’s stabbing occurred.

The New York Daily News would visit Fabolous’ New Jersey home on Friday (November 23) to question him about the incident, and an unidentified man answered the door and said that Fabolous had spent Thanksgiving with his family and was not at the club.

The newspaper would contact Fabolous’ lawyer, Alberto Ebanks, on Sunday and he insisted that his client was not at the Duvet on the night of the stabbing.

“I think police confirmed that my client was in fact not even there,” Ebanks said. “[Fabolous] has reached out to the family and extended his condolences."

Authorities found a bloody knife in a dumpster near the club. No suspects have been named or arrested.

Shamal, who was a long time friend of Fabolous, was stabbed in his chest and back. He was only 25 years old.
