"Greene claimed that he intended to gun down Jamari Patterson, allegedly because he had previously targeted him inside the nearby Marcy Houses. Police believe the shooting stemmed from drill rap videos in which Patterson was spotted allegedly calling out gangs on social media."
"Rodriguez laid the blame solely on Greene, stating, 'It's not my fault, I don't pull the trigger. I promise I didn't know. I promise, I promise, I didn't know. I didn't know he was going to do it.'"
Amuri Greene, the prime suspect in the Brooklyn baby shooting that killed 7-month-old Kaori Patterson-Moore, claimed he acted in self-defense after being shot at by the girl's father. Police, however, doubt Greene's account, suspecting the shooting was linked to gang conflicts stemming from drill rap videos. Matthew Rodriguez, the alleged driver, denied knowledge of Greene's intentions, but police noted surveillance footage showing both men in the area prior to the shooting, raising questions about their involvement.
