LAPD apologizes to family of rapper Notorious B.I.G. for autopsy’s release
(MCT) — LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Police Department apologized Saturday to the family of rapper Notorious B.I.G. for failing to warn them that it planned to make his autopsy public 15 years after his slaying.
The Los Angeles County coroner’s office made the autopsy of the rapper, whose real name was Christopher George Latore Wallace, public after the LAPD OK’d its release Friday. The Police Department blamed the snafu on an administrative error.
