Eddie James "Stretch" Pugh IV and Barron Lecour "Bam" Borden had a reputation as gangsters long before they were charged in last week's double kidnap


Eddie James "Stretch" Pugh IV and Barron Lecour "Bam" Borden had a reputation as gangsters long before they were charged in last week's double kidnapping and slaying.
Jerome Lorrain, special agent in charge of the FBI Safe Streets Task Force, said Thursday in U.S. District Court in Gulfport that Pugh bears tattoos showing his allegiance to the Los Angeles-based Inglewood Bloods, a violent street gang experts say has for years claimed to control the suburb of Inglewood.He also has tattoos on his chest claiming affiliation with the 9th Ward Soldiers, a New Orleans-based neighborhood group that is not considered a formal organized street gang, according to the New Orleans Police Department, though a federal agent said such groups are usually affiliated with drug activity. Borden, 33, has a rap sheet dating back at least to the early 1990s, and has a long-standing reputation as a gangster, according to the lone survivor in the Oct. 8 double kidnapping and murder that originated in New Orleans and ended in Jackson County's Latimer community.
Pugh, Borden, and Pugh's girlfriend, Torenda A. "Tory" (Brooks) Whitmore, 39, are charged with capital murder in Jackson County in the death of South Carolina native Byron Kelsey McCoy, 29, who was visiting the survivor, Rahman MoGilles, in New Orleans at the time.The three face federal charges in the kidnapping of MoGilles, one of Pugh's childhood friends, and McCoy, a friend of MoGilles who'd come to New Orleans to see about getting into a family business there. MoGilles and McCoy met in college in Atlanta.After a preliminary hearing Thursday in U.S. District Court, U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert H. Walker ordered the men held without bond, though the three are already ineligible for bond because of the state capital murder charge.At Thursday's hearing several people showed up in support of the suspects, though none wished to comment.During the hearing the FBI's Lorrain said Pugh had been driving from New Orleans to California to report to a probation officer there over the last four months, and he and Whitmore had recently moved in with Pugh's mother in New Orleans, where the alleged kidnapping originated.The federal agent noted the suspects all gave different stories immediately after their arrest, but all three eventually said the reason for the kidnapping was because Pugh thought MoGilles and McCoy were either working with police or trying to rob them of drugs and money.MoGilles told authorities he went to Pugh's home to smoke some marijuana, though Pugh and Borden said MoGilles was there to try to sell them four or five pounds of high-grade marijuana for about $15,000.

I am also a friend of Torrenda and cannot believe how she became mixed up in something so horrific. I also know her family. This is nothing I could have ever predicted for her future. I am praying for her and her two kids... folks in Cleveland still love U Tori!!!

I'm sure Toe had nothing to do with this thing but in knowing this I too know that no statements should have been made and the first thing her man should have done was to free her so lets all pray for Tori Allah changes all conditions so trust in Allah she'll be okay Inshallah Luv ya Moe

Man i know Toe had nothing to do with that period but what I do is no-one and I mean no-one should have made any statement and they said all three did so thats pretty f***** up Man have to pray for T may Allah protect her and guide her through this Allah controls all things

This is so hard to belive. Tory has always been such a nice person. I am so sad to hear that she had been "caught up" in something so horrible. My prayers go out to her and her children who must somehow move on from this.

Your friends in Cleveland are praying for you.

I was in prison wit Strech. He one of da realest niggas I ever met

I have known Tori as a young girl. I remember when she moved into my neighborhood. I feel so bad for her getting caught up in something so horrible. I just heard today! My heart hurts for her, because she was always a beautiful person. I don't care what anybody has to say, she was a good person and got caught up in a bad situation. My heart goes out to the family to that lost their loved one.

You sorry fucks. Ylu are the reason we cannot progress. I knew Byron. He did not desreve this. No one does. These is no excuse for this. Just because you knew someone does not make them innocent. Who are you? I knew Byron Kelsey McCoy for 10 years. He did not deserve this. No one does. Just because you knew a murderer does make her actions right. Your song eould be different if someone committed such an inhamane, savage atfack against her. Your friend is alive. Mine is dead. Kelsey was no angel but he was no devil either.

They are all good people just a situation gone bad if you really knew these people for who they really are you would we wonder what really happen that night free my nigga Stretch

The truth is they had every intention on robbing Stretch and Bam when they came back to their house the next day. But Stretch and Bam got the jump on them. So when you live by the sword, you die by the sword. Drug deal gone wrong the deceased and the survivor got themselves into.

You knew a drug dealer who planned to rob and possibly murder Stretch, Bam and whomever else had been there when they came back the 2nd day. They came to Stretch’s house twice. 1st to scope the scene out and the 2nd day to rob them but the tables got turned.

To be honest had they not taken the dudes to Mississippi’ they wouldn't have been convicted of murder or kidnapping. Probably something like manslaughter and definitely not kidnapping.
