BROOKLYN JUDGE FORCES LIL KIM'S EX TO BE MEDICATED TO STAND TRIAL FOR 6 MURDERS

LIL KIM

A federal appeals court has upheld a Brooklyn judge's order to forcibly medicate rapper Lil' Kim's schizophrenic ex-boyfriend to make him competent to stand trial in six murders.
The three-judge panel said administering antipsychotic drugs to Damion “World” Hardy was also necessary because he has repeatedly attacked guards and inmates in prison. He suffers from schizophrenia and delusions that he's a messiah.

Hardy, 39, who was arrested in 2004, could also face the death penalty if he’s convicted of ordering the murder of a rival when he was the leader of the Cash Money Brothers drug gang in Bed-Stuy.

DAMION "WORLD" HARDY

Hardy once lived in a New Jersey mansion with sexy rap star Lil’ Kim. But he became unhinged in 2004 on a pilgrimage to the Middle East, where he tried to meet with the kings of Morocco and Jordan.

In a radio interview that same year, he said his romance with Lil' Kim ended because she was part of a secret society of Masons.

Defense lawyer David Ruhnke declined to say whether his client will appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
