A
wily reggae music executive — wanted for a 2002 murder in Maryland — was busted
by federal marshals at JFK Airport late Sunday night after he crafted a new
identity and eluded law enforcement for more than a decade, The Post has
learned.
Kevin
Reynolds was wanted for the the shooting death of Winston King in front of his
screaming 11-year-old daughter in Silver Spring but managed to vanish into the
shadows for the past 12 years, sources said.
Reynolds
allegedly changed his identity to become “Dennis Graham” and soon climbed the
ranks at popular reggae and dancehall music label 21st Hapilos Digital
Distribution that lists offices on Madison Avenue as well as in Jamaica, law
enforcement sources told The Post.
Despite
his wanted status, Reynolds obtained new paperwork and passports and settled in
Canarsie, Brooklyn while helping run the music company.
Sources
said he even managed to fly freely from New York to Jamaica and back without
detection until he was finally busted this weekend while waiting to board a
flight to Kingston.
He
was nabbed by the New York/New Jersey Regional Fugitive Task Force and NYPD
detectives, sources told The Post.
Along
with another man, Reynolds allegedly approached King and his daughter in a
parking lot outside their Maryland apartment complex in November 2002, sources
said. The men knew each other.
Reynolds
allegedly dragged King away while his accomplice put his hand over his
daughter’s mouth. She later heard gunshots and saw the men speed off, according
to sources.
The
child saw her father stagger and eventually collapse but told cops she
recognized Reynolds before he bolted, sources said.
Twelve
years later, Reynolds is expected to be extradited to Maryland to face murder
charges.
