An associate of rap troupe THE DIPLOMATS made an unwanted TV appearance in America over the weekend (24-25May08) when he was featured on crime show AMERICA'S MOST WANTED.
Carlos Thompson, 32, is wanted by authorities in New York for his alleged involvement in the murder of a Harlem teenager.
The bodyguard and crew member is accused of giving 13-year-old L'Mani Delima a gun and ordering him to shoot fellow teen Phoenix Garrett, for selling The Diplomats CDs illegally, according to website AllHipHop.com.
Delima reportedly shot Garrett five times in what New York police officials are calling a "contract hit."
A nationwide manhunt is now underway for Thompson, following the alert on America's Most Wanted on Saturday (24May08).
The dead teen's father, James Garrett, appeared on the TV show, revealing he has been left broken hearted by his son's death.
He said, "I have to live the rest of my life being what I call the walking dead. There's not a moment, not a second, that I'm not thinking of my son."
Delima has already been convicted of Garrett's murder and will be sentenced next month (Jun08).

It's a Boy for Jack Black!
Jack Black is a dad again!
The funnyman�s wife, Tanya Haden, gave birth to a boy on last week, Entertainment Tonight reports.
The 38-year-old announced the news to ET at the Kung Fu Panda premiere, telling the show his new son, also named Jack, was "fresh out of the oven."
Baby Jack is the couple�s second child and joins big brother Samuel, who turns 2 on June 11.
Hopefully now, Samuel will know which of his parents gave birth. Jack's� been bumping bellies left and right with Tanya and his expectant Kung Fu Panda co-star Angelina Jolie, but because of his round midsection, the actor recently revealed on The Tonight Show that his son thought daddy was pregnant too.
�He sees mama's bump on her belly and he goes up to her, points at her belly, and says, 'baby,' so he knows. But then the other day he pointed at my belly and said, 'baby,' so I don't know if he really has the concept down,� Jack said. �And he also pointed at my chest area and said, 'boobies,' so I need to drop a couple [pounds] I think.�

Eva: 'Posh's skinny jeans to blame'
Eva Longoria has once again had to deny a pregnancy rumour and this time blamed Victoria Beckham's jeans for starting the gossip.
Longoria was recently pictured with a 'bump' but says that Beckham's super skinny jeans, and her own 'gut', were the reason observers got the wrong idea.
She told Hollywood Scoop: 'Victoria gave me a couple of pairs (of jeans) and I love them but they were so tight, my gut was hanging over the top before dinner. Then, we came out of the restaurant and I was totally bloated. And now, apparently, I have a baby bump.'
The actress, who plays Gabrielle in 'Desperate Housewives', has already denied a pregnancy rumour in 2008 after reportedly being seen looking at baby furniture with husband Tony Parker in February.
