Federal prosecutors have appealed the acquittal of Karl Jordan Jr. in the 2002 murder of Jam Master Jay as the long-running case continues to evolve more than two decades after the famed DJ was killed.

Prosecutors went to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit to formally challenge the judge’s post-verdict acquittal order and does not yet include detailed legal arguments, which are expected in later filings.

Jordan, the godson of Jam Master Jay, had been convicted in February 2024 along with co-defendant Ronald “Tinard” Washington.
