Jaime Brugada, a rapper who went by the name MoneySign Suede, was fatally stabbed in the neck on Tuesday night at a California prison. Law enforcement officials are investigating the death as a homicide. Brugada was 22 years old.
A statement from the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said that officers responded when Brugada was not found in his cell during a “regular institutional count” at around 9:55 p.m. They found him “unresponsive” with “injuries consistent with a homicide.” The department did not immediately reveal how Brugada died or where he was found.
The rapper was then sent to a medical facility within the prison. A life-saving procedure was conducted, but he was pronounced dead later that night.

His attorney, Nicholas Rosenberg, stated that the motive for the alleged homicide is unknown, further noting that he was a “very popular guy” and “mild-mannered.”
