A wannabe rapper’s grotesque try at self-promotion and a Halloween stunt involving a lifeless cat landed the Bronx rapper behind bars after a disturbing video surfaced on-line.

The 26-year-old Fordham North resident David Mosley, who performs beneath the alias Church of Ububal, was arrested on Thursday (October 30) on prices together with aggravated animal cruelty, prison mischief and improper disposal of an animal.

Authorities moved shortly after the video went viral. Police sources informed the outlet they tracked Mosley down in simply over per week, regardless of restricted leads.

His stage title, Church of Ububal, is “Labubu” spelled backward.

Mosley, who likened himself to figures from the Norwegian black steel scene, referenced the band Mayhem in a YouTube livestream uploaded Monday (October 27).

David Mosley Claims Cat Was Already Dead

When approached by reporters outdoors his constructing within the Bronx, Mosley lashed out. “You can’t write your stories here and you’re not allowed in this building,” he shouted.

Neighbors described him as erratic and disruptive. “He’s crazy,” one resident informed the Post. “He’s always moving furniture and being loud … It’s hard to believe anyone like that is living here.”

Mosley later claimed the cat was already lifeless when he filmed the scene, dismissing criticism by calling viewers “soft for falling for cheap parlor tricks.”

But Becky Wisdom, an animal rescue specialist with Greenpoint Cats, stated the proof informed a unique story.

“Any vet who looks at that picture can see there was distress and the cat was recently spayed and therefore very likely recently adopted,” Wisdom stated. “The open mouth, the blood, it was not a peaceful end.”

The case drew consideration from New York City Council member Joann Ariola, who contacted the NYPD commissioner’s workplace immediately. “Statistically, serial killers begin by killing animals, and then escalate to people,” Ariola stated. “And I am glad that this violent madman is now off of our streets before any more harm could be done.”

Mosley’s arrest got here simply days earlier than Halloween, the date he initially teased for his subsequent video.
