Rapper charged in murder-for-hire plot to kill Sterling Heights woman
FLINT, Mich. (CBS DETROIT) - Flint rapper Cliff Mac could be facing a lengthy jail sentence after he was arrested for conspiring to hire a man to murder a Macomb County woman.
Clifton E. Terry, 31, of Flint, was charged Wednesday with conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire resulting in personal injury, murder-for-hire resulting in personal injury, and using a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence.
According to the indictment, Terry offered Andre Sims of Detroit $10,000 to murder the Sterling Heights woman in November of 2020. Sims waited in front of the woman's home and when she was leaving, he shot her several times. Despite her injuries, the woman survived. Terry eventually paid Sims $2,500 for the failed hit.
Terry is also charged with first-degree murder in a separate case in Genesee County involving the death of Devaroe Davis in August 2021. Sims is already serving life in prison after being convicted in the fatal shooting of a 65-year-old Grand Rapids woman.
Terry faces a maximum of 25 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 for this latest case.
