Remy Ma has a history with violent crime and the criminal justice system.

Her son has outdone her on that front.

23-year-old JaYson Scott was arrested earlier this week in Queens for first-degree murder.  Scott and Richard Swygert are accused of shooting and killing 43-year-old Darius Guillebeaux during a May 2021 incident in NYC.

It's unclear if they knew Guillebeaux before they allegedly killed him, and police are investigating whether it was a murder for hire.

Remy spoke on the arrest today:

"We stand by JaySon’s innocence and pray that the NYPD will conduct a complete and thorough investigation to reveal the truth. This is undoubtedly a difficult time for my family and me. While we sincerely appreciate the love and support we have received from all of you, we kindly ask for privacy as our legal team works to prove JaySon’s innocence," she said in a statement.
