Well, Trey Songz has since responded to the ‘cynics’ [who assume his involvement]. In two caption statement on twitter, Trey says:
“I don’t delete tweets, nor am I insensitive to death. I had no knowledge of the murder/suicide incident until now & even still…”
“As sad as it may be, it has nothing to do with me. Sending prayers up to the families and friends of the people involved “
Other reports suggest that Belcher was not home when Perkins returned from the Trey Songz concert and had been partying with another woman name Brittani Glass. You can that story here
