In his 2002 book LAbyrinth, Randall Sullivan, making an assertion based on evidence provided by former LAPD detective Russell Poole, accused music producer Marion "Suge" Knight of collaborating with Mack and a hitman Mack was associated with who was identified as Amir Muhammad to murder Christopher Wallace, a rapper who performed under the name The Notorious B.I.G. In April 2002, Voletta Wallace, the mother of Christopher Wallace, filed a wrongful death claim against the city of Los Angeles based on the evidence championed by Poole and Sullivan.

In April 2007, Voletta Wallace and other members of the Christopher Wallace estate filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the City of Los Angeles, which also named Mack, Pérez, and Nino Durden as defendants. The lawsuit alleged that the officers conspired to murder Wallace, and that Pérez and Mack were present the night of the drive-by shooting which killed him on March 9, 1997.

Omar Gooding depicted Mack in the television series Unsolved.
