While 50 Cent has made great strides to improve his image, some pieces of his past continue to affect his present. Three years ago, an assault took place at 50 Cent's mansion. Dwayne McKenzie, an employee of 50 Cent assaulted Vasti Ortiz at the mansion.

McKenzie hit Ortiz with a belt on 50 Cent's grounds after he choked her. It turned out Dwayne McKenzie was a known criminal. A year before he assaulted Vasti Ortiz, he had been arrested for firing a .40 caliber glock in a crowd.

Vasti Ortiz is now taking her charges to 50 Cent. Ortiz says it is his responsiblity, as an employer, to know McKenzie was a criminal before hiring him. 50 Cent was not at the mansion during the time of the attacks.
