\n Two men have finally been arrested in the 2002 slaying of Run-DMC\u2019s Jam Master Jay, law-enforcement sources told The Post on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was all over drugs,\u201d said a former investigator who worked the case.<\/p>\n

One of the men, Ronald Washington, had long been suspected of being involved in the hip-hop pioneer\u2019s execution-style murder in his Queens studio, the source said.<\/p>\n

Jay, 37, whose real name was Jason Mizell, was believed to have ponied up $15,000, while a pal put in another $15,000, to buy a total of 2 kilos of coke that the pair then planned to turn around and peddle.<\/p>\n

Mizell was new to the drug world and just hoped to score a quick buck, sources told The Post around the time of his murder.<\/p>\n

But intermedia<\/a>ries who were friends of Mizell instead allegedly took both the cash and drugs and split.<\/p>\n

When the drug suppliers still demanded their dough, Mizell balked at paying any more, sources said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said he got robbed, [too], and couldn\u2019t pay them back,\u201d the former prober said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter awhile, [the suppliers] said, \u2018F\u2013k it,\u2019 and killed him,\u201d the source said. \u201cIt looked like he had no way or intention of paying them, and they f\u2013king shot him.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was always over drugs and money owed,\u201d the source said. \u201cThey all knew each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mizell\u2019s killers had been buzzed into his Jamaica studio that day because they were known from the neighborhood, the ex-investigator said.<\/p>\n

There were three witnesses who saw them, the source said \u2014 although the witnesses were all reluctant to speak. One of them eventually identified Washington as one of the people buzzed in, but it wasn\u2019t enough for an arrest at the time, the source said.<\/p>\n

The name of the second suspect, Karl Jordan Jr., eventually also landed on investigators\u2019 radar because he had a relative who was a drug dealer, the source said.<\/p>\n

When the feds first took over the case, they thought the slaying was tied to a robbery team that had been targeting southeast Queens and Long Island, the source said.<\/p>\n

But then it quickly became clear \u201cit was always over drugs and money owed,\u201d the source said.<\/p>\n

Washington is already behind bars for robbery, while Jordan, 36, was nabbed Sunday, sources said.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
