Power cast Isaiah Stokes is in prison for the murder of a 37-year-old man named Tyrone Jones. The shocking news occurred in July 2021 when Law and Order actor killed Jones with his gun by shooting eleven rounds.

He was charged with second-degree murder and was given a 25-year prison sentence due to this. The actor's motive behind the crime remains to be known. Vanity Fair reports Queens District Attorney said about how the crime unfolded.

The Power actor Stokes did this crime in broad daylight, making this horrific crime even scarier than it already is.

Isaiah Stokes's Net Worth

Isaiah Stokes has a net worth of $1 Million, similar to that of Luke Cage actor Carmus Johnson. The once-popular actor is in jail for murder, directly impacting his wealth and reputation. The acting was his biggest source of revenue, and all of the work he did or was about to do had been canceled. He is on the blocklist of many major studios and will probably never get any role once he comes out of jail.

Law and Order actor Stokes not only lost his role in movies and shows because of his crime. He also lost many brand deals because of it, as no company would like to be associated with the man who took someone's life. All of this led to directly hurting his net worth.

Career As An Actor

Isaiah has achieved a lot of success as an actor. He may not have achieved much on the big screen, but he has easily achieved a lot on television. Before being charged with second-degree murder, he was a fan favorite of many tv viewers and was popular for his short role in Law and Order.

Even though hip-hop and Jazz music are associated with the afro-Americans, the music of these two genres is completely different. And it remains to be known what made Isaiah choose the hip-hop career and not what his father and grandfather used to play.

Career As A Musician 

Stokes made his music career in hip-hop, which is evident in his popularity during college. His FONTY organization in the college made him popular among his music lovers. His song I Love you Isaiah was also a huge hit among his college friends. The success of this song was followed by Pleasure's Paradise, which was also a huge hit.

Many people might know Isaiah for his acting, especially in Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, but he is also a brilliant rapper. His IMDb page has listed out some of his memorable moments before going to prison. He has performed with Donald Byrd on his tour in the past. Looking at all of this, it's a shame that he won't be remembered for any of it but the fact that he took the life of someone.

Education Background

I Love you Isaiah singer Stokes has majored in Accounting and Business Management at Delaware State University. You probably thought he learned in a theatre or music school, but his formal education is much different than his career path of acting and making music. 

Isaiah was also focused on other activities during his time at DSU. His IMDb page says that he contributed to hip-hop by starting an organization called From Our Neighborhood To Yours (FONTY). The organization he eventually turned into a record label.
