Origins and genealogy
York’s biography is difficult to determine because much of the story he and his followers have told is mythological rather than historical in nature York has gone to great lengths to establish genealogical toeholds in various important lines of descent.
According to a birth certificate issued in the United States, York was born in Boston, Massachusetts[4] but other accounts give his birth place as New Jersey[5] or New York[2] or Baltimore

The way York tells it, he was born in Omdurman, Sudan.[7] His mother is Mary C. York née Williams, now also known as Faatimah Maryam, who at the time was married to David Piper York. York claims that his biological father was Al Haadi Abdur Rahman Al Mahdi, whom Williams is said to have met while she was a student in the Sudan.[
In 1964 York was sentenced to probation after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge of raping a 13-year-old girl. Later that year he was arrested again for assault, possession of a dangerous weapon and resisting an officer. York was sentenced to three years in state prison. After he was paroled in 1967 he joined the Black Panther

Musical career
York has recorded with Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes,[citation needed] The Delfonics,[citation needed] McFadden & Whitehead,[citation needed] and Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King[citation needed]. He also performed as lead singer in his own groups: Jackie and The Starlights, The Students, and Passion.
He later launched his own record label, also named Passion, recording himself as the solo artist "Dr. York." His debut release was the single "It’s Only A Dream" which came from the album New York (Hot Melt Records 1985). The artistic contributions on the album included background vocals from Ted Mills of the group Blue Magic. He also teamed up with Sarah Dash for the duet "It’s Too Late", and recorded with T.C. Curtis on the Hot Melt label in the UK.
York said he performed popular music in order to "reach a mass majority of my people through my music."[21]
He later also claimed grander musical contributions, stating at one point that "you were listening to my hits back in the 60’s and did not know it, nor did you know that songs which were considered ‘message music’ in the 70’s were written by me."[22]
York also wrote and produced "What Is He To You (To You)?" for his daughter, Kenne'. This did not reach the mass media; MTV, etc.. But was in Black/ urban video shows rotation lists; Video Music box, NY Hot Tracks, etc.

In 2002 York was arrested and charged with over a hundred counts of sexually molesting dozens of children, some as young as four years old. According to Bill Osinski, who wrote a book on the case: "When he was finally indicted, state prosecutors literally had to cut back the number of counts listed — from well beyond a thousand to slightly more than 200 — because they feared a jury simply wouldn’t believe the magnitude of York's evil.… [It] is believed to be the nation’s largest child molestation prosecution ever directed at a single person, in terms of number of victims and number of alleged criminal acts."[25]
In early 2003 York’s lawyer had him evaluated by a forensic psychologist, who diagnosed a DSMIV "impression consisting of Axis I - Clinical Syndrome of Delusional (Paranoid) Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Adjustment Disorder with Depressed Mood, and Axis II - Personality Disorders; Histrionic Personality Traits, Self-Defeating Personality Traits, and Schizotypical Personality Features."[26]
York pled guilty in 2003 in a plea bargain that was later dismissed by the judge, and then was convicted by a jury on January 23, 2004 – the judge having rejected his desire to be returned for trial to his own tribe:
and dis man write book bout god and a rape lil pickney dis just prove to me when u dis respect jah will put judgement pon u
