We don't know exactly why the Jamaican Nesta was there, but presumably he was "procuring" the two hookers for Jimmy Fingers. Nesta most likely was a pimp as well as a drug dealer. He was close to Jimmy and may have been acting as a bodyguard as well. FYI Hatcher says to Jimmy Fingers that he was "thrown out" of Atlantic City. Jimmy Fingers was a made man in the Mafia. More often than not, when the Mob "puts you on the shelf" - which means you are not allowed to participate in Mob business or have dealings with other Mafia members - you are usually killed subsequently by them, because you either talk too much, know too much, or keep breaking rules. In other words, Jimmy Fingers character probably would have been murdered sooner or later if Hatcher hadn't done it.
