A Los Angeles court has found Eric Holder guilty of murdering Grammy-nominated rapper Nipsey Hussle. The jury after a deliberation of six hours found Holder guilty of voluntary manslaughter. He killed the rapper and injured two other people on March 31, 2019, as he fired more than 10 shots outside the rapper’s Marathon clothing store.
Hussle was initially charged with murder for shooting Lathan and Villanueva, but jurors found him guilty of a lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter. Lathan, who was standing across from Hussle, was shot in the back and was paralyzed from his injuries. Villanueva was grazed by a bullet and was not seriously injured, according to New York Post.
Holder’s attorney claimed that the shooting didn’t rise to the level of first-degree murder as he argued that the shooting took place in the heat of passion.
