In his opening statement, Deputy District Attorney John McKinney told the downtown Los Angeles jury that Holder 'pulls out not one but two guns and starts shooting' after a conversation with the rapper that included allegations of 'snitching.'
Holder, 32, an aspiring rapper, is also charged with two counts of attempted murder and assault with a firearm and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon, along with allegations that he personally and intentionally discharged a handgun and that he personally inflicted great bodily injury.
In his opening statement, Deputy District Attorney John McKinney told the downtown Los Angeles jury that Holder "pulls out not one but two guns and starts shooting" after a conversation with the rapper that included allegations of "snitching." Hussle, who was 33, was struck by at least 10 and possibly 11 bullets in an "explosion of violence," McKinney said, noting that the rapper was "shot from literally the bottom of his feet to the top of his head" and that he would have been a paraplegic if he survived because one bullet transected his spine.The fallen rapper said, "You got me" as he was on the ground being shot, according to a grand jury transcript.
One of Holder's attorneys, Aaron Jansen, told jurors twice during his opening statement, "This is a case about heat of passion." Holder's attorney noted that his client is charged with murder, but told jurors, "In fact, it should be voluntary manslaughter because he was acting in the heat of passion." The defense lawyer said he is confident the panel will acquit his client of first-degree murder, along with the two attempted murder counts.
"I would have snatched him up out of there," said Douglas, an ex-con who testified that he became friends with Hussle after meeting him in 2003.
