The man convicted of killing rapper Nipsey Hussle was sentenced to 60 years to life in prison.
Superior Court Judge H. Clay Jacke II sentenced Eric R. Holder Jr., 33, who was found guilty of first-degree murder in the shooting of Hussle outside the Marathon, the South Central Los Angeles clothing store that the rapper had founded.
Herman “Cowboy” Douglas, a close friend of Hussle’s, was standing with him when he was killed and testified during the trial. In July, jurors went only an hour into their second day of deliberation before announcing they had reached a verdict siding with the Los Angeles Country prosecution. They rejected Holder’s attorney’s contention that a lesser charge was merited because the killing took place in the “heat of passion.”
Hussle was signing autographs outside the clothing store he owned in South Los Angeles on March 31, 2019, when Holder confronted him in a brief conversation, departed, and then returned several minutes to shoot the rapper. Hussle, who was shot 11 times, was one of three men to be injured in the assault, and the only one of the three not to survive.
