Late rapper Nipsey Hussle‘s alleged killer is on the path to spending a lifetime behind bars. New reports claim 29-year-old suspect Eric Holder is now officially charged with murder.
According to reports, Holder now has a murder count to his name with additional felony charges.
The L.A. County D.A. charged him with 1 count of murder, 2 counts of attempted murder and 1 count of possession of a firearm by a felon. Holder faces the possibility of life in prison if convicted. The attempted murder charges are for the alleged shootings of Kerry Lathan and Shermi Cervabta Villanueva. Shermi is Kerry’s nephew and had driven him to meet with Nipsey. (TMZ)
After a two-day manhunt, law enforcement captured Hussle’s shooting suspect Tuesday.
Deputies at the L.A. County Sheriff’s Lakewood station got a call at 12:53 p.m. from a person who had seen someone matching Holder’s description, said Sheriff’s spokeswoman Nicole Nishida. The deputies arrived on the scene and arrested the person without incident. Detectives from the LAPD South Bureau are on their way to Lakewood to confirm whether the person is in fact the suspect, said LAPD Officer Tony Im. (Variety)
