The trial of the suspect in the murder of revered Los Angeles rapper will start Thursday. Nipsey Hussle born Ermias Joseph Asghedom was shot and killed outside of a business he owned in March of 2019.
Eric Holder is the man accused of killing him. The two were said to have had a conversation where Hussle supposedly told Holder he was getting a reputation of being a “snitch” just before the shooting.
