Nipsey Hussle Murder Suspect Reportedly Beaten Up In Jail
Eric Holder, the man accused of killing rapper and entrepreneur Nipsey Hussle, was unable to attend his murder trial Tuesday. According to reports, Holder was physically beaten after leaving a Los Angeles courtroom on Monday.
The whole nature of his injuries wasn’t revealed; however, some sources say that it was worse than just a “black eye.” He had to receive medical treatment.
The attacker also hasn’t been revealed yet.
After the incident, Judge H. Clay Jacke canceled the court hearing.
Holder’s lawyer, Aaron Jansen, said that Tuesday’s cancellation was due to a “medical” issue that wasn’t COVID-related.
Holder is accused of murdering Nipsey outside of his Marathon store in L.A. back in 2019.
Family, friends, and fans celebrated Nipsey’s life at a packed-out Staples Center, which is now named Crypto.com Area.
Holder is also charged with first-degree attempted murder of two other men who were allegedly hit during the shooting.
Closing arguments are scheduled for Wednesday but could continue into Thursday.
