Man found guilty of 1st-degree murder in 2019 fatal shooting of rapper Nipsey Hussle

Jurors found a 32-year-old man guilty of first-degree murder Wednesday for the fatal shooting of rapper Nipsey Hussle in 2019.

The Los Angeles County jury also found Eric R. Holder Jr. guilty of two counts of attempted voluntary manslaughter instead of two attempted murder counts as prosecutors had sought for two other men who were hit by gunfire in the shooting.

Holder, wearing a blue suit and face mask, stood up in the small court room next to his lawyer as the verdict was read. He had no visible reaction.

Jurors deliberated for about six hours over two days before reaching the verdict.
