Al llegar al lugar, Holder vio a Hussle afuera de su negocio. Cuando los hombres se encontraron, Hussle le comentó a Holder, frente a otras personas, que en la calle se escuchaba que estaba trabajando como cooperante de la policía. Holder, presente en el tribunal para escuchar la sentencia, no mostró ninguna reacción mientras escuchó al juez Clay Jacke II leer la decisión que lo pondrá tras los barrotes el resto de su vida por disparar al músico de 33 años en marzo de 2019 al sur de Los Ángeles.

Eric Holder Jr. sentenced to 60 years in murder of Nipsey Hussle (Los Angeles Times)

Eric Holder Jr. was sentenced to at least 60 years in prison after his murder conviction in the 2018 shooting death of Crenshaw rapper Nipsey Hussle.

Holder also was a fledgling rapper, recording tracks under the moniker “Fly Mac.” But his work gained next to no attention, while Hussle’s 2018 record “Victory Lap” was nominated for a Grammy.

Nipsey Hussle's convicted killer sentenced to 60 years to life in prison (USA TODAY)

Nipsey Hussle's convicted killer Eric R. Holder was sentenced to 60 years to life in prison after being found guilty of shooting the rapper in 2019.

A chance meeting outside the Marathon, in a shopping center Hussle owned, led to a conversation the two men had about rumors that Holder had been acting as an informant for authorities. But Holder never found the same success as Hussle, who would become a local hero and a national celebrity. Jacke had a broad range of possibilities in sentencing Holder at the Wednesday hearing, but the murder conviction alone carries a term of 25 years to life. "Nipsey was my friend, he was like a son, he was like a dad," said Douglas, who took off his black cowboy hat as he entered the courtroom and wore a sweatshirt with a picture of Hussle on the front. Hussle, whose legal name is Ermias Asghedom, and Holder had known each other for years growing up as members of the Rollin’ 60s in South LA. Jansen said afterward that he was “deeply disappointed” in the verdict, which they planned to appeal. The other convictions, and special sentencing circumstances that jurors found true, made it almost certain Holder would spend the rest of his life in prison. Clay Jacke handed down the sentence Wednesday after hearing from one of Hussle's friends and listening to a letter from Holder's father that was read in court. "I am also mindful of the devastation caused to the victims and their families. He also gave Holder credit for the nearly four years he has served since the shooting. Jacke sentenced Holder to 25 years to life for the murder, 25 more for a firearm sentencing enhancement and 10 for assault with a firearm. Holder, dressed in orange jail attire, stared straight ahead throughout the proceedings and did not react when the sentence was read, and spoke only to tell the judge he understood the circumstances when he was asked.
