[Saying] ‘I Miss You,’ will never be deep enough for the void left in my soul. Yet, I know you walk with me- always still. Happy 35th, Eternally Yours, Boogie.” In April, suspect Eric Holder was charged with one count of murder, two counts of attempted murder and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon for fatally shooting Hussle, according to a statement from the Los Angeles County’s District Attorney’s Office at the time. The case is ongoing as previous trial dates were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
