Late rapper Nipsey Hussle‘s family is putting together a huge memorial service big enough to let thousands of supporters bid farewell. New reports have emerged on the upcoming event.
According to reports, family members are looking to put together a service large enough for well over 10,000 people.
The only 2 real venues in L.A. that could accommodate the crowd would likely be The Forum in Inglewood and Staples Center in Downtown L.A. The other interesting possibility is the Hollywood Bowl. BTW … Michael Jackson’s memorial service was held at Staples. Nipsey was a man of the people, and we’re told his family wants to ensure everyone who wants to will be able to celebrate his life. Nip had an enormous impact on the community and his murder resonated in L.A. and way beyond … with memorials and candlelight vigils popping up across the globe. (TMZ)
Nipsey’s alleged shooter Eric Holder currently faces life behind bars.
The L.A. County D.A. charged him with 1 count of murder, 2 counts of attempted murder and 1 count of possession of a firearm by a felon. Holder faces the possibility of life in prison if convicted. The attempted murder charges are for the alleged shootings of Kerry Lathan and Shermi Cervabta Villanueva. Shermi is Kerry’s nephew and had driven him to meet with Nipsey. (TMZ)
After a two-day manhunt, law enforcement captured Hussle’s shooting suspect Tuesday.
Deputies at the L.A. County Sheriff’s Lakewood station got a call at 12:53 p.m. from a person who had seen someone matching Holder’s description, said Sheriff’s spokeswoman Nicole Nishida. The deputies arrived on the scene and arrested the person without incident. Detectives from the LAPD South Bureau are on their way to Lakewood to confirm whether the person is in fact the suspect, said LAPD Officer Tony Im. (Variety)
