Defendant Eric Holder listens during opening statements in his murder trial, Wednesday, June 15, 2022, at Los Angeles Superior Court in Los Angeles. Holder's attack was calculated and premeditated.

McKinney said there had been a dispute between the pair — Hussle had heard Holder was a snitch and wanted to"clear that up," the AP reported.
