O.J Simpson’s Former Prosecutor, Chris Darden, Represents Nipsey Hussle’s Alleged Shooter—Enters ‘Not Guilty’ Plea

Roommates, it is being reported that Chris Darden, who is mostly known for his involvement in the O.J Simpson trial, is now representing Eric Holder, Nipsey Hussle’s alleged murder. Chris Darden was on the prosecutors side during the OJ Case, meaning his focus on trial was to convince the jury that OJ was guilty.

Earlier today, Eric was charged with one count of murder, two counts of attempted murder and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon. Chris Darden reportedly entered a ‘not guilty’ plea on behalf of Eric during his court appearance this afternoon.

According to the LA Times, “Darden argued unsuccessfully to keep media cameras from filming his client during the arraignment hearing, saying he believed there was an “issue of identity.”

If you’re wondering how Eric got Chris Darden on his team, he was apparently ‘privately retained’ for him, according to Prosecutor John McKinney.
