*The family of a concert promoter who was killed in 2014 is accusing rapper Young Jeezy of pulling the trigger.
Eric Johnson a show promoter who was shot and killed in August of 2014 backstage at Jeezy and Wiz Khalifa’s concert in Mountain View, CA. According to TMZ, the family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Jeezy claiming that an eyewitness told Mountain View PD the shooter looked like Jeezy … and the years later the witness repeated that claim in a deposition.
The family also says the same witness picked Jeezy out of a photo lineup as the shooter, and that a second witness described the shooter to a police sketch artist who drew someone that looked “eerily similar to the way Young Jeezy looked” the night of the shooting.
The family says it was never given a direct explanation as to who was suspected of the crime or why Jeezy was never charged. Johnson’s kids are suing for funeral expenses and other damages.
