SaySo P‘s murder case reached a critical milestone Monday (December 8) when prosecutors secured enough evidence to advance first-degree murder charges against his alleged killer to a grand jury.
Kevin Brown faces potential life imprisonment after the Shelby County District Attorney’s Office announced his case will proceed to a grand jury for indictment in the targeted killing of Memphis rapper Letorian Hunt, known professionally as SaySo P.
The 27-year-old rapper died March 22 outside the Westin Hotel on Beale Street near FedExForum when Brown allegedly opened fire in what police called a targeted attack. Houston rapper Sauce Walka was wounded in the same shooting but survived.
Monday’s court hearing lasted three hours and featured testimony from 10 witnesses, along with extensive video evidence, before the judge ruled to hold Brown’s case to answer as charged. The decision moves the prosecution one step closer to seeking justice for SaySo P’s death.
