01/19/07 - Rapper Sentenced To 50 Years For Killing His Promoter

that-damn-good · 01-19-2007, 04:07 PM

An aspiring California rapper who shot and killed his promoter who expressed doubt in his talent, was sentenced to 50 years to life in prison for first-degree murder today (January 19).

According to The San Francisco Chronicle, Kanyva (born Juston Micheal Potts), shot Shani Renee Holloway, 31, twice in the back of the head at point-blank range in June 2004, as she sat in a car with her boyfriend on the 3000 block of Peppermill Circle in Pittsburg, CA.

Investigators revealed that three months before her slaying, Holloway had agreed in a "loose business agreement" to promote Potts' career, but he became resentful because she was negative about his prospects.

On the day of murder, Holloway and her boyfriend gave Potts a ride to a Pittsburg home, where he got out of the car, went over to a sport utility vehicle that had pulled up nearby, then returned with a handgun and shot her.

Potts, 21, who waived a jury trial, had pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, but the judge concluded that he was sane.
