Rapper Kidd Creole has been convicted of manslaughter after stabbing a homeless man to death in 2017.
Nathaniel Glover, 62, also known as"Kidd Creole," was found guilty of manslaughter in the first degree on Wednesday for the deadly stabbing of 55-year-old John Jolly in Midtown in 2017.
The trial of rapper Kidd Creole began more than a week ago in New York City with his lawyer telling a jury it was self-defense when the hip-hop pioneer stabbed the homeless man to death.Prosecutors said the rapper stabbed Jolly twice in the chest with a steak knife after becoming enraged because he thought Jolly was gay and hitting on him. The stabbing happened as Glover was walking to his maintenance job in Midtown Manhattan shortly before midnight on Aug.
Celestin also said Jolly died from a dose of the sedative benzodiazepine that was given to him at a hospital, not the stab wounds.
