Ward 8 Councilmember Trayon White has questions about the official narrative about the homicide of Los Angeles rapper Nipsey Hussle on Sunday, and he has been posting conspiracy theories about Hussle’s death on his Instagram account.

“5 shots to the body 1 to the head,” wrote White in a post with screenshots of an article outlining Hussle’s philanthropic efforts. “I been around violence all my life and never heard of someone that precise and intentional. That sounds professional. What’s the real truth?”

After DCist contacted White’s office about the posts, the caption was edited to remove the portion that said: “I been around violence all my life and never heard of someone that precise and intentional. That sounds professional.” White and his office have not responded to repeated requests for comment.

On Tuesday, the Los Angeles Police Department arrested 29-year-old Eric Holder in connection with Hussle’s killing. Police said the shooting stemmed from a personal dispute.

“We believe they were known to each other,” LAPD chief Michel Moore said at a press conference on Tuesday. “It appears to be a personal matter between the two of them, and I’ll leave it at that.”

But since Hussle, born Ermias Asghedom, was killed, conspiracy theorists have connected his death to his reported work on a documentary about Dr. Sebi, an herbalist who claimed that a diet he developed could cure AIDS and other illnesses. White appears to be among the people promoting the unfounded claim.

Other posts from the past two days on White’s Instagram account include a screenshot of a tweet from February that calls on people to protect Hussle while he worked on the documentary. “Man is basically going against Big Pharma, not too many ppl have made it of that alive,” [sic] the tweet reads, and White drew attention to its date from more than a month ago. White also posted a clip from an interview with Hussle about his documentary. “Hussle, be careful man,” the interviewer says. “Your plane’s gonna go down.” Another post, in which White accuses someone in a photo alongside Hussle of being an informant, has been deleted altogether.

This isn’t the first time the Ward 8 councilmember, who was first elected in 2016, has used social media to promote unsubstantiated claims. White published a video on Facebook last March that said the Rothschilds, a famous family of Jewish financiers, controlled the weather—a conspiracy theory long viewed as anti-Semitic. He had previously asked about the family’s influence over the federal government and World Bank at a gathering of top city officials. White apologized, while maintaining that he didn’t know about the conspiracy theory’s anti-Semitic history.

That controversy didn’t appear to dampen his support in Ward 8, and political consultant Josh Brown doesn’t think his Nipsey Hussle posts will, either. “Trayon White’s social media posts will only come back to bite him if he makes comments that offend members of key constituency groups that have political weight in D.C.,” says Brown, a partner at DP Strategies Group who previously worked on At-Large Councilmember Anita Bonds’ special election campaign in 2013 and on her committee staff, and for Ward 2 Councilmember Jack Evans’s unsuccessful 2014 mayoral run. “There’s no constituency that will push back hard against these comments and cause him to face any sort of electoral consequences,” he says.

Brown says that White “uses his social media to show his constituents that he is one of them, and if his base feels like he is speaking truth to power, they’re more likely to support him in the next election.” White got top marks from the Washington City Paper, which graded each D.C. councilmember’s social media presence and gave him an “A” for his “obsessive posting,” which range from championing the strength of black women to videos of him sinking three-pointers in a basketball game.

White also recently posted a video of Hussle explaining why he chooses to invest his money in assets like real estate rather than diamonds. “I’m trying to get real assets, take care of my peoples,” Hussle says. In addition to his Grammy-nominated music, Hussle was known for his impact in the community. He helped establish a STEM center and co-working space for children in need in Los Angeles, an initiative he said he hoped to bring to D.C., among other cities. Several local organizations are holding a candlelight vigil in his honor on Thursday in Malcolm X Park.
