A man named Tyrese Haspil was charged with the murder. He is only 21 years old, and he was busted at 8:45 am in the lobby of 172 Crosby St. in Manhattan. The Chief of Detective, Rodney Harrison, said that Haspil was a trusted employee of Saleh’s.
Haspil had worked as Saleh’s executive assistant, and he is the one who handled Saleh’s finances and personal matters. Rumors are swirling that Haspil owed Saleh a large amount of money. The debt came from Haspil’s alleged embezzlement of $100,000 from his boss, who in 2018, founded the company, Gokada, which was a motorcycle ride-sharing company that recently transitioned into a delivery service.
