Tanisha, the mother of Emani Asghedom, reportedly broke down in tears after seeing her daughter in court today.
Via TMZ:
Nipsey Hussle’s sister, Samantha Smith, and his brother,Blacc Sam, appeared in L.A. County Superior Court Tuesday for a hearing on the guardianship of the rapper’s 10-year-old daughter, Emani Asghedom. Emani’s mother, Tanisha, was at the hearing as well and broke down crying when she saw her daughter for the first time in what she said was months.
The courtroom was cleared for 20 minutes while Tanisha and Emani spent some time together. However, the hearing was pushed until Friday when a final decision is to be made on custody and finances.
Samantha filed legal docs requesting guardianship last month because our sources say she believes the child’s biological mother is unable to care for her.
Nipsey took care of Emani before he was killed, but Samantha says she’s helped raise her too and is seeking legal guardianship “to ensure the continued stability for Emani and ensure that she will be able to maintain her current and ongoing relationship” with their family.
Nipsey’s brother, Blacc Sam, has also filed a declaration in support of Samantha getting guardianship of their niece. Meanwhile, Sam’s in a legal fight of his own to take control of his brother’s estate … including $2 million worth of assets.
This is a tough situation to even speak about. We don’t know whether or not Tanisha is capable of taking care of her daughter, but if she is, I don’t think she should be written out of her life.
