Matthew Hughes is found guilty of stalking and home invasion of Eminem for the second time.
Back in 2020, a man named Matthew David Hughes broke into Eminem‘s Detroit-area home, and now he’s been convicted for trying to enter the rapper’s home for a second time.
According to reports, the 31-year-old was seen on Detroit rapper’s property in August 2024 and was arrested three days later. He’s now convicted after a trial that lasted two days which also featured Eminem to testify. “People long for fame, they want fame. But fame can put you in a bubble. That’s the life that he (Eminem) has to live in. Why? Because of men like Matthew Hughes,” said Macomb County Prosecutor Steve Fox. Hughes is now facing several years in prison, and his sentencing will be on June 17.
The man who broke into Eminem’s house twice was convicted following a jury trial yesterday, Macomb Daily reports.
