Jerry Heller's Lawyer Blames Death on 'Straight Outta Compton'

Jerry Heller, the former manager of N.W.A., has died and his lawyer is blaming his death on the away he was portrayed in the movie Straight Outta Compton.

The former music mogul was reportedly “heart broken” over the way he was painted as “a crook” in the film and it caused him a “tremendous amount of stress,” according to TMZ.

Jerry was in a car accident on Friday (September 2) and his family was told that he appears to have suffered a heart attack prior to the crash.

“Jerry Heller would be alive today if not for that movie,” the lawyer said. He believes the stress from the film caused the heart attack and eventually his death.
