Suge Knight Sentenced To 28 Years In Prison

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

Former rap mogul Marion "Suge" Knight was sentenced to 28 years in prison Thursday for the death of a man during a hit-and-run incident on the set of the movie "Straight Outta Compton."
Knight, 53, pleaded no contest to manslaughter earlier this month in connection with the death of Terry Carter.

The former Death Row Records co-founder had been facing life in prison for Carter's death and one count of attempted murder in the case of Cle "Bone" Sloan, who was maimed after Knight allegedly struck the pair with his truck.

Knight had also been charged with one count of hit-and-run.

Video of the incident showed a truck driven by Knight pulling into the entrance of a Compton restaurant near the site where the movie was being filmed in 2015.

The driver of the truck is seen being approached by Sloan, a security guard, and the two men appear to talk for a few moments, with Knight remaining inside the vehicle.

Suddenly, the vehicle backs up, knocking Sloan to the ground. While still in reverse, the truck moves out of range of the security camera.

The vehicle is then seen zooming forward, back into camera range, running over Sloan a second time, and then running over a second man, Carter, a former rap music label owner.

Carter later died.

Yeah, I remember that video. No way he was getting away with this he knocked the dude over, ran him over and then did it again

Hey, most are probably happy when they go from Death Row to only doing years.

Dude's been a super-villain in the music industry for years now. This was a long time coming.

[Hit Girl]

In my head canon he's been placed in Cell Block 4 with Gusto.

[Baldobomb-22-OH-MAN!!!]

Yeah as scary as he was, the guy who played Suge in "Straight outta Compton " wasn't nearly psycho enough.

Suge kinda seems like a real-life Wilson Fisk, outside of that whole "not being caught" part.

Yup this is somewhat like OJ where bro you got away with some high profile shit and in your old age you couldn't stay out of trouble

Like you can't even put on screen how bad a villain he is because you would think the shit was fake and coming from a comic book

[Deleted]

Not sure how many years he's gonna do but shit I'm surprised this even happened. Took a lot for that man to be sent in.

At least 15-20

They not letting him out until he approaches 70

Isn't Suge still rumored to be the dude behind Tupac's murder?

Biggie

Suge was in the car with Pac when he got shot up

[Glitch]

It's amazing how far he has fallen even before this sentencing.

The guy was running a label in the 90s that was making a ton of money. Then years later he's broke with all his stuff seized. I remember seeing his red suit up for auction on some reality show.

Although I would say this is all too good for him considering he probably got away with crimes that no one caught him doing.

Surprised he changed his plea to "No Contest" from his original plea of "I ain't sayin' shit" and then "I ain't no snitch."

Was this the producer that was involved in the lawsuit with Ke$ha some years back?

I'd have to find the video again, but Will Smith tells a fascinating story about meeting Michael Jackson at...I wanna say the BET Awards, but I may be wrong about that, in the 90's, and the only reason they wound up in the same room together is because Suge Knight just ARRIVING to the proceedings threw the whole affair into such chaos that security guards were rushing people away. He's a cartoonish level of villain for being a real guy.

There are plenty of articles out there about the rise and fall of Death Row Records, but check out this one right here. It really showed how Suge's pettiness got the better of him and that it led to the label's downfall.
