Suge Knight the co-founder of Death Row Records could face up to 28 years in prison after pleading no contest to “running over a man and killing him in a restaurant parking lot three years ago,” according to the District Attorney’s Offcie in Los Angeles County.
According to the National Public radio (NPR), “He angered to a plea deal that includes one county f voluntary manslauighter and admitted a special allegation that he used a deadly weapon, a truck, the DA’s office said.”
Prior to the agreement made Suge was already facing murder charges and attempted murder charges. These charges came about in January of 2015. The district attorney says, “an altercation occcured outside a Compton restaurant and Knight ran over two men with his truck.” This hit-and-run killed Heavyweigfht Records co-founder Terry Carter and injured filmmaker Cle “Bone” Sloan.
