Hip hop mogul, Marion ‘Suge’ Knight collapsed in a courtroom a few moments after the judge set his bail at a substantial $25 million dollars. 

Suge Knight’s bail review hearing was in Los Angeles on Friday, March the 20th, 2015.

The prosecutor cited Suge’s violent history, which the most famous happens to be the night of September 7, 1996, when the Death Row entourage were involved in a fight inside the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, attacking Orlando Anderson, hours before Tupac’s shooting.

The courtroom was cleared shortly after that, paramedics were seen arriving at the scene and Suge was carried out on a stretcher into an ambulance and left the courthouse.

Knight’s defense attorney, Mathew Fletcher says the 49-year-old told him that he hasn’t been receiving medication for his blood clot and diabetic condition since Thursday. . .oh this is like, the day before. Fletcher further uttered that no information on Knight’s condition was instantaneously available after the incident. It is reported that this is Suge’s fourth time collapsing and been taken by an ambulance.

Suge Knight was arrested earlier this year on the counts of murder and a hit-and-run of 55 year old Terry Carter. This occurrence was caught on camera and started going viral on social media few weeks back. Even after that, Suge still pleaded “Not Guilty” for those charges. Come on Suge, the whole world saw the video!! What makes it even more interesting is the fact that his lawyer says Suge was being attacked and he was trying to flee the scene…how ironic!

The Death Row founder is also accused of being part of a scheme that has extorted more than $10 million from up-and-coming and established rappers as well, in recent years. The Superior Court Judge ordered that Marion Knight be held on a $25 million bail in the murder and hit-and-run case.

His attorney argued that this is a bit too much for the rap mogul to afford. Fletcher tried negotiating for a $2 million dollar bail, but unfortunately, Judge Coen does NOT share the same sentiments on this as he feels a higher amount was warranted.

Marion Suge Knight is the founder of Death Row which was one of the labels responsible for the growth of gangsta rap in America in the early 90’s. He later lost control of the label because of bankruptcy.
