Suge Knight gets 28 years in prison

[Gil Bang 26091]

Adios mofo.

Without a doubt the most legitimate and literal "gangster" in rap history.

Bet that doesn't go well for him.

Next to Derka.

What's the point of pleading no contest and getting 28 years when you are already 53?   Based on his reputation and track record, i doubt there is any way he gets an early release.   Seems like 28 years is pretty much life.  Why not keep swinging.   Maybe the 'next' jury tampering effort might actually work.

The "no contest" plea is to protect his assets in case of civil suit.

I think his point is why plead at all?  And, despite perhaps not being eligible or granted parole, California is notorious for overcrowding releases.

Suge Knight was a true gangster indeed.

Tragic all around.

He grew up in a strict, two-parent working class home and was a normal teen by all accounts, then just went rogue. I’m not sure that he was technically a Blood member and it wasn’t like he grew up in the foster system and had a fucked up childhood. He was a little privileged. Full college football scholarship then he fucked it up. I wouldn’t classify him as a true gangster though. He just had money and power and a tough persona but was deep down a punk(I wouldn’t fuck with him though). He’s not even feared in prison plus there is a contract out on him anyway*. The streets don’t respect him. He’s a piece of shit but I feel for his family that tried their best with him.

*according to gang documentaries and my LA cousins.

Sounds like a kid I went to school with. Grew up upper-middle class, had both parents, they seemed very involved and were always respectful and considerate to other parents during the football season, then I find out he's in prison for holding up a gas station for no reason. He wasn't an addict, he wasn't homeless, he just felt like robbing someone. Sometimes, a person is just a psychopath, regardless of the efforts of their parents. Sad stuff.

I spent some time working for Suge back in 89/90 before Death Row.  He was very charismatic.  If you met him, you would like him.  He was also very “street smart” and a natural, instinctive leader. 

I have no idea about his upbringing, but he was definitely close to the Pyru bloods if not an actual member/alumni.  He also was no punk — at least at that time (around 25 years of age).  He probably would score high on a test to identify sociopaths.  Empathy was not something he possessed.

I witnessed some crazy ass shit and even took a punch from him once.

Mama tried.

Did he hang you over a balcony ala Vanilla Ice and Johnny Drama? Lulz. I was just restating what my LA family said. I guess in his old age, he may have softened up thus the “punk”reference. My buddy works in Marquee in Vegas where Suge was a regular there and he always said he was super cool. Oh well, Thug Life catches up to you one way or another.

I guess he was just one of those raging, narcissistic sociopaths who are more sociopath than the average raging asshole.

not quite, but it was a scenario in which you just take your lumps.  another guy there at the time didn't just take it and wound up with his jaw wired shut and drinking his meals for about 6 weeks.

[Vic Mackey 47256]

Karma is a bitch. He had that coming for a long time.

[Goredho 17462]

Yep, I don’t think many will be shedding tears over his fate.  He had a pretty amazing rise and fall.

[Rip76 4985]

I actually thought he was dead.

Perhaps you were thinking of another biggie rap star.
