Suge Knight and Los Angeles Weapons Charges

Posted on: May 20, 2010 at 5:33 p.m.

Suge Knight, the internationally known hip hop producer and founder of Death Row Records, is in trouble with the law once again. He was detained by the LAPD’s Robbery and Homicide Division for allegedly brandishing a weapon. The altercation took place in Los Angeles, but he was arrested in Gardena in his white Cadillac Escalade. He was allegedly flashing a weapon at a man and is also accused of robbery. Police are booking him for driving with a suspended license as well. Los Angeles Weapons Crimes carry heavy penalties, especially for individuals who have prior convictions. They can also make any violent crimes carry extra years in prison.

Suge Knight has a long criminal history, which could make any Los Angeles Weapons Crime charges more complicated. He was sent to prison in 1997 for 9 years over a parole violation (although released in 2001). He went to jail again in 2003 after assaulting a parking lot attendant. He has been involved in numerous weapons related charges and violent crimes over the last decade in both Los Angeles and Las Vegas. If a defendant commits a violent crime that is also a Los Angeles Weapons Crime, he or she will find themselves facing a felony charge which carries with it heavier jail time.
