EXCLUSIVE: Suge Knight’s harsh jail restrictions blamed on ‘massive scandal and cover-up’ that may involve Dr. Dre

512481750.jpg

Suge Knight and his attorney Thaddeus Culpepper appear in court on Feb. 26, 2016 in Los Angeles.

Suge Knight’s lawyer is claiming “a massive scandal and cover-up” that possibly involves a hit man and Dr. Dre are behind the Death Row founder’s extreme jail restrictions.

In a lengthy legal motion filed Friday, lawyer Thaddeus Culpepper argued Knight is being held without phone, mail or visitor privileges to keep him from “connecting” his pending 2015 murder case to the 2014 nightclub shooting that nearly killed him.

The filing alleges that the main sheriff’s detective now investigating Knight for murder also worked the nightclub investigation and previously told him a man identified only as “Tee-Money” confessed he was one of the shooters inside 1Oak.

SUGE KNIGHT TELLS COURT ABOUT HIS COLON ABSCESS, EMERGENCY APPENDIX SURGERY

The same detective “informed Knight that the gunman stated that Dr. Dre paid him and a friend $50,000 to kill Knight,” according to Culpepper’s motion.

Dr. Dre, 51, is the wildly successful rap mogul who released his 1992 breakthrough album “The Chronic” on Death Row but later cut ties to Knight.

The new court paperwork further claims that an off-duty sheriff’s deputy “was seen on video letting the gunmen in the front door of 1Oak.”

That same deputy allegedly was later seen at LAX airport "helping the gunmen flee the country,” the filing reviewed by the Daily News claims, and authorities "inexplicably released Tee-Money."

Knight, 50, was shot six times inside 1Oak but reportedly managed to walk outside and seek help after the barrage of bullets.

The Friday filing doesn’t state a motive for Dr. Dre to order a hit on Knight, but it references a recent news story titled “Can Knight Get A Fair Trial?” by writer Michael Douglas Carlin.

SUGE KNIGHT RUSHED FROM JAIL TO HOSPITAL WITH SEVERE ABDOMINAL PAIN

The Carlin story, attached as an exhibit to the motion, claims Knight was seeking money from Dr. Dre. It doesn’t link Dr. Dre to the 1Oak shooting but discusses various theories related to the 1990s rap wars, the still-unsolved murder of Tupac Shakur and alleged corruption.

Attempts to reach a rep for Dr. Dre were not immediately successful Monday.

Culpepper claimed in his motion that ever since Knight ran over two men with his truck in the parking lot of Tam’s restaurant in Compton, sheriff officials stopped giving Knight any information regarding 1Oak.

Dr. Dre may have had a role in Knight's harsh treatment in jail.
Knight turned himself in after the fatal hit-and-run in January 2015 and has been in custody ever since.

He has pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and attempted murder. He claims he was the victim of an armed assault and was fleeing for his life when he mowed down Terry Carter and Cle (Bone) Sloan, killing Carter.

Culpepper’s filing also claims investigators tried to use a jailhouse informant named Danny Timms to “screw” Knight.

It alleges investigators “wanted Timms to lie and state that Knight confessed that he intended to run over Carter.”

Culpepper wrote in his paperwork that it would be “impossible at this juncture to assess the veracity of the statements” included in his filing, but he argued Knight’s constitutional rights as a pre-trial detainee are being violated.

He claims the court should not have allowed the Sheriff’s Department to apply for and receive sealed orders eliminating Knight’s phone and mail privileges and visits with family.

His filing says only Knight and the Los Angeles County District Attorney have the right to seek sealing orders.

The lawyer even took aim at three judges overseeing Knight’s current legal matters.

“The supervising judge and two superior court judges worked in concert to violate these rules and several others to defraud defendant Marion (Suge) Knight of his United States and California constitutional rights,” the Friday filing states.

A DA spokeswoman had no comment Monday. The Sheriff’s Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Culpepper’s motion seeks to unseal the secret orders issued as far back as March 17, 2015, that have restricted Knight’s phone, mail and visitation privileges to communication with his lawyers only.

Presently, Knight is not allowed to communicate directly with any relatives, friends, spiritual advisors or private investigators.

A hearing on the unsealing motion is set for April 21.

The Suge Knight Trial: The Mysteries of 1 Oak

Things have been moving along in Suge World. After the bombshell motion accusing everyone and their mother of conspiracy (which was slapped down the other day btw), Suge appeared in court – this was April 21st – and apropos of nothing, started talking directly to Judge Coen, not through his lawyer, not about points of law, just a venting of emotion and urgency. “You should run for President!” he kept saying, along with lots of stuff about jailhouse informants and dark conspiracies within the Sheriff’s department. I’ll tell you more about that in another post.

For now, I want to break down what happened at 1 Oak. Because the ticking bomb in Thaddeus’s epic Motion to Unseal was the charge that a Sheriff’s Deputy helped gunmen attempt to murder the Sugar Bear at the 1 Oak nightclub in West Hollywood. You may have seen the headlines: “Suge Knight Claims Dr. Dre Tried to Have Him Killed – And the Cops Were In On It” (Daily Beast). Well, I was on the inside of all this stuff, going back nearly a year now.

But before I get to all that, a quick refresher.

It’s after 1am on August 24th, 2014 at a pre-VMA party hosted by Chris Brown, and the club is filled to capacity. In the middle is Katt Williams, the comedian, who allegedly calls Suge to the club on a pretext that’s unclear. Suge allegedly has the job of ‘minding’ Katt, what with Katt being bipolar and a tad unpredictable (here he is fighting a 15 year old). This, according to Toi, Suge’s fiancé.



Anyway, Suge says ‘sure, I’ll come down, I need to talk to Chris Brown anyway.’ He wants to smooth over some beef with people close to Brown. So he shows up, has a chat with Brown who’s and as he walks away, two gunmen open fire – in the middle of a crowded nightclub – hitting the big man six times. It’s mayhem and screaming, everyone scrambling for the exits. And yet, in all this, Suge manages to crawl to safety, eventually making it outside, covered in blood, where the police detain him in the back of a cop car assuming he was a suspect. The only reason he survives is because he turned his body to the side and the bullets went through his outer flesh rather than piercing his internal organs.

When I wrote about this for my Esquire story, no one mentioned a Sheriff being involved – and I talked to Toi, Suge’s fiancé, Thaddeus and Suge’s former lawyer Matt Fletcher, as well as several other off the record sources. A story was emerging, but I couldn’t publish anything – it was all hearsay. But now, that’s all changed. Thaddeus has made it all public record, accusing all kinds of people of all kinds of crimes. And among them is a Sheriff, whose name I first heard last July.

Here’s how it unfolded.

According to Toi, Suge was in his hospital bed after 1 Oak – with Toi at his side – when the investigating Sheriffs, Richard Biddle and Barry Hall, came by to show them both security video footage of the shooting. It was so clear that she had the same security system installed at the gym she owns in Sherman Oaks. They asked Suge to identify the shooters, and he refused. But Barry Hall called her later to say that they’d located one of them – he’d been holed up at a downtown apartment, leaving only to get cigarettes and a bite to eat. The cops nabbed him on one of these excursions and found him packing. He had to be, he said, because Big Bad Suge Knight was after him for the 1 Oak shooting – even though he had nothing to do with it! The cops checked his gun, and it didn’t match the one used in the shootings, and so, Toi told me, they let him go. The guy on the security camera footage who was opening fire in a crowded nightclub? They let him walk.

Thaddeus’s motion names that alleged shooter on page 8:

“[Sheriff Richard] Biddle informed Knight that the Sheriffs Dept detained a man named Tee-Money who claimed to be a shooter at 1 Oak. Biddle informed Knight that the gunman stated that Dr Dre had paid him and a friend $50,000 to kill Knight. The Sheriff’s Dept later inexplicably released Tee-Money from custody.”

So – who’s Tee-Money? Could it be this guy: Te-Money (left), an associate of Abou “Bu” Thiam (center), the brother of Akon (right) and former manager of Chris Brown?



Te-Money from West LA talks about Dolla's tragic death and working in music industry

As a minor Te-Money was sent to Youth Authority where he did almost 8 years, but he had his eye on working in the music industry, and through connections he made growing up in Mansfield Gangster Crips neighborhood, in West Los Angeles, he eventually linked up with Akon and has worked with many other notable artist behind the scenes shaping talent.

In 2009, Te-Money tragically lost one of his artists, Dolla, 21, when he was shot and killed at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles. Dolla had already worked with Lil Wayne, T-Pain and Akon, and was considered one of the best new talents in hip-hop at the time of his death. The shooter, Aubrey Berry, was tried for first degree murder but a jury acquitted him in 2010.


The conspiracy that Suge alleges is that Dr Dre is out to kill him and it’s not clear how Dre is connected to these guys. But sources close to Knight have told me that Bu Thiam and Knight have had a beef going back several years now. In 2009, Knight was beaten up by members of Akon’s security team in Scottsdale, Arizona. And it all came to the fore just weeks before 1 Oak when Knight went to visit Chris Brown in a Los Angeles studio and got into a fight with one of Brown’s associates. Was it Bu? The fight resulted in a death threat against Suge, which he heard about through the grapevine. And apparently, his future shooters successfully stalked him at Hollywood Hookah, just days before 1 Oak. That was why Knight went to talk to Chris Brown, to ask him to squash this death threat if he could.

Just to be clear – all of this is according to “sources close to Knight”. And it’s all very one sided. Beyond these allegations from Knight, I have no other evidence as yet. From what I can tell Bu Thiam is a successful music industry executive, the former head of A&R at Def Jam, and currently “the boss” on the Oxygen reality show, “Like A Boss”. His brother Akon is beloved for pledging to bring electricity to 600 million people in Africa. And Te-Money – I don’t know about him, but I’ve emailed him for a response to these charges. No response yet.

But I know what you’re thinking – what about this Sheriff, right? Bad lieutenant! OK, OK, I’m getting there.

It was July that Thaddeus called me, all excited. Mesereau was on the case, and one of the investigators they were using – whose name I can’t mention – had been told by a source within the Sheriff’s Dept that a Deputy named “Boyd” had been recently suspended for his involvement in the 1 Oak shooting. The word was that he’d been seen on the club’s security video letting the shooters in, and then later that night on the cameras at LAX airport, dropping them off, and giving them a bro-hug – helping them flee the country essentially.

Thaddeus didn’t know Boyd’s first name. But he knew that he worked at the San Fernando Courthouse, so I called one day: “Can I speak to Deputy Boyd?” And the woman who answered was like, “Oh Henry? He doesn’t work here anymore. I don’t know where he went…” I tracked down his salary information as a public servant – Henry A. Boyd – and I told Thaddeus.

And not long afterwards, another source emerged talking about a rogue Sheriff at 1 Oak. Only this time, the source was dead.



The man above is Russell Poole, an ex-LAPD investigator who had worked on the Biggie Smalls case back in the day. He was booted out of the LAPD, reportedly for exposing police corruption, but he never gave up on those cases, and in recent years, his investigations led him not to the LAPD but to the troubled Sheriff’s department. He had a wildly convoluted conspiracy that’s far too complicated to get into here, and he found an author, Michael Douglas Carlin, to collaborate with on two books over the last two years, exposing the Sheriff’s corruption, and claiming to solve both the Tupac and Biggie murders.

According to Carlin, Poole knew about Boyd. And on August 19th, he took this and his other findings to the Sheriff headquarters in Monterey Park to try to convince them to drop the charges against Suge. Much better to use Suge as a witness to solve these historic murders, he argued, and clear out some bad apples from the Sheriff’s Department in the process. But – and this story just keeps getting stranger doesn’t it? – Poole died in that meeting of a massive heart attack. Right there in the office of Captain Rod Kusch, head of LASD homicide. Needless to say, he was the first person ever to die in that office. And Carlin is convinced that the Sheriffs actually killed him in cold blood, after all, he had evidence of Sheriff corruption: “Did they pass him a drink what happened in there? We need to see the tape.”

There’s a lot about the Sheriffs that doesn’t smell right in this case – not least the fact that the same two Sheriffs are investigating Suge’s shooting at 1 Oak, and trying to put him away for murder at Tam’s… surely a conflict of interests! But this idea that a group of senior Sheriffs Deputies murdered an ex-cop in the middle of Sheriff’s HQ? Come on. I spoke to Captain Kusch about it, and I’m not going to accuse him of murder just off the cuff like that.

But that said, there are gaps in what he could tell me – no autopsy results, no confirmation of the names of people at that meeting, no access to the video of the event, nor even the core substance of what was discussed. And he did reveal that Poole had talked about a rogue Sheriff at 1 Oak. Was it Boyd? Kusch wouldn’t say.

So there’s something to this, but it’s right on that quivering line of paranoia where conspiracy theories live. I couldn’t go public with Boyd’s name at the time, not with such thin evidence. Carlin’s a lovely guy, but he’s not worked for a major journalistic organization – he’s more of an independent spirit, whose books have a hobbyist’s passion, all self-published, and with several vocal detractors. Like Thaddeus, he didn’t know that Boyd’s name was Henry until I told him, so how much did Poole actually know?

But Thaddeus had no such compunction – he named Henry Boyd in his motion.



It seems he felt emboldened by a KFI story that spoke of an unnamed Sheriff who’d resigned recently – even though this is information we already knew. But at this point, Thaddeus is so committed to the conspiracy narrative, that he even appended Carlin’s latest book, Chaos Merchants, as an exhibit on his Motion To Unseal. “I’m not saying I’ve got the proof, but I’m just putting it out there, so the public knows,” he told me. “There’s a big difference between the filings during a trial, and in the lead-up.” So it’s a tactic. He’s letting the media, and a potential jury, know that those Sheriffs, they’re up to something.

For now, the mystery of Henry A. Boyd remains. If it’s true, it’s earth-shattering – that a Sheriff would aid in a murder attempt in a crowded nightclub like that, and then be shielded by the thin blue line? It would go to the top of the now towering pile of evidence that the Los Angeles Sheriff’s department is riddled with corruption. And it wouldn’t be the first time that dirty cops have featured in the Suge Knight story – Death Row was littered with them.

But what Thaddeus needs is proof to get this story to stand up. I’m no attorney, but surely the next step is to subpoena Boyd, depose him or put him on the stand, file a motion to discover his case history, expose any gang associations, and break down his every last movement on the night of the 1 Oak shooting. But none of these things have been done. And we’ve known about Boyd since July.

For my part, I pestered the Sheriff’s communications department and filed a FOIA request, I did what I could. All I’ve received – on April 5th – was this: “This is an open court case, and due to ongoing litigation we can’t comment on your enquiries. But I can confirm that Henry Boyd has separated from the Sheriff’s Department in January 2016”.

So let’s see what happens. This case never fails to amaze me.

Next up, I’m going to tell you the story that Suge told Judge Coen that day, about how the Sheriffs jailhouse informants. Another sordid Sheriff conspiracy?

Suge Knight Sues Dr. Dre, Alleging Murder for Hire Plot

October 24, 2016
Suge Knight has filed a lawsuit against Dr. Dre alleging that the rapper-producer hired a hit man to kill him. The former Death Row Records exec claims that Dre had contracted the man who shot him seven times at Chris Brown's pre-VMA party in the summer of 2014. He says the L.A. County Sherriff's Department questioned a man, identified as "Damian" or "T-Money," who said Dre paid him for the attempted hit; Knight laments in the suit that despite this and 37 cameras in the nightclub where the shooting took place, no arrests were made. He is seeking unspecified damages, punitive and otherwise, for that and a few other claims.

Elsewhere in the lawsuit, Knight alleges Dre and Universal, who released Straight Outta Compton, paid a man $300,000 to finish the hit in January 2015. The man, Cle "Bone" Sloan, admitted to punching Knight during an altercation in the parking lot of Tam's Burgers in Compton before the exec drove away injuring Sloan and killing another man, Terry Carter.

"The lawsuit gives the proper motivation or at least explains what happened to Suge in the past year and a half," Knight's lawyer, Thaddeus Culpepper, tells Rolling Stone. "It sets the table for real discussion as to why he would just run people over. If the idea is that he was just a crazy man and ran some people because he's Suge Knight, no, there was a reason and we think we set it out pretty well."

"Given that Dre has had zero interaction with Suge since leaving Death Row Records in 1996, we hope that Suge's lawyer has lots of malicious prosecution insurance," a lawyer for Dr. Dre tells Rolling Stone.

Carter, the lawsuit says, had told Knight that Dre and Ice Cube wanted to discuss paying him for using his likeness in the movie. The lawsuit claims that Universal and Dre had paid Sloan and another man, Dwayne "Knob" Johnson, to serve as "technical advisors" on the movie – it claims Knight can prove a $20,000 check was written to Johnson, an amount it alleges is out of proportion with union scale.

Knight, who was charged with Carter's murder and is awaiting trial, has pleaded not guilty.

He also claims to be entitled to 30 percent of Dr. Dre's earnings for life as part of a lifetime management deal (including $300 million he claims he's owed as a result of Beats Music's sale to Apple). The suit also alleges that Dre's many delays of his Detox record were a tactic to avoid paying Knight.

Because Apple and Universal were aware of the contract provision, the lawsuit claims, they did not want to do business with Knight. (Apple is named as a defendant in the new suit.) It goes on to say, "Universal, Apple and Young developed a mutually agreeable scheme that would result either in Knight relinquishing his rights under the management contract or Young gaining the appearance of legal separation from Knight and the management contract through bankruptcy filings." Moreover, it claims that when Sloan was hired, "Universal, through the production of the film, provided [Dre] with capital, employees and the staging area through which to intimidate Knight and to ensure that Knight relinquished his right in the management contract payouts."

"Knight is at an extreme disadvantage in defend[ing] himself or prosecuting his claims herein because portions of the evidence that would help Knight prove his claims are sealed by protective order," it claims.

Suge Knight vs. Dr. Dre Lawsuit by mendle44 on Scribd
Source: Suge Knight Sues Dr. Dre, Alleging Murder for Hire Plot
==========================================
Some of the points I found interesting from the court documents on Scridb were;
In '96 Dre signed over his fifty percent stake in DR, his publishing and copyright to the Chronic and waved his rights to rescission. (The abrogation of a contract, effective from its inception, thereby restoring the parties to the positions they would have occupied if no contract had ever been formed.
rescission) It also states that there was a lifetime management agreement that provided that Suge would earn thirty percent of Dre's entertainment earnings in perpetuity. That would mean that Suge would get thirty percent of not only Dre's cut in the Beats deal but also his earnings for the Straight out of Compton movie. The lawsuit claims that Detox was never released in an attempt to not have to pay Suge. It alleges that Universal and Apple were both aware of the management contract and that both companies tried to keep it hush so their respective brands wouldn't be associated with Suge.

It said that Terry Carter's last words were: "Get that muthafukka Bone."

Evidently the Tam's Burger spot where the incident took place at is a known spot where people get shot/murked at.

When Bone was trying to take the keys out of Suge's truck he put it in reverse. Had he not, instead of Suge backing up and the side mirror knocking down Bone (which caused Terry to come over) he could have just drove forward and Bone wouldn't have been run over and neither would have Terry.

Says that Dre was questioned by one time in regards to Suge being shot at 1Oak after shooter fingered Dre as being the person who initiated the shooting. The motive listed was that so Dre wouldn't have to pay the thirty percent cut to Suge for the Beats deal which had just taken place prior to the shooting. If you remember Suge mentions that management agreement via TMZ shortly after the deal was done.

Embattled rap mogul Suge Knight has delayed his murder trial in a bid to reduce his $10 million bail.

The Death Row Records co-founder has been behind bars for more than a year while he awaits trial on charges of murder, attempted murder and hit-and-run following a dispute in Compton, California in January, 2015, when he struck and killed his friend Terry Carter and injured actor Cle Sloan as he tried to drive away from a fight.

His trial was scheduled to begin on February 22, 2017, but it has now been pushed back to May (17) to give Knight and his legal team time to present new evidence in a bid to lower his bail.

According to the New York Daily News, Knight will file the bail motion in the near future and plans to present evidence to support his claims producer Dr. Dre tried to have him killed following a bad business deal.

He alleged Dre, real name Andre Young, hired a hitman to kill him during a party before the MTV Video Music Awards at 1 OAK in Los Angeles in 2014, when he was shot several times.

He also claimed Sloan was hired by Young and associates and paid $300,000 to take out Knight.

“We have a really great shot at our next bail hearing,” Knight’s fiancee Toi-Lin Kelly said as she left the Los Angeles courthouse earlier this week. “Suge is really willing to go to trial tomorrow. That’s how much compelling evidence we have. We are very ambitious about moving forward to trial.”

Meanwhile, Knight is also battling a wrongful death lawsuit brought against him by Carter’s widow in June last year (15).

Former N.W.A band members Ice Cube and Dr. Dre were also initially named in the suit, but in October a judge cleared them of any responsibility for Carter’s death.

The altercation which led to Carter’s death took place on the set of N.W.A. biopic “Straight Outta Compton,” but neither Dre nor Cube were present when the trouble began.

Knight and Dre became rivals when the latter ended his dealings with Suge and Death Row Records and set up his own successful label.

I'm up to PT 7 right now and I must say it's pretty interesting
Some highlights include:
The videotape still existing of the gang meeting w Reggie wright Jr asking for permission to take out suge and PAC
An audio taped confession from one of the shooters
Them saying there was other southsiders in Vegas and that there were 6 barricades
In a deposition its mentioned Michael and Lydia Harris being involved ( I swear it said orlando a)
Suge Knight giving out 60 GS to kids in compton but only 3 making it to them because of POS reggie
Reggie lying to suge multiple times on Sept 7th and continuously calling Michael Moore to make sure he wasn't guarding 2pac
At the MGM a woman looking like shareitha Knight is walking with orlando and Reggie wright shakes his hand
Suge putting up 300 G'S to start the "police set"
At the infamous el Rey incident callers were saying that DJ quik committed the murder
Suge really slapping around snoop
Reggie wright SR casually telling Michael moore that if anything ever happened then Jr would take over the company
The encounter between snoop and bad boy happened in March 96 but sadly no more details
The glock 40 that was taken from Hussein fatal got brought to Reggie wright and then was supposedly given to his father but it matched ballistics on the gun used to shoot 2pac

I'm not too sure about the lil half dead part but Reggie wright jr looks suspect as hell and had everything to gain. I always found it funny how he'd talk slick on pac in interviews and it's even worse now knowing that he's in cahoots with kading. I thought Greg did an open and shut case but now it's got me looking like:patrice:

Suge Knight’s Lawyer Denies Making Statements Claiming His Client Was Intended Target of Deadly Tupac Shooting

Yesterday (April 4), The Daily Mail set the conspiracy theorist world ablaze when they published a detailed report claiming Suge Knight‘s lawyer, Thaddeus Culpepper, submitted an official affidavit claiming Knight’s chief of security, Reggie Wright Jr. and his ex-wife were responsible for the death of Tupac Shakur. The report also claimed Suge believed he was actually the intended target of that deadly shooting.

Now, Culpepper has stepped forth to vehemently deny the claims, invoking President Trump’s unofficial catchphrase while doing so. He offered up his denial in a statement to The Wrap. “Very recently, a press release was issued stating that Attorney Thaddeus J. Culpepper wrote and signed an affidavit regarding the assassination of Tupac Shakur,” reads Culpepper’s statement.

“The writers of the press release also state that the alleged affidavit contains statements from Suge Knight. The press release cites no author. As counsel for Mr. Knight, my duty is to assist him in proving his innocence in his present cases,” continues Culpepper. “I have never made any official statement regarding Tupac Shakur, nor have I made any statements on my client’s behalf regarding Mr. Shakur, written or otherwise. Articles relying on this unattributed press release are without merit. [T]hat affidavit is fake news.”

Suge’s son also shot down The Daily Mail‘s report, using his Instagram to do so. “This is terrible publicity stunt and these are the same ones that want to keep my father locked up,” wrote Knight. “Tryna Profit Off My Dads life is sick and he deserves his rights and freedom! They never mentioned him getting shot back then now they say this?”

Up until recently, Suge had been conspicuously quiet regarding ‘Pac’s untimely death and any details surrounding it, but apparently he believes the newly released documentary Tupac Assassination: Battle For Compton contains at least a few “salient points” regarding the unsolved case. Suge still believes he was the intended target of that tragic shooting, and former LAPD Detective Russell Poole, who died back in August 2015, pretty much shared Suge’s opinion on the matter.

“Suge wasn’t divorced yet and if he died in that hit, she’d [Sharitha Knight] get most of everything,” Poole said some time before his death. “So she went to Wright Jr., who was in charge of Death Row, and ran it while Suge was in prison.”

With Culpepper’s decisive denunciation of The Daily Mail‘s report, we’re still as far away from knowing the true story of what happened that fateful night in Vegas.
