Suge Knight given restraining order, accused of murder plot
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 27 May 2010
Following his arrest for alleged assault with a deadly weapon last week, hip hop mogul Suge Knight has now been given a restraining order by the LA County Superior Court following claims that he was behind a murder plot the day after that attack.
In court documents filed on Monday and seen by TMZ, the unnamed claimant says that on Friday Knight “had eight guys come to my house and told them to get me or kill me”. It’s not clear if this is the same man who was involved in the earlier alleged attack on Thursday, though the documents also say the Knight, who spent Thursday night in jail before being released on bail, told him “he was out now and going to take my life”.
The restraining order bars Knight from coming within 100 yards of his alleged victim and he is due to appear in court to answer the claims on 8 Jun.
