Hospitalized rap mogul Marion “Suge” Knight‘s son has come forward to address his dad’s publicized situation. Suge J. Knight has issued a statement on his pops receiving medical attention.

Suge Knight Jr. went to Instagram last night (April 5) to assure fans his pops would survive this situation.

Yesterday reports revealed Suge had remained hospitalized for at least two days.

Suge was moved from L.A. County jail on Tuesday, around 11 AM, and was admitted to a Los Angeles hospital. It’s unclear why Suge — who’s in jail awaiting trial for murder — had to be rushed to a hospital for treatment, but he’s had several health issues since he was arrested and locked up in 2015. In 2017, he was treated for blood clots … which have been a recurring issue for him. Suge also passed out during a court hearing. (TMZ)

Last month, a couple of former Knight attorneys pleaded their innocence after getting accused of witness tampering in his murder case.

Matthew Fletcher and Thaddeus Culpepper entered the pleas Friday in Los Angeles County Superior Court to counts including conspiracy to commit bribery and conspiracy to obstruct justice. Fletcher’s attorney Mark Geragos said outside court that the men’s indictment is a “full frontal assault on those who practice criminal defense.” Knight is awaiting trial for murder and attempted murder after hitting two men with his truck outside a Compton burger stand in 2015. He has pleaded not guilty. (AP News)

Back in August, buzz developed about Suge allegedly trying to bribe a murder case witness.

The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office based the allegations on a series of prison phone calls between Knight and his lawyer. (Rolling Stone)
