#FreeSuge
Last month, Suge Knight was sentenced to 28 yeas in prison, after pleading no contest to voluntary manslaughter for the infamous Straight Outta Compton hit-and-run. The iconic music mogul spent the last three years in Los Angeles County Jail, awaiting trial.
However, the Bompton rep was transferred to Wasco State Prison to serve out the rest of his time.
This week, his official parole edibility date was revealed by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Following his admission date last week, Big Suge can get parole in October 2037 – pending approval. Beforehand, he wanted to take the case to trail, but was facing 140 years inside.
So, instead of blowing trial, he settled for a plea deal, which won’t include an appeal. Pending his release, Mr. Knight will be 72 years of age when he gets out in two decades.
