Chris Brown
Troubled singer, Chris
Brown, has been sued by incarcerated former Death Row Records
CEO, Marion "Suge"
Knight, over a 2014 shooting that occurred in Los Angeles at
the 1Oak night club. Knight was shot six times during the
incident, but refused to cooperate with police investigating
the matter. On Monday, cash strapped Knight
filed a lawsuit against multi-millionaire Brown, 1Oak
and singer Pia Mia Perez, who co-hosted the pre-VMA party at
the night club.
Knight,
member of the Blood Piru street gang in Los Angeles,
hypocritically alleges in his lawsuit that Brown is, "A
known gang associate with a history of violence and had a
well documented track record of hosting events and or
parties in which violence frequently erupted." However, this
point can be invalidated in court, as there is also a
history of violence regarding Knight, who was shot in a
night club before, during a Miami, Florida party hosted by
rapper Kanye West. Remember, when Knight was uninvited,
showed up at the club and got shot in the butt.
Brown's
lawyer can easily and credibly argue Knight is a violence
magnet. Knight is after all accused of murdering a Los
Angeles police officer who was dating his wife during their
separation. Knight is also on trial for murder in a hit and
run that saw him deliberately run over two people out of
rage regarding the "Straight Outta Compton" film he did not
want to be included in.
Suge Knight
While it is
believed Brown was the target of the 1Oak club shooting, it
will be difficult for Knight to find anyone to go on record
stating what people in the industry already know. There have
been attempts at killing Brown, which resulted in injuries
to others. Being a constant target of the Kabbalah Center
has turned Brown into a paranoid schizophrenic.
Knight is
demanding Brown pay all past and future medical bills in
association with his injuries from the shooting. He is also
leaving it to the discretion of a jury and the court to
decide how much money he should be awarded in the case. At
the end of the day, this lawsuit is really rich
coming from Suge. Knight is the man who caused the terrible
East Coast v. West Coast rivalry in the 1990s, where dozens
of people in America died in senseless acts of violence,
including the late rappers Tupac and Notorious B.I.G.
Knight is
also on trial for murder, in a case where there is video
evidence of the gruesome crime. Knight's criminal history
will likely give any civil jury pause. He is likely looking
for a quick settlement from Brown, 1Oak and Pia Mia, though
he is a walking target himself, due to the crimes he has
committed against others.
