The source of the narrative that
Suge Knight was behind the murder of Tupac Shakur was clearly the Sheriff’s
Department.[1]
They tell of Snoop telling them that Suge was behind the murder of Tupac as
detailed in the Sheriff’s report of 1998. But the person that gave the
narrative legs was Russell Poole. He believed the Sheriff’s had provided a
valuable clue and that Suge Knight was responsible because all of the evidence
pointed to Death Row Records. Russell Poole was the one that shouted this from
the rooftops. But as he continued to investigate the murders of Tupac Shakur
and Christopher Wallace, without being paid a dime, he became increasingly
convinced that Suge Knight had nothing to do with the murders. This was a very
big shift in Russell’s view and for the case it is significant.
In the case of rapper Tupac Shakur,
Suge was sitting in the driver seat of the BMW and Tupac was in the passenger
seat when the shots rang out. Why would Suge Knight put himself in the cross
hairs that night? In the case of Christopher Wallace, Suge Knight was in jail
with very limited access to the outside world. It would be very difficult for
him to have carried out or to have participated in any way in the murder.
Russell, who had been the leading
spokesman for the “Suge Knight killed Tupac” narrative had re-examined the
evidence and changed his position. He had come to understand the distinction
between Suge Knight and Death Row Records. Russell came to understand that
there was a plot to kill both Suge Knight and Tupac Shakur by insiders at Death
Row Records and that the corrupt Compton Police were in on the plot.
Many of those corrupt Compton
Police Officers were absorbed into the Sheriff’s Department[2]
and Russell was heading into a meeting with the friends and associates of the
suspects in the murders of Tupac Shakur and Christopher Wallace. Russell headed
into the lion’s den. We hear the words “come alone” in many movies and
television shows. Russell was requested to “come alone.” He had the courage to
show up “alone” to stare down corruption at the source. The Wright
Jr./Dupree/Kading camp released information that they knew about the meeting
weeks before it occurred. .”[3]
The day before the meeting the investigator
had confirmed the information that Russell had received that an off-duty
Sheriff had participated in the “hit” on Suge Knight by letting the shooters
into the nightclub on August 24, 2014 – just a month after Reggie Wright Sr.’s
retirement party from the Sheriff’s Department and that the off-duty Sheriff
also drove the shooters to the airport and was captured on video making the
drop. The investigator also confirmed that the crime scenes in both the 1Oak
shooting and the Tam’s Burger aka “Murder Burger” incident had been supervised
by Richard Biddle as a clear conflict of interest.
So if the Sheriff’s are the source
of the “Suge Knight killed Tupac” narrative and the locations of the recent
attempts to kill Suge Knight were selected because “Sheriff’s” would respond.
Dupree gets a confession letter and leaks it through Kading onto the Internet
and one of the attempts on Suge happens six days after the letter is leaked.[4] Kading
is the one that says he learned about the meeting a few weeks before it happened. [5] It
is starting to look like the corruption, we all were lied to about as having
been contained and curtailed as “The Rampart Scandal,” still exists within the
LAPD and the Sheriff’s Department and Russell was headed straight into it… as
requested… alone.
Russell discovered the truth. He
was heading to the Sheriff’s Headquarters to get an investigator to work with
the DA’s office to begin the process of bringing the responsible parties to
justice. There are simply those in the Sheriff’s Department that wanted to
derail Russell’s plan – and however they accomplished it – they succeeded.
38 video cameras at the 1Oak
nightclub were recording video at the time Suge Knight was shot. An off-duty
Sheriff let the shooters into the club and took them to the airport. All of
this, is known by the Sheriff’s and yet there is no arrest for attempted murder
in a very public setting. Isn’t that a huge violation of public trust as
killers are on the loose Sheriff’s could have captured and taken off of the
streets? Are the Sheriff’s going to be responsible for the next murders these
killers perform? Are the Sheriff’s going to be named in a wrongful death
lawsuits for not having done their job? They cite “Suge Knight as
uncooperative” as the reason they don’t need to do their jobs because it sets
up their reason to go after Suge Knight at Tams.
Suge is lured down to Tams by Terry
Carter. He is assaulted when he arrives. I showed the video to 50 people who
all said it is a gun that is put into a waistband. “The gun” has been labeled
by the Judge as a walkie-talkie. Sounds like a railroad job to me. If you don’t
believe it is a railroad job simply listen to all of the statements that have
been made by the DA’s office. They all talk about crimes Suge Knight has
committed that he was never arrested or convicted of. They have tried to taint
the jury pool. They cut the deal with David Kenner after he was fired by Suge
to move the venue to downtown from Compton where the jury pool would be White
and Latino instead of African-American.
Now I have been researching Suge
Knight and Death Row Records for the better part of two years. I know Suge
Knight is not an angel. But aren’t there enough things he has done and been
convicted of doing that we don’t need to have our own prosecutor (the people’s
prosecutor) engaging in speculation about crimes he may have committed?
Russell knew that Suge Knight was
set up at Tams and 1Oak because the Sheriff’s would respond there. He knew that
perpetrators of these crimes chose venues where investigators close to Reggie
Wright Sr. would respond so that Suge Knight could be put away for good and the
investigations would be instantly skewed against Knight. The fact that no
charges have ever been brought against Knight’s attackers from 1Oak and that charges
against Cle “Bone” Sloan (part of the Dupree/Wright Jr./Kading camp[6])
were never filed for assault that he admits to and gloats about in much the
same way that Reggie Wright Jr. gloats about the passing of Poole seems to
confirm that Knight was not treated fairly. Remember that 38 cameras in the
1Oak club caught everything on video and that the off-duty Sheriff was fired
for his misconduct while working off-duty as security that night at 1Oak and he
was not charged for his crimes.
Russell went in to that meeting
knowing that the case against Suge Knight was crumbling around the Sheriff’s.
Knight’s legendary feud with Reggie Wright Jr. that has been public will
certainly be a factor in the trial. Reggie Wright Sr.’s recent retirement from
the Sheriff’s Department[7]
makes any investigation of Knight by Sheriff’s close to Reggie Wright Sr. a
glaring conflict of interest. There is no way for Suge Knight to get any
unbiased investigation by the Sheriff’s and they know they have these severe
problems with their case.
Russell went into that meeting
asking cops to do the right thing and initiate an investigation into the son of
one of their own. He had the courage to look them in the eyes and demand that
they do the right thing even if it meant crossing that blue line. He had the
courage to ask LAPD to do the same thing so many years ago.
I have seen no evidence that
Russell was handed anything tainted in that meeting or that Sheriff’s failed to
render aid but both of those scenarios should be fully investigated. It is far
more likely that Russell met with arrogance and agitation that triggered his
life ending heart attack but Russell had the courage to walk in that room and
stand toe to toe with the corruption he has battled since the Rampart Scandal.
Now Jim McDonnell and all of the honest hard-working Sheriff’s, who Russell
trusted with his life must do the right thing and sweep that corruption out of
Los Angeles.
