During an interview with Chuck Creekmur of AllHipHop, Suge Knight said he is looking to be released from prison after claiming his rights were violated during his 2015 hit-and-run case.
Knight argued that inaccuracies regarding his three-strikes record and a judge’s refusal to let him represent himself following the dismissal of his attorneys should result in his release from prison.
“So an unfixable error, the only thing you got to do is you got to make a deal and let me go home or show I was right, or you let me take my plea back and start all over,” he told AllHipHop. “But it’d be harder to start all over because you did all this b*tch sh*t with my case.”
He then claimed he was coerced into a plea deal and believed his 28-year prison sentence was unfair.
“This [is] my bed,” he told AllHipHop. “If they allowed me to go to trial, I would have won my case. I would have beat my case. But they didn’t. OK, I understand that, right? My crime carries two, six, 11 [years] if I was guilty. They gave me–naturally, they going to give me the high term, right? So my past, who I am, definitely is going to make sure I get some time. And I’m fine with that. But you don’t have the right to double me up.”
He continued, “You don’t have the right to give me time and a half. You don’t have the right to not let me have a lawyer. So, I wasn’t pushing the envelope as hard at first because I know I got to do some time. But I’ve been gone for nine years, so I did my time already.”
The former Death Row Records founder is serving his sentence at the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego.
