Things are not looking up for Suge Knight as the once feared dictator of Death Row records passed out in a courtroom after hearing his $25 million bail in a murder case. Once Knight heard the judge's decision his eyes glazed over and he smacked his head on the chair.
Once Knight fell to the ground the courtroom cleared and paramedics came in with a stretcher. As of now his condition is up in the air and nobody knows whether he's healthy or not. Defense Attorney Matthew Fletcher doesn't believe anything is wrong with his client although he did go on to say he has a blood clot and is diabetic.
Fletcher also speculates that his client may have passed out because he's been in solitary confinement and hasn't had a chance to be given his medication. This is apparently the fourth time Knight collapsed in the middle of these court proceedings. Fletcher hoped to bring down the bail to a more manageable $2 million after Knight plead guilty to murder, attempted murder and hit-and-run charges but District Attorney Cynthia Barnes says that Knight has stolen from so many up and coming rappers, the high bail is fair. Fletcher fired back by saying there is no evidence of this but the amount still remains $25,000,000. Still, Fletcher still holds true to his clients' innocence. According to him: "If his name wasn't 'Suge' Knight, they wouldn't have filed this case," Fletcher said. He believes Knight was lured to the scene where he allegedly ran a man over and killed him. His family also holds true to the fact that Knight is innocent. Back in August they released this statement on his Twitter page.

Knight was the king of the rap world at one point but he has since fallen from stardom. In the nineties he made millions of dollars when guys like Dr. Dre and Tupac were still up-and-coming rappers. Now, all these years later his history of alleged violence may be catching up to him.
