Trouble Man: A History of Suge Knight Drama

Suge Knights receives $0 donations to his bail fund.

Steady Mobbing - Suge was put on probation for fighting two people inside the Death Row offices back in 1992. That incident came back to haunt him when he was sentenced to nine years in prison in 1996 for a parole violation after footage emerged of him kicking a rival gang member during a brawl in a Las Vegas hotel. Pac would later be shot that same night (Sept. 7), eventually dying a few days later on Sept. 13. (Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images)
Hit 'Em Up - Pac was rolling with Suge on Sept. 7, 1996, when the Death Row leader’s BMW was riddled with bullets on the Las Vegas strip. While Pac would eventually succumb to his wounds, Suge walked away with only bullet fragments in his head, although he claimed he was shot, too.  (Photo: AP Photo/Frank Wiese, File)

Vibe Awards Showdown - When Dr. Dre was sucker punched by a man at the second annual VIBE Awards in 2004, all fingers were pointed at the former Death Row boss. The melee ensued while The Chronic producer was about to be presented with the Legend Award by Snoop and Quincy Jones. No word on who amped the kid up, but police did scour footage to see if Suge violated his probation during the incident.(Photos from left: Winston Burris/WENN.com, Isaac Brekken/Getty Images for Beats by Dre, Ethan Miller/Getty Images)Gold Digger - It’s obvious that Suge should avoid pre-VMA parties at all costs. Back in 2005, he was shot in the leg and then sued Kanye West and the club’s owners claiming they didn't take the necessary security precautions. Suge didn’t get that million he was hoping for but reportedly they worked out an agreement behind the scenes after the case was dismissed.(Photos from left: Devone Byrd/ PacificCoastNews.com, Chelsea Lauren/Getty Images for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014)
