Suge Knight Out Of Jail
Last week, authorities say they discovered marijuana in Knight's pick-up truck after pulling the CEO over for a traffic violation. Knight was thrown in jail and released from the California Institution For Men earlier this week. He is now on house arrest with a 24-hour monitoring device attached to his ankle.
In exchange for his release, Knight must now wear the device for the remaining three months of his parole. Since weed was found in his truck, Suge must now submit to random drug tests and be in his home from 8.p.m to 6 a.m. Though he's presently free, Knight might still end up in a state facility following a review by the California Board of Prison Terms due to his past convictions.

Meanwhile, Dominic "Crooked I" Wickliffe has placed a temporary restraining order against Suge Knight and employees of Tha Row Records. SOHH.com reported earlier this month that Crooked I officially left the label in January after only releasing a few mixtapes and making cameo appearances on Deathrow. Apparently, the West Coast rapper has tried to move on, inking his Dynasty Entertainment to Treacherous/Universal and prepping the release of several projects, including a Life After Death Row DVD. However, Crooked claims that Suge has continued to scare-off other labels from working with him, telling them he is still signed to Tha Row. He reportedly has offered to transfer the rights to all the material he recorded as a Tha Row artist to Knight in return for being left alone.
