Knight's 1997 mugshot for probation violation

Marion Knight, Jr., a.k.a Suge Knight (born April 18, 1965 in Compton, California), is co-founder and CEO of Death Row Records. The record label rose to dominate the charts after Dr. Dre's breakthrough success The Chronic in 1992. After several years of chart successes for artists including Tupac Shakur, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg and Tha Dogg Pound, Death Row Records fell into a stagnant limbo after Knight's incarceration on parole violation charges in September 1997.
