Suge Knight tells his story about Tupac Shakur's last days from behind bars. The former Death Row Records executive shares what happened after gunmen shot both men during 1996. Knight claims the rapper asked his mother Afeni to let him die rather than face another prison term. The music mogul says these memories still bother him years later. Knight was driving when bullets hit their car at a Las Vegas red light.

Knight took shots to his head during the attack. Tupac suffered multiple wounds to his chest, arm and leg areas. The former executive managed to drive a few blocks before police officers heard the gunshots. Emergency workers rushed both men to University Medical Center for treatment. Knight walked out with stitches after doctors patched him up.

Tupac remained awake and talking when Knight visited his hospital room. The rapper asked for cigarettes and alcohol despite being badly hurt. Knight says his friend joked around and seemed like himself at first. The situation changed as pain and fear about returning to jail overwhelmed Tupac. Knight claims the rapper directly asked him for help ending his life.

Afeni Shakur made the hardest choice any mother could face according to Knight. The grieving woman allegedly gave her son pills and told medical staff to stop saving him. Doctors placed Tupac on life support after his condition worsened. He passed away on September 13th around four in the afternoon. Tupac's family has not responded to Knight's version of events.
