Suge Knight criticized Sean Diddy Combs after the hip-hop executive received a 50-month prison term on prostitution charges. Knight mocked the courtroom proceedings and suggested Combs received preferential treatment from federal officials. The Death Row Records founder compared his own 28-year manslaughter sentence to Combs' lighter punishment.
Knight stated he was denied speaking privileges at his sentencing, while Combs presented videos and made statements. Judge Arun Subramanian sentenced Combs on Oct. 3 to four years and two months after jurors convicted him of transporting people across state lines for prostitution but acquitted him of trafficking and racketeering.
Knight called the outcome lenient and claimed Combs maintains strong government connections. He described the sentence as one of the most favorable agreements in recent decades. Knight serves time for a 2015 hit-and-run that killed businessman Terry Carter after pleading no contest to voluntary manslaughter.
