LOS ANGELES (AP) – Marion “Suge” Knight is scheduled to return to court Thursday for a hearing in which prosecutors will detail some of their evidence to support a robbery case against the former rap music mogul.
Knight is charged along with comedian Katt Williams with taking a celebrity photographer’s camera in September 2014, just days after the Death Row Records co-founder was shot in a nightclub.
Williams and Knight have pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors are scheduled to present evidence Thursday that could lead to a judge ordering the men to stand trial.
Superior Court Judge Ronald Coen will also preside over a hearing in a separate murder case against Knight. The Death Row Records co-founder is charged with running over two men outside a Compton burger stand in January, killing 55-year-old Terry Carter.
Knight, 50, has already been ordered to stand trial on murder, attempted murder and hit-and-run charges. His attorneys have said Knight was fleeing armed attackers when he ran over Carter and Cle “Bone” Sloan, an adviser on the film “Straight Outta Compton.”
