Suge Knight appears in court for hearing on charges he ran over two men, killing one
'I'm no snitch,' says witness at Marion 'Suge' Knight murder case hearing
A man allegedly run over by former rap mogul Marion Suge Knight in Compton received immunity by Los Angeles County prosecutors to prevent his testimony Monday from being used against him.
Despite the immunity, Cle Bone Sloan divulged little and maintained that he could not recall who was driving Knights truck when Sloan was run over Jan. 29 outside Tams Burgers.
'Suge' Knight back in jail cell after collapsing in court
Sloan, 51, appeared in court Monday for Knights preliminary hearing. The former head of Death Row Records is charged with murder and attempted murder for allegedly running over Terry Carter, 55, who was killed, and Sloan, who was injured. Knight has pleaded not guilty.
Police said the incident was the violent end to a dispute that had been brewing since at least earlier that day.
Sloan was on a Compton film set for a shoot promoting the upcoming biopic Straight Outta Compton on the rap group NWA when Knight arrived, according to investigators. Sloan was acting as a facilitator between local gangs and the movies producers.
Speaking about Knight, Sloan testified Monday that, he always gets under my skin.

Prosecutors read from a transcript of comments Sloan apparently told detectives after the confrontation. In it, Sloan reportedly told Knight he got the white folks scared on the set and then asked him to leave.
On the stand Monday, Sloan was overcome with emotion and started crying. He said he couldnt remember much about the deadly crash.
"I don't want it to get misconstrued that I told on this man," he said, pointing at Knight. "I'm no snitch. I will not be used to send Suge Knight to prison.
But Deputy Dist. Atty. Cynthia Barnes continued to point to the transcript of Sloans conversation with police. She asked Sloan if he recognized Knight at the burger stand that day.
No maam, Sloan replied.

When Barnes asked Sloan if Knight was behind the wheel of the truck that injured him, Sloan replied, I cant say this man ran me over.
Barnes read back a portion of the transcript where Sloan apparently told detectives he punched Knight in the face and we started fighting. But on Monday, Sloan said he didnt remember saying that.
Sloan testified he may have embellished his comments to detectives, and at other times, he said, he didnt recall specifics of the incident or remembered only scant details.
The confrontation left him with two fractured ankles, torn ligaments in both knees and 17 stitches on top of his head.
When the judge said he believed Sloan was being deceptive, Sloan just shook his head.
At one point in the morning hearing, a coroner testified Carter was killed by blunt-force trauma after he was run over. Barnes picked up a photograph of Carters bloodied, bruised face to show to the coroner.
Carters daughter, sitting in the audience behind the prosecutor, caught a glimpse of it. She audibly gasped and ran out of the courtroom.
Prosecutors planned to lay out more evidence in the case during Monday's hearing, where a judge is expected to rule whether there is enough evidence to go to trial.
In court documents filed last month asking that Knights bail be set at $25 million, Deputy Dist. Atty. Cynthia Barnes described Knight as a prolific and unrepentant criminal who has led a shameless life of crime.
To back up the claim, Barnes documented the Death Row Records co-founders extensive brushes with the law in nearly 300 pages of written arguments and supporting evidence, including police reports and an affidavit that she said implicate Knight in robberies, extortion, money laundering, assaults and witness intimidation.
Surveillance video from the burger joint, which was released last month by TMZ, captures Knights truck striking Carter and Sloan. The former rap moguls attorney, Matthew Fletcher, said the video shows Knight being attacked while he sits inside his truck before speeding off, saying his client acted in self-defense.
During a court appearance last week in a separate case, in which Knight and comedian Micah Katt Williams are accused of stealing a photographers camera, the Death Row Records co-founder was wheeled into the hearing in a stretcher-like chair.
Knight has been hospitalized during several court hearings this year and his attorney has said hes not getting proper medical care.
