Suge Knight Arrested for Murder Of Tupac #rumors

Former Death Row Records CEO Marion "Suge" Knight is a free man, despite rumors and reports of his arrest.

Rumors rampantly spread through the internet beginning early Wednesday morning (December 29) claiming that Suge Knight was arrested by Los Angeles police for the 1996 murder of rapper Tupac Shakur. The rumor was fueled by social networking sites such as twitter, where many radio personalities throughout the country picked up on the false information.

The rumor stemmed from the release of a video on YouTube, which shows a previously recorded Fox Los Angeles news cast reporting on the murder and documentary of the late rapper. Footage from a recent arrest of Suge Knight from KTLA was mashed up with news video, where a reporter stated that the fallen rap mogul had been arrested for Tupac's murder. Despite the authentic look of the video, discrepancies could be found in the video, including the date of the arrest footage, along with poorly dubbed audio over one of the reporters' voices.
