co-founder was previously on remand without bail after he was accused
of murdering businessman Terry Carter in January and injuring Cle ‘Bone’ Sloan
by running them over with his car following an altercation. During an
appearance at his bail hearing at the Criminal Courts Building in Los Angeles
on, Friday, March 20, the 49 year-old rapper was told his bail was set for $25
million before he collapsed and was taken to a hospital for monitoring. The
judge decided that the rapper could be a danger if he was bailed, given his
criminal record, gossip website TMZ reports. Meanwhile, it was previously
revealed that Suge’s legal team was seeking bail for the rapper as they felt it
was difficult for a man who is a 6’3’, 315lb African American to hide, also
referencing his status as a well known public figure. The music mogul insisted
he would accept home detention with an electronic monitoring bracelet but the
authorities expressed concerns that he ‘instills fear’ wherever he goes and are
worried about the chances of him intimidating any witnesses. Since being held
in custody, Suge has suffered a number of health problems, most recently, he
claimed he only had 15% vision in one eye and was completed blind in the other.
If convicted of murder, Suge could face a life jail term in a state
penitentiary....
