The late LAPD detective Russell Poole also claimed Sharitha had a motive for murder, saying: “Suge wasn’t divorced yet, and if he died in that hit, she’d get most of everything.” The new documentary "Tupac Assassination: Battle for Compton" reportedly inspired Knight to tell his lawyer “the theories in the movie were true.”

Tupac was rushed to nearby University Medical Center after the horrific shooting. Clark County Coroner Investigator Ed Brown came to the hospital at 4:15 p.m., writing: "Upon my arrival ... I found no apparent life signs, and trauma was observed to the right hand, right hip and right chest under the right arm, apparently caused from gunshots."
