According to MTV, Marion “Suge” Knight is blaming Kanye West for the loss of his 15-carrot diamond earring that was allegedly stolen from him a few years ago.
The Death Row Records CEO has filed a $135,000 lawsuit against Kanye for the incident that took place on September 12, 2005 at the pre-VMA party in which Knight was allegedly shot in the leg.
“It was reasonable foreseeable to defendants that the party would present a dangerous environment with the possibility of weapons (including firearms) being used by or against party guests given the well-known feuds that have at times pitched East Coast rap and hip-hop stars against West Coast rap and hip-hop stars, some of whom would be attending the party with their associates,” the lawsuit reads.
Knight claims to have suffered a shattered bone that required surgery, months of physical therapy, mental trauma and a loss of income.
Knight also claims that he has been “deprived of the use and enjoyment of the earring” and requests it to be returned or replaced.
