Matthew Fletcher, the ex-attorney of disgraced rap mogul Marion 'Suge' Knight, has been fighting charges he conspired to bribe witnesses in Knight's murder case.
for helping Knight violate a court order. Sheriff’s detectives also seized a journalist’s phone and sought to force two filmmakers to testify at a grand jury hearing connected to the case in 2018.
As the witness tampering investigation progressed, prosecutors had a confidential informant approach Knight and offer to help with his case. Knight sent the informant to Fletcher, who suggested witnesses would need to be paid, according to recordings played in court.If this cat’s ready to come forward and say, ‘Look man we had guns … I don’t care why he says it,” Fletcher said on a jailhouse call with Knight, according to a transcript shown in court.
At one point during the trial when the jury was not present, Hardiman suggested to the judge that jurors should hear about an incident in which an undercover operative tried to get Fletcher to accept methamphetamine as payment for legal services. Hardiman claimed Fletcher responded to the offer by saying he had bought and sold far more drugs in his life than the informant was offering.
“I will run you over like a train to get what I want, OK?” Hardiman said to the woman, according to the motion Kazarian filed. In his closing arguments last week, Mrakich said Fletcher is incapable of telling the truth. He told jurors they should believe what they heard Fletcher say on the recordings, not his explanations of what he meant.
