Suge Knight has claimed that Diddy will receive a presidential pardon from Donald Trump if he is found guilty in his sex trafficking trial.
The currently incarcerated Death Row Records co-founder was speaking to NewsNation about his longtime enemy’s current trial.
During the interview, Suge said: “I think he’s got some favors with the government. I think they’re gonna show him a little leeway. It might not seem like it when it’s all said and done, but I don’t think he has nothing to worry about, and I don’t think he’s worried because he’s gonna be federal, and if he gets convicted, Trump’s gonna pardon him.”
The controversial rap mogul added: “I still feel that Puffy is going to be alright and have a fair shot at it. He’s not a not a dummy. And I’m quite sure somebody going to talk to those jurors and convince one or two of them that’s all you need, is one.”

She claimed: “We were having a freak-off in one of [Diddy’s] homes in LA and he said Suge was at Mel’s Diner, and we packed up and drove down there.”
Cassie added: “I was screaming and crying, ‘Please don’t do anything stupid.’ I didn’t know what they were going to do. It’s like I wasn’t even there.”

Suge Knight, who himself is currently incarcerated, has previously expressed sympathy for his one time nemesis over his current legal predicament.
He said to TMZ: “My reaction was actually different because the first thing that came to my mind was: he has his sons, he has his daughters. My reaction was first about the kids. The thing is, I feel it’s a bad day for Hip Hop. It’s a bad day for the culture because it makes us all look bad.”
