Suge Knight Details Tupac Shakur’s Final Hours and Ashes Ritual

From prison, Suge Knight said Afeni Shakur halted resuscitation to let Tupac die, securing an immediate cremation before a secret ritual saw close friends smoke his ashes.

Overview

  • Suge Knight spoke exclusively to People magazine from California’s Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility, offering new insights into Tupac’s last days and what followed his death.
  • He claimed that after multiple surgeries and the removal of a lung, Tupac pleaded with his mother to let him die rather than be revived and face prison.
  • Knight alleged that Afeni Shakur instructed doctors not to resuscitate her son and pushed for him to be cremated the same night, a process he said he funded with $1 million in cash.
  • That night, a close circle of Tupac’s friends and family gathered privately, passed around his ashes and rolled them into a blunt as a symbolic tribute.
  • These revelations arrive alongside the revived investigation that led to Duane “Keffe D” Davis’s 2023 arrest, with his trial set for February 2026.
