Death Row Records co-founder and former rap mogul Marion "Suge" Knight isn't dead, contrary to certain reports - celebrity death hoaxes - claiming that he has already passed away.

According to USA Today, Knight was rushed to a medical facility on Monday morning after he admitted to Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James Brandlin that he is going blind.

Apart from nearly losing his eyesight, Suge is also suffering from a number of health complications.

It was actually the third time already that the former rap mogul was taken to a hospital from a courthouse since he was officially charged with murder in February.

Last month, he was transported to a health facility over a panic attack; a few weeks after that he was again rushed to a hospital for the injuries he got out of a shooting incident last summer, TMZ has learned.

Knight also admitted that he has since fired his attorneys since he was not at all receiving sufficient medical treatment while in custody for the murder case.

Based on his statement to the judge, Suge claimed that one of his eyes is already blind while the other one only has 15% vision.

Knight also gushed to Brandlin that since he was taken into custody, he has lost a lot of weight. 

"Since I have been here," he said, "I've lost about 30 pounds."

Brandlin ruled that all of Suge Knight's future hearings would be in downtown L.A. to ease the stress on the staff and on his transportation. After which the 49-year-old was transported to the infirmary, reports Los Angeles Times.
