He points the finger at somebody that we have interviewed, a guy named Reggie Wright Jr., who is a former Compton police officer who ultimately had worked for Suge Knight doing some security.

Yeah, I was going to say, what's next then for Kifidi legally? So there's a bunch of different things in the legal system that he's facing. First off, Kifidi was involved in a jailhouse fight and he has since been charged with battery. Oftentimes, a jailhouse fight really won't go to trial. They plead it out. It's kind of secondary.

Exactly, because just the part of the defense so far has been that even though Keefy might have had drug and other kinds of crimes in his history as a young man, that as an older man, he's no longer a threat to the community. So what prosecutors want to do is they want to show that a guy who's over 60 and has survived cancer, that he's still a threat because he's still violent. So that's the goal.

But the judge, acknowledging the vast amount of evidence, the fact that we're talking about a lot of old files, older people, some complexities, obviously, A lot of people that are connected to the case are no longer alive.

KVD has tried to get out of jail, to get bailed out and to await trial. from home. The judge has been reluctant to go along with that. She's taken issue with the bail packages, quote unquote.
