What happens

Biggie & Tupac is a 2002 feature-length documentary film by Nick Broomfield about the murdered American rappers the Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur. Broomfield suggests the two murders were planned by Suge Knight, head of Death Row Records. Collusion by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is also implied. While the film remains inconclusive, when asked "Who killed Tupac?" in a BBC Radio interview dated March 7, 2005, Broomfield stated (quoting Snoop Dogg) "The big guy next to him in the car... Suge Knight." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
