It's been just over a year since Suge Knight was arrested for murder after running over a man with his car outside a Compton burger restaurant. Things aren't going so well for the 50-year-old former CEO of Death Row Records. After firing his lawyer for a fifth time last week, Knight has lost his phone, mail, & visitor privileges.

The AP reports that Los Angeles Superior Court Judge William C. Ryan issued an order last Friday to Knight's access to the outside world, aside from visits and calls from his attorneys.

The reasons for the order have have not been made public. It was issued at the request of the sheriff's detective, which previously asked Judge Ronald Coen to limit Knight's non-attorney visits in March 2015. Since then, Coen has steadily approved visits from "[Knight's] parents, seven of his children, two spiritual advisers, 11 attorneys, a bail bond agent and any notary public." 

Knight is being held on $10 million bail. His next court date is scheduled for February 22.
