So what if Suge Knight managed to find someone with a high viral load, collect their blood and stick Eazy with a needle?
“Needle sticks are an extremely difficult way to get HIV,” Goforth said. “They’ve got good data because of health-care workers like myself being stuck by needles by people that are known to be HIV-positive. So a needle stick itself, if the blood is known to be HIV-positive, it’s about a third of a percent chance of getting HIV from a needle stick. But that’s really different from sharing injection drug needles where you’re actually injecting a decent volume of the other person’s blood into you. That’s different than a stick.”
So did Suge Knight kill Eazy-E via HIV injection? It’s highly unlikely given the timeline of their studio confrontation and the visible progression Eazy’s illness. It’s far more likely that Knight was happy to insinuate that he had something to do with Eazy’s death because it would bolster his image as the Voldemort of West Coast rap.
