Tupac's Former Bodyguard Frank Alexander Is Dead

On the night of the Las Vegas attack, he was the only security man with Tupac and Suge Knight. Frank Alexander had worked as a bodyguard for Tupac in 1996. On April 30, 2013, AllHipHop reported his death. According to the report, he was found dead in California; details initially remained unclear. AllHipHop pointed to unofficial indications about the cause of death, which are not repeated here because they were unconfirmed.

Allegations Against Knight and an Unusual Evening

Alexander had publicly said that he believed Knight was involved in Tupac’s death. In a 2007 interview with AllHipHop, he spoke about his documentary Tupac Assassination. There, he did not implicate Knight, but described the evening as unusual: normally, the head of security would have been there, not just him. That is Alexander’s view, not a finding established in court. For the status of the investigation: Investigation.
