Blankenship entered a plea Wednesday to a count of conspiracy to obstruct justice.<\/p>\n
Prosecutors say Blankenship and Knight\u2019s girlfriend, Toi-Lin Kelly, arranged to sell surveillance video shot outside Compton restaurant Tam\u2019s Burgers, which captured Knight running over two men, Cle \u201cBone\u201d Sloan and Terry Carter, with his truck back in 2015. Carter later died from his injuries.<\/p>\n
TMZ<\/em> bought the video for $55,000 after a judge in Knight\u2019s murder case had barred its public release, reports the AP.<\/em><\/p>\nBlankenship was reportedly sentenced to five years of probation and ordered to pay $55,000 in restitution to Tam’s Burgers. Kelly, who pleaded no contest to conspiracy in 2017, received probation and community service.<\/p>\n
