ATRON:
He was probably
at his happiest place. MAN:
That was the time of his life. And then I get a call
that there's a hot new artist-friendly label
named Interscope that want to make a deal
with us. He was over-the-moon excited. But I made him open
a bank account. The police saw him
walking across the street to go get some money
out of the bank. REPORTER:
Shakur admitted jaywalking in downtown Oakland,
October 17th, and also arguing
with the officers,
even using profanity. But he said his treatment
didn't fit the crime. I think they used a little bit
too much force, because, I mean, he was already handcuffed,
and they were still hitting him
