I’m pretty sure it’s a different Terry Carter; I checked the IMDB and he’s still alive.
In any event, Suge Knight seems to have something of a negative Midas Touch in that people around him end up dead with disturbing regularity. Someone should print him up a “Surgeon General’s Warning” T-Shirt that says “The Surgeon General has determined that hanging out with me is likely to get you dead.”
Fun fact about Terry Carter as per the IMDB: “He was founder and president of Meta/4 Productions, Inc., a California company he formed in 1975, through which he produced and/or directed more than 100 documentary films and television shorts for industry and the federal government.”

The actor was born in 1928.
The victim died at 55.
The name was the same and I guess tmz googled it.
A Facebook group on New eng Broadcasting History showed an ad for WBZ TV Boston from ‘67 with their employee Terry Carter. The one who just died would been about 7 at that time...
