Episode Details

The trial of Duane Davis, aka Keffe D, has begun in Las Vegas — accused of orchestrating the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur. At 63, Davis, who’s been locked up since last year and not guilty, faces a murder charge tied to gang promotion. The case, simmering for nearly 30 years, centers on a fatal drive-by shooting during a tense era of hip-hop rivalry. Prosecutors say Davis acted out revenge after Tupac allegedly assaulted his nephew; defense counters with weak evidence and unreliable witnesses, arguing Davis was clean-cut before health issues forced him out of work. His memoir and police interview are being challenged as fiction or confidential. Tupac’s stepbrother hopes for justice but warns the trial will reopen old wounds.
