Episode Details

After nearly 30 years, Duane Davis, aka Keffe D, has been convicted of murdering Tupac Shakur in the 1996 Las Vegas shooting — the first time justice has been served in this legendary case. At 63, Davis now faces a potential life sentence for murder with a deadly weapon, after a jury reached verdict in under three hours. Prosecutors argued he orchestrated the attack as revenge for Tupac and Suge Knight allegedly assaulting his nephew, and that he was in the Cadillac from which the fatal shots were fired — even if he didn’t pull the trigger. His shifting stories over the years were countered by evidence including his own memoir, and his public confessions, despite inconsistencies, became key to the prosecution’s case. This historic conviction brings closure to a decades-long mystery and reaffirms that justice, however delayed, can still find its way — even for icons like Tupac.
