Keffe D Faces Murder Trial for Tupac Shooting | Lubbock News

Duane Davis, aka Keffe D, is on trial in Las Vegas for his alleged role in the 1996 drive-by shooting that killed Tupac Shakur—charges that hinge on his claimed involvement in orchestrating the hit and supplying the weapon. Prosecutors rely heavily on his 2019 memoir, where he admits being in the car during the attack, though no gun was found in Tupac’s vehicle. Davis’s defense argues the shooting was retaliation after Tupac’s crew allegedly assaulted his nephew, Orlando Anderson, who died in 1998. Key witnesses include Suge Knight, Joe Lombardo, and Reggie Wright Jr., while Sean “Diddy” Combs—whom Davis blamed for wanting Tupac dead—is excluded from the trial due to his current prison sentence. This high-stakes case promises a raw look into the violent rivalries that defined hip-hop’s golden era. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
