Keffe D on Trial for Tupac’s Murder | Washington DC News

Jury selection begins for the long-awaited trial of Duane “Keffe D” Davis, accused of masterminding the 1996 drive-by shooting that killed Tupac Shakur. At 63, Davis faces murder charges with a deadly weapon and insists he’s innocent. Prosecutors say he was in the Cadillac that fired the fatal shots — one of the few surviving witnesses from that night — and orchestrated the attack. The trial, set to last up to six weeks, could see testimony from Marion “Suge” Knight, currently serving a 28-year sentence. Davis’ defense is fighting to exclude his 2008 police interview and his 2019 memoir, claiming they’re unreliable or confidential. Tupac, a global icon who sold over 75 million records, died near the Vegas Strip after a boxing match — a tragedy that still reverberates through hip-hop history.
