Keffe D’s Trial for Tupac’s Murder | Toronto News

The trial of Duane Davis, aka Keffe D, has begun in Las Vegas — accused of masterminding the 1996 drive-by murder of Tupac Shakur. At 63 when arrested, Davis allegedly orchestrated the deadly hit as retaliation for a gang brawl, with Tupac and Suge Knight present in Vegas for a boxing event. The killing ignited national outrage, deepened East Coast-West Coast tensions, and reshaped hip-hop’s cultural narrative. Though Davis didn’t pull the trigger, Nevada law allows conviction for planning and directing the crime. His public confessions and memoir sealed his fate — and the trial could last up to six weeks, potentially featuring testimony from Suge Knight himself.
