Keffe D’s Trial: Who Pulled the Trigger? | Columbia News

The trial of Duane Davis, aka Keffe D, the only surviving person present when Tupac Shakur was shot in 1996, is entering its closing arguments. Prosecutors argue Davis was the mastermind behind the murder, planning it as revenge for an assault on his nephew — even if he didn’t pull the trigger. Their case rests heavily on Davis’s own confessions, which have evolved over time. The defense counters that these statements were just money-grabbing boasts, with no solid evidence like phone records tying him directly to the crime. With decades-old evidence and shifting testimonies, the jury must now decide whether Davis, now 63, is guilty under Nevada’s gang-related murder laws — a verdict that could finally close one of hip-hop’s most enduring mysteries.
