Tupac Murder Trial Finally Begins | Los Angeles News

The trial for Duane “Keffe D” Davis, accused of orchestrating Tupac Shakur’s 1996 murder, has begun in Las Vegas. At 63 and facing a potential life sentence, Davis denies the charges — but prosecutors believe he was the mastermind behind the drive-by shooting that killed the iconic rapper during a post-boxing-match ride with Suge Knight. The case, dormant for decades, reignited after Davis’s 2019 memoir and interviews. With a six-week trial looming and testimony possibly including Suge Knight, this courtroom drama could reshape one of hip-hop’s most enduring mysteries — as Tupac’s legacy, marked by 75 million records sold and global cultural influence, continues to resonate.
