Tupac Shakur homicide case

Duane “Keefe D” Davis attempted to receive bail ahead of his trial, but the state of Nevada believed he was too dangerous. Earlier this year, Keefe D was arrested for allegedly killing Tupac Shakur.

Keefe D and his team attempted to secure a release on his recognizance until the June trial. Once denied, the legal team attempted to get a bail no higher than $100K.

According to TMZ, prosecutors shunned the ask, citing he is a high-ranking member of the South Side Compton Crips and pointed to his confessions for involvement in the murder for years. He also is stated to have made threats to witnesses while behind bars.

The trial for Duane “Keefe D” Davis in the murder of Tupac Shakur will begin in Nevada on June 3. Keefe D will also be facing a charge for intent to assist a criminal gang.

Keefe D made a court appearance on Tuesday (Nov. 6), speaking with court-appointed attorneys and entering a plea of not guilty.

According to the AP, Keefe’s attorneys, Charles Cano and Robert Arroyo, will file documents to secure bail before trial.

Suge Knight says he will not take the stand against Duane “Keefe” Davis after the latter was arrested and charged with the murder of Tupac Shakur.

According to TMZ, Knight stated he was surprised but would not testify.

“I’m not gonna get on the stand and testify on somebody,” Knight said. “For what? I wouldn’t go, I wouldn’t testify. None of that shit.”

“There’s been many people who did not believe that the murder of Tupac Shakur was important to this police department,” said Las Vegas Sheriff Kevin McMahill. “I am here to tell you that that was simply not the case.”

Here’s the indictment for Duane “Keffe D” Davis in Tupac’s murder, via Clark County DA.

Suge Knight is not accepting any bad words to be said about Oprah Winfrey. The incarcerated mogul made the reveal on one of the latest episodes of his Breakbeat-backed podcast, Collect Call With Suge Knight.

“I remember back in the day doing time, when people said something bad about Oprah Winfrey. I got in their ass,” Knight said. “You talking about this Black woman. I fried their shit up, slapped the shit out them. ‘Don’t say nothing about this Black sister.’”

You can hear the full episode below.

In the opening episode of his new podcast, Collect Call With Suge Knight, the former Death Row Records mogul saluted the women in the music industry.

“The females got that shit on lock. When you look at the women, they came such a long way and they’re really strong. They’re not in the shadows of a man, they’re leading the way. I think Cardi B is incredible. That’s probably one of the biggest stars in the industry and a great business woman that leads the way.”

Knight would also salute Cardi B saying, “there’s nothing she can’t do and be successful with it” and also celebrated Doja Cat, Summer Walker, Lizzo, and SZA.

Napoleon of the Outlawz has an opinion on the arrest of Duane “Keffe D” Davis for the murder of Tupac Shakur. According to Napoleon, Tupac himself wouldn’t want Napoleon to go prison.

Speaking on The Art of Dialogue, Napoloeon feels Keffe D got himself in trouble but Pac would want him free.

“If Pac survived the shooting, Pac himself wouldn’t want Keffe D to go to jail,” said Napoleon. “A lot of people might not understand, but me knowing Pac, Pac ain’t gonna get no law involved because Pac would understand he did something in the streets would come back with street stuff.”

On Friday (Sept. 29) Las Vegas police arrested Duane “Keffe D” Davis in connection to the 1996 drive-by murder that led to Tupac Shakur’s death. In the past, Keffe D stated he was in the car that carried out the drive-by shooting in Las Vegas.

Appearing on various forms of media, Keffe D stated his nephew Anderson was one of the men in the back of the Cadillac where the shots were fired. Earlier in the night, Anderson and Tupac were involved in a brawl. Anderson was killed in a separate shooting in Compton but denied involvement in the shooting of Tupac.

In July, Las Vegas Metro Police issued a search warrant on the home of Paula Clemons, the wife of Keefe D, revealing that bullets found at the residence could be connected to Tupac’s murder.

LVMPD stated in a warrant that several .40 caliber bullets were retrieved from the home of the 60-year-old Duane Keith Davis, aka Keefe D, and forensics experts would test the bullets to see if they are linked to the shooting death of Tupac Shakur. A Vegas police source says that the bullets will be tested with a “definite consideration on whether they have any link to the bullets found in Tupac’s body.” Those results have not yet been made public

Homicide detectives in Las Vegas have kept the forensic evidence from the Shakur murder, including bullets and clothing, in secure storage for 26 years, with full laboratory analysis of shells, bullets, and gunpowder from the murder scene.

According to the police source, “Microfibers or residues from the weapon or the bullet could prove to be a link. There is no information yet on the history of the bullets, how old they are or their significance. And it will take some time to assess how the bullets play a role in this case. The homicide detectives leading the case are keeping everything as secretive as possible with only the district attorney’s office learning about developments. No pun intended, it is a long shot that the bullets will be the ones from 1996.”

The source added, “This search warrant was pushed because investigators feel they can assemble enough information that could lead to an arrest or indictment. Tupac’s murder remains open, so the onus remains on the police to try to attempt to close the case.”

The .40 Glock that was used in the Tupac murder was never recovered. However, Keefe D has openly admitted on several occasions that he handed the gun to his nephew Orlando Anderson that he used to shoot Tupac on September 7, 1996.

Suge Knight has been making the media rounds after the arrest of Keefe D for his role in the murder of Tupac Shakur. According to lead detective Greg Kading, who investigated the murder of The Notorious B.I.G., Keefe D could have long been arrested but Knight wouldn’t assist.

“If there’s anybody in the world to blame for this taking 27 years to solve, it’s Suge Knight,” Kading told Rolling Stone. “He knew the moment it happened who did it.

“And all Suge had to do when Las Vegas asked him to come in and sit down for an interview, all he had to do was say, ‘They pulled up alongside, I looked right across the car, I saw Keefe D in the front seat.’ That’s all he had to say: ‘I saw Keefe D.’ That alone, that witness statement would’ve changed everything.”

Kading stated Knight operated under the belief that his representation was more valuable than 2Pac’s life.

Suge Knight says he will not take the stand against Duane “Keffe D” Davis after the latter was arrested and charged with the murder of Tupac Shakur.

According to TMZ, Knight stated he was surprised but would not testify.

“I’m not gonna get on the stand and testify on somebody,” Knight said. “For what? I wouldn’t go, I wouldn’t testify. None of that shit.”

Officer Chris Carroll, one of the first responders to the scene where Pac was shot in 1996, sat with The Art of Dialogue and delivered more information about Keefe’s connection.

After reiterating that Keefe D has long said he had a role in the murder, Carroll revealed he may also have been selling items connected to the crime.

“I’ve heard rumors that he even had sold some items that he told people were there that night,” Carroll said. “Whether that’s BS or not, I don’t know, but to think that not only is he admitting to being part of a murder but now he’s going to profit from the whole deal?”
