Keffe D's 2008 Confession to Nephew's Role in Tupac's Killing Central to Las Vegas Trial

Duane 'Keffe D' Davis is on trial in Las Vegas for orchestrating the 1996 drive-by shooting that killed rapper Tupac Shakur. Prosecutors are relying on a 2008 recorded interview where Davis admitted his nephew, Orlando 'Baby Lane' Anderson, fired the fatal shots. Davis, 63, pleaded not guilty, arguing he fabricated the story to gain leverage against drug charges. The trial hinges on whether Davis's later public statements and memoir nullified the confidentiality of that 2008 interview.

Tupac Shakur Murder Trial Opens in Las Vegas, 30 Years After 1996 Drive-by

Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, 63, began his murder trial in Las Vegas on August 17, 2026, nearly 30 years after the 1996 drive-by shooting that killed rapper Tupac Shakur. Prosecutors allege Davis orchestrated the attack from a white Cadillac, supplying a .40-caliber Glock to other occupants, though he is not accused of firing the weapon. The case relies heavily on Davis's 2019 memoir and prior interviews, which the defense argues are fictionalized. Suge Knight, a surviving witness, is expected to testify but has indicated he will not cooperate.
