Jury convicts Duane ‘Keffe D’ Davis of first-degree murder in orchestrating killing of Tupac Shakur
A jury found Duane “Keffe D” Davis guilty of orchestrating the killing of rapper Tupac Shakur, marking the first conviction in a case that has gripped hip-hop fans for decades.
The 63-year-old Davis was convicted Monday of murder with the use of a deadly weapon and could be sentenced to life in prison. The jury deliberated for 3 hours after a weekslong trial in Las Vegas.
After the verdict was read, Davis’ son sat in the courtroom covering his face with one hand.
Sekyiwa “Set” Shakur, Tupac’s sister, cried and reached back to a person behind her.
Davis pleaded not guilty to murder with a deadly weapon with the intent to promote, further or assist a criminal gang in the rapper’s death.
