The trial of Duane “Keffe D” Davis, accused of murdering Tupac Shakur in a 1996 drive-by shooting in Las Vegas, began with testimony alleging the crime was motivated by revenge. Prosecutors claim Davis orchestrated the shooting, fueled by a prior altercation between his nephew and Shakur. Witnesses stated Davis had been seeking retribution for the beating his nephew suffered at the hands of Shakur and his entourage. The prosecution presented evidence suggesting Davis acquired the gun used in the shooting and directed others to carry it out. Davis has publicly discussed his involvement for years, including in a memoir, but now faces charges as authorities believe they have sufficient evidence for a conviction. The trial is expected to feature further testimony detailing the events leading up to and following Shakur’s death, and Davis has pleaded not guilty.
