The Keefe D Tupac murder trial is underway and already several revelations have come to surface, including from former LAPD detective Daryn Dupree.
The detective claims Davis and his nephew Orlando Anderson killed Pac in retaliation for Pac and his crew beating up Anderson during a confrontation in Las Vegas. Anderson reportedly shot Pac, but Davis put the gun in his hand and may have had more motive than just getting his lick back. The detective states that a former Pimp and bagman Zip Martin, was supposed to give Keefe D money for the act, and it reportedly came from a man who would have reason to want Pac dead.
“Sean Puffy Combs was supposed to have given money to Zip Martin to give to Mr. Davis [Keefe D] for payment of the Tupac murder. Fast forward and Davis [told us] he could rekindle that relationship with Martin and get him to talk about the money that was given from Puffy to Martin that never got to Davis. He said the conversation happened at Greenblatt’s Deli in Los Angeles. The detective also states that he believes Keefe D put the gun in Anderson’s hand because he knew if his nephew killed Tupac he would become a legend in the neighborhood.”
Duane "Keefe D" Davis told police in 2008 about his involvement in Tupac Shakur's shooting and said Sean "Puffy" Combs offered to pay for the murders of Shakur and Death Row Records founder Marion "Suge" Knight, according to testimony from a retired Los Angeles police detective.… pic.twitter.com/lykvig6ICR

Keefe D Trial Continues
Duane “Keefe D” Davis says he did not kill Tupac Shakur or The Notorious B.I.G., but claims he knows who was responsible for both murders.
Davis also reportedly rejected a plea deal carrying a sentence of between 10 and 25 years in connection with Tupac’s 1996 death. Prosecutors accuse him of orchestrating the September 7, 1996, drive-by shooting near the Las Vegas Strip.
The trial began this week, has picked out a jury and looks to go for at the very least one month before a verdict is reached.
