Summary

  • Closing arguments began Monday in the murder trial of Duane "Keffe D" Davis, the only person ever criminally charged in connection with the 1996 killing of rap icon Tupac Shakur. The proceedings are taking place at the Regional Justice Center in Las Vegas.
  • Prosecutors allege Davis orchestrated the drive-by shooting that killed Shakur near the Las Vegas Strip on September 7, 1996, in retaliation for an earlier casino lobby brawl involving his nephew.
  • Davis, 63, faces one count of first-degree murder with a deadly weapon with gang enhancements and could face life in prison if convicted. He is not accused of firing the fatal shots himself and did not testify in his own defense.
  • Jurors are expected to begin deliberations once closing arguments conclude.
