As the drama surrounding the murder of 2Pac continues to unfold, we at hiphopraisedmetheblog.com want to bring you the latest developments regarding Duane “Keefe D” Davis, the suspect implicated in this high-profile case. Recently, Keefe D found himself in hot water once again after a violent altercation with another inmate at the Clark County Detention Center in Las Vegas.
Details of the Incident
Reports indicate that the scuffle, described by authorities as “mutual combat by grappling and throwing closed fist strikes,” was captured on surveillance footage before guards intervened, deploying pepper spray to break up the fight. Following this incident, Keefe D, now 61 years old, was charged with battery. In a statement to TMZ, he maintains that he was merely “standing his ground” during the confrontation.
This recent incident adds to the mounting pressures surrounding Keefe D, who has been in custody since September 2023 after being charged with orchestrating the murder of 2Pac—an arrest that marked a significant development in a case that has haunted the hip hop community for nearly three decades.
The Murder Charge and Ongoing Trial
Keefe D is scheduled to remain incarcerated until his trial begins in May 2025. He has pleaded not guilty to the charge of murder with the use of a deadly weapon. In an attempt to dismiss the murder charge, Keefe D claimed to have reached an immunity deal with law enforcement back in 2008, asserting that his admissions regarding the murder should be protected under a proffer agreement. However, prosecutors have denied the existence of such an agreement, and the judge ruled in favor of the prosecution.
This ongoing legal battle has been further complicated by Keefe D’s past statements. He has openly discussed his involvement in the murder of 2Pac in various interviews and in his 2019 book, “Compton Street Legend.” His defense team argues that these statements were made for entertainment purposes, not as confessions, and that they should not be admissible in court. They contend that there is no concrete evidence tying him to the crime.
