The Man Charged With The Murder of Tupac Shakur, Duane “Keffe D” Davis, Had His Murder Charge Upheld Yesterday, Which Means He's Headed To Trial. But The Entire Story Smells Fishy As Hell
This case continues to get stranger and stranger.
After almost three decades of sitting pretty, Duane "Keffe D" Davis, the only suspect ever charged in the murder of Tupac Shakur, is finally going to be facing trial. And as if that wasn’t enough of a head-scratcher, Davis is acting like it’s all news to him. He’s claiming he had some sort of immunity deal with authorities that somehow never existed in any official records.
ABC News - The only suspect ever to be charged in the 1990s killing of rap icon Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas has lost a bid to have his murder case dismissed.
Clark County District Court Judge Carli Kierny said in a decision issued Tuesday that Duane “Keffe D” Davis had provided no proof of any immunity deals and that “the state of Nevada has never offered” him a deal.
Davis and his lawyer had argued that he never should have been charged with murder because of immunity agreements he says he reached years ago with federal and local authorities. Attorney Carl Arnold said the indictment against his 61-year-old client is an “egregious” violation of his constitutional rights because of a 27-year delay in prosecution.
Your boy's been all over this (along with Clem) since this news broke that an arrest had finally been made in connection with Tupac's murder. Nearly 30 years after the fact.
Including when the accused let it slip that "Diddy ALLEGEDLY offered him $1 million to take Tupac out" (and then never paid him). ALLEGEDLY.
As for this “immunity deal” he’s throwing around, it honestly would make sense if one existed, or if Davis was lead to believe it did. Because Davis has been singing like a canary for years, boasting about his role in the Tupac shooting, even putting it in his fucking tell-all memoir.
He’s had no problem spilling the details, hell, he practically made it a point to flaunt it. But the moment someone actually starts pointing fingers, he’s suddenly clutching onto some imaginary, never-seen immunity deal like it’s his ticket to freedom.
So if they had his confession in writing, and on tape (multiple recordings), over ten years ago, why did it take LAPD so long to make an official arrest?
Former LAPD Detective Greg Kading, solved this entire thing almost 20 years ago. And he was suspiciously relieved of duty during his investigation.
So again, why does none of this story make any sense and stink to high heavens?
The feds have to be in on this, right?
If you’ve been paying attention to the timeline here, it’s clear something bigger was going on.
I’ve got a theory: Maybe, just maybe, the investigation into Tupac’s murder led federal authorities down a much darker road- straight to none other than Sean “P. Diddy” Combs. Picture this- the feds come to Diddy and have him dead to rights. So they present him with a choice: cooperate, spill the beans, and skate by with a sweet deal, or face the music for something far worse.
And what did Diddy do? (Again, my theory here) He went full throttle into the public eye, showing off with that "untouchable" attitude, confident the feds couldn’t touch him. Makes you wonder if Keefe D was one of the goons keeping the heat off the real players.
I mean, think about it. For all these years, Davis and his pals got to walk free, acting like they were part of some untouchable mafia. The kind of behavior where you brag about murder like it’s no big deal.
I mean for crying out loud Puffy was flexing, sending a message to those who knew, flaunting Tupac's killer's car in his young protege's music video. Look at this, these two were boys.
But now that the government realizes it’s been playing a longer game, they finally come back around to slap the cuffs on the guy who’s been the most vocal.
What changed? Could it be they finally decided to tie up the loose ends and pin down the real puppet masters behind the curtain?
And another thing that's way too fishy: A 27-year delay in prosecution? That’s just…WILD.
We’ve got a man who’s been essentially bragging about the murder for almost three decades, and only now, with the whole world watching and the case turning cold, they suddenly want to bring charges? I think it’s because the investigation was always meant to lead somewhere else- the deeper, dirtier connections that everyone, from the feds to Diddy, didn’t want to get dragged into the light.
They leveraged what they had against Combs for 30 years, and milked it for every last drop.
In the end, it’s suspicious as all hell.
Keefe D’s case has all the hallmarks of a cover-up gone wrong, and if you think this is just about bringing justice to Tupac, think again.
The bigger picture involves some people who’ve been skimming by with immunity while the whole world has been left in the dark.
The fact that it’s taken this long to get a man to trial, after all the grandstanding and public boasting, makes you wonder just how many other deals were made behind closed doors. And why, after all this time, it was finally time to charge him.
I will be shocked if Keefe D actually lives long enough in the clink to make it to trial.
Don’t expect the truth to be as clean as the prosecutors are making it out to be. There’s a lot more going on here than they’re letting on.
