The trial of Duane “Keffe D” Davis, accused in Tupac Shakur’s 1996 murder, heats up as a former Compton detective testifies Davis was the top-ranking shot caller who allegedly orchestrated the fatal shooting — not by pulling the trigger himself, but by giving the order. Prosecutors argue under Nevada law, masterminding a murder carries the same weight as committing it, fueled by a revenge motive tied to a prior altercation involving Tupac and Davis’ nephew. Ladd’s testimony claims Davis was the only one in the car who could have given the signal — a critical point for the prosecution. But the defense counters with a lack of physical evidence: no proof Davis was in Vegas that night or phone records confirming his command. They dismiss Davis’ own confessions as bravado and slam the investigation for missing key corroboration. With closing arguments looming next week, the state is racing to wrap up its case before the jury hears the final rebuttals.
