Tupac Murder Suspect Duane 'Keffe D' Davis Skips Court Hearing

Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, the sole suspect in the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur, missed recent court hearings regarding his trial readiness and a separate case involving a jail altercation. Davis, who has been in custody since his arrest in September 2023, pleaded not guilty to the murder charges, with his defense attorney arguing for dismissal based on claimed immunity agreements that the court has deemed unproven. The trial readiness hearing has been rescheduled to February 18, with the trial set to commence in March. Additionally, Davis faces new charges of battery stemming from a fight at the Clark County Detention Center, where his legal team contends he acted in self-defense. Prosecutors maintain they possess substantial evidence against him, including admissions made in a memoir regarding his involvement in Shakur's death. Davis's attorney has expressed concern over his absence from the hearings, suggesting he would prefer to be present for these critical proceedings.
