Tupac: All you need to know

Who is Duane 鈥淜effe D鈥 Davis and why is he on trial for Tupac Shakur鈥檚 murder? Anoushka and Shaun explain the charges, evidence, and possible witnesses

Nearly 30 years after Tupac Shakur was fatally shot on the Las Vegas Strip, Nevada prosecutors are preparing for the trial of the only person ever charged in connection with the rapper鈥檚 death.

Duane 鈥淜effe D鈥 Davis has pleaded not guilty to murder and denies the allegations against him.

But Keffe D is not accused of firing the fatal shots. So how can prosecutors seek to convict him of murder? And why was he arrested in 2023, decades after investigators first suspected he was in the car?

Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty and Fame under Fire鈥檚 resident trial attorney Shaun Kent break down everything you need to know before the trial. Could Suge Knight testify? Could Sean 鈥淒iddy鈥 Combs be drawn into the case?

For Fame Under Fire: The Tupac Murder Trial Anoushka will be in the Las Vegas courtoom every day to bring you updates. Make sure you lock in so you don鈥檛 miss a thing.
