Tupac: Picking the Jury

How do you find 12 impartial jurors for the Tupac murder trial? Anoushka and Shaun unpack bias, publicity and the high-stakes process of jury selection.

Jury selection begins in the Tupac Shakur murder trial.

Nearly 30 years after Tupac was fatally shot in Las Vegas, Duane 鈥淜effe D鈥� Davis is the only person ever charged in connection with his death. Davis has entered a not guilty plea and denies all charges.

Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty is joined by Fame Under Fire鈥檚 resident trial attorney Shaun Kent to explain how lawyers try to find 12 fair and impartial people for one of America鈥檚 most high-profile cold cases.

Anoushka will be in Las Vegas as the trial gets underway, bringing daily updates from court, the testimony, arguments, key moments and legal analysis.
