BREAKING: Duane "Keffe D" Davis has been found guilty of first-degree murder with use of a deadly weapon in connection with the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur, nearly 30 years after the rapper was fatally shot in Las Vegas.
Jurors deliberated for about 90 minutes before reaching the verdict.
Davis now faces a potential life sentence, with sentencing to be determined on Oct. 13.
Keffe D was arrested on Sept. 29, 2023, following a raid on his home that same year. Police charged him with murder with use of a deadly weapon with the intent to promote, further or assist a criminal street gang.
He was accused of obtaining the weapon that was used in Tupac's murder and was present during the Las Vegas shooting. The other three men believed to be present during the shooting have all died, including the alleged gunman, Keffe D's nephew Orlando Anderson, who was killed in 1998.
Police said the shooting was in retaliation for Anderson being jumped by Tupac and members of Death Row Records following a Mike Tyson fight on Sept. 7, 1996.
Opening statements in the trial kicked off on Aug. 17. Excerpts of Keffe D's 2019 book Compton Street Legend were referred to in the trial. The book includes Keffe discussing the events surrounding the 1996 shooting.

I’ve never been to the St. Louis Gateway Arch, and I honestly never really thought about how people even get to the top of it.
This video made me realize what an engineering marvel that elevator actually is. Because the arch is curved, they couldn’t use a normal elevator, so they came up with these clever little capsules that rotate and tilt as they go up. It looks like you're riding in a tiny space pod.
Even more interesting? The whole system was designed by a guy who didn’t even have an engineering degree. I also had no idea there was a museum inside. This elevator might honestly be as impressive as the arch itself.
Have you ever been up inside the Gateway Arch?
