The man charged with the murder of Tupac Shakur, Duane ‘Keefe D’ Davis, has requested that the court dismiss his case. 62-year-old Davis is accused of being the “shot caller” in the 1996 drive-by shooting.
His attorney, Attorney Carl EG Arnold, asked the Nevada Supreme Court to dismiss the murder charges, claiming prosecutors are basing the case on statements made years ago under immunity. He claims it’s a violation of Davis’s constitutional rights.
According to FOX5 Vegas, Arnold said, “Mr Davis cooperated with law enforcement for more than a decade based on assurances that his statements wouldn’t be used against him. Those same statements are now central to the case against him. That’s a clear due process violation.”
Earlier this year, the trial was postponed to February 9th, 2026, with Judge Carli Kierny stating, “It looks like there are quite a few things that are left to be done to get this case prepared so that Mr Davis can have effective assistance of counsel.”
Death Row co-founder Suge Knight recently claimed Snoop Dogg was trying to bail Keefe D out of prison. During an interview from behind bars, he said, “Since I’ve been in here, Snoop and other people have been having people trying to bail the guy out, Keefe D, because he talking too much.
“They even had somebody talk to me and say, ‘Hey! You can help him get free.’ I said, ‘Look, I don’t have nothing to do with none of that, and I’m not leaving prison to go to nobody county jail.’”
He added, “Since I find out more details about certain things, I probably would go to the Vegas county jail if me and Keefe D were [cell mates]. We’d have a good conversation after I give him, you know, six upside his head, another six in his body and another two.”
