The scheduled murder trial of Duane “Keffe D” Davis, the suspect charged in the 1996 death of Tupac Shakur, in Nevada has been postponed. The decision was announced on Tuesday by Clark County District Court Judge Carli Kierny, who cited recent defense developments and the necessity of ensuring a fair trial. Initially slated for next month, the prosecution is now rescheduled for February 9, 2026.
“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,” Judge Kierny explained. The court has also mandated a status hearing to take place over the coming summer, requiring both prosecution and defense teams to attend.
This marks a significant extension in the long-running case concerning the 1992 murder of Tupac Shakur, whose death has been a subject of intrigue and speculation for decades. Davis, a former gang leader, remains the only individual to face charges in connection to the deadly drive-by shooting of the rapper, which also injured Marion “Suge” Knight.
Shakur and Davis’s nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, had been involved in a melee in a Las Vegas casino before the shooting.
