Keffe D Gets 40 Years to Life for Orchestrating Tupac Shakur’s Murder

Duane “Keffe D” Davis was sentenced on Tuesday (Oct. 13) to 40 years to life for orchestrating the 1996 murder of rap icon Tupac Shakur. The 63-year-old defendant was convicted in August of first-degree murder with the use of a deadly weapon. He is the only person ever charged in the murder of Shakur, whose popularity was peaking at age 25. Nevada District Court Judge Carli Kierny delivered the sentence following a scathing admonition of Davis from the bench.
