Day 2 of the Tupac murder trial just delivered the first real courtroom fireworks. Nearly 30 years after Tupac Shakur was gunned down in a drive-by near the Las Vegas Strip, Duane “Keffe D” Davis is finally on trial for orchestrating the killing. On Day 2, the prosecution continued building its case with crime scene evidence, autopsy details, and testimony from people who were deep inside the Death Row and Compton worlds.
Former Las Vegas crime scene analyst Thomas Kern walked the jury through the physical evidence recovered from Tupac’s body and the scene. Medical examiner Dr. Lisa Gavin reviewed the original autopsy findings and confirmed the fatal gunshot wounds that ended the rapper’s life six days after the shooting. Then the temperature rose. James “Mob James” McDonald, a longtime Suge Knight associate and former Death Row figure, took the stand and immediately declared himself a hostile witness.
He locked eyes with Davis multiple times, told the defense attorney their questions were going to get Davis in trouble, and made it clear he had no interest in helping send the defendant to prison. Reggie Wright Jr., the former head of security for Death Row Records, also testified about the security setup that night, the heavy use of cell phones and walkie-talkies, and the aftermath of the shooting. The fight at the MGM Grand after the Mike Tyson fight.
The white Cadillac that pulled up next to Suge Knight’s BMW. The shots that changed hip-hop forever. Day 2 started connecting those dots in real time. This episode covers the key testimony, the tense exchanges, and what it all means as the state tries to prove that Keffe D ordered the hit and supplied the gun that killed Tupac.

Day One of Trial
Nearly 30 years after Tupac Shakur was gunned down on the Las Vegas Strip, the first person ever charged in his murder finally faced a jury.

On the opening day of the trial of Duane “Keffe D” Davis, prosecutors painted a clear picture of revenge. They told jurors that Davis, a former South Side Compton Crips leader, did not pull the trigger—but orchestrated the entire drive-by that killed the 25-year-old rap icon on September 7, 1996. Just hours after Tupac and members of his Death Row entourage beat Davis’s nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, in the lobby of the MGM Grand following a Mike Tyson fight, prosecutors say Davis got a .40-caliber Glock, assembled a crew in a white Cadillac, and made sure the shooters were armed and ready. 

Chief Deputy District Attorney Binu Palal told the jury the state’s case rests heavily on Davis’s own words—from a secret 2008 interview with investigators, later statements, and his 2019 memoir Compton Street Legend—in which he described being in the front passenger seat, passing the gun to the back, and watching the shots ring out. “Duane Davis did not pull the trigger. But he did plan the shooting in retaliation for the beating of his nephew,” Palal said. “And remarkably, you will learn that from Duane Davis himself.”

Defense attorney Michael Sanft hit back hard, calling his own client “full of crap” and telling jurors Davis’s long history of self-incriminating stories was just that—stories told for attention and money. “There’s no facts,” Sanft argued. The first witnesses took the stand, including a former Las Vegas Metro officer who rode in the ambulance with a still-conscious Tupac and heard the rapper refuse to name his attackers, saying something to the effect of “we’ll take care of it.” Thirty years of silence, street codes, and unanswered questions collided in a Las Vegas courtroom.

Jim Chapman breaks down everything we learned in day one of this trial, 30 years in the making.

Jim Chapman brings you the first arrest under Kentucky’s new grooming law, focusing on Graves County Middle School teacher Sadie Flores and police allegations that she had inappropriate, secretive communication with a 14-year-old student. We also review the charge under the felony portion of the law and what led to her charges. We also look back at the case involving former Anderson County High School band director Patrick Howard Brady, whose alleged conduct helped lead to the law and who later pleaded guilty in state and federal court and end with a brief update on the Nolan Wells case and the dispute over phone access and forensic review.
