A judge has set a trial date for Duane “Keffe D” Davis to face murder charges alleging he killed renowned rapper Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas more than 20 years ago.
First reported by the Associated Press, Judge Carli Kierney set the trial date for June 3, 2024, in Nevada. Davis has pleaded not guilty and the former gang member remains in detention for now. Davis claims he has cancer and his attorneys have said they will attempt to have him freed before proceedings get underway next summer.
