The decades-long mystery surrounding the murder of Tupac Shakur was seemingly on the verge of resolution with the 2023 arrest of reputed Southside Crip Duane “Keefe D” Davis. However, the trial is now facing a significant delay due to newly presented evidence that could alter the case’s trajectory.

The trial for Duane “Keffe D” Davis, who's alleged involvement in the murder of rap icon Tupac led to his 2023 arrest, has been delayed almost a year.

Duane "Keffe D" Davis is now set to stand trial in February 2026, nearly 30 years after the famed rapper was shot and killed in Las Vegas.

Duane “Keefe D” Davis’ long-awaited murder trial for his alleged role in the 1996 shooting death of rapper Tupac Shakur has been postponed until 2026. Originally scheduled for March 2025, the delay came after Davis’ attorney filed a motion on Feb. 14, requesting more time to prepare.

Attorneys for Duane “Keffe D” Davis filed a motion Friday in a Nevada court, stating that Davis’ defense has identified witnesses who can testify that he was not present at the shooting, despite his alleged self-implication in his memoir, “Compton Street Legend,” KSNV reported.

The trial for Tupac Shakur murder suspect Duane "Keefe D" Davis has reportedly been pushed back to 2026.

The trial for the shooting death of Tupac Shakur has been pushed back by almost a year following a request from the defence team.

Attorneys for the man suspected of killing rap icon Tupac Shakur want to delay next month’s trial, saying more time is needed for investigative work to ensure that Duane “Keffe D” Davis gets a fair trial.

Keefe D will still stand trial in April of this year, though, based on a separate incident which occurred last year while he was incarcerated.
