Ex-gang leader sentenced to 40 years to life in prison for Tupac Shakur murder

Duane 'Keffe D' Davis has been sentenced to 40 years to life in prison for his role in the murder of Tupac Shakur. Davis, a former gang leader, was convicted of leading the drive-by shooting that resulted in the rapper's death. The incident was identified as a direct consequence of ongoing hostilities between two Los Angeles street gangs.

For nearly three decades, the killing of Shakur remained one of the most notorious cold cases in the United States. The legal resolution follows Davis's 2023 arrest, which finally brought closure to a decades-long investigation into the high-profile crime.
