Thirty years after the September 7, 1996 killing of rapper Tupac Shakur, a trial has finally opened in Las Vegas. The proceedings involve a former gang leader facing charges over the decades-old murder, which stands as one of America's most high-profile unresolved homicide cases.
The trial is expected to last approximately a month. However, despite the long-awaited legal proceedings beginning, the trial will likely not clarify who actually fired the fatal shots on the night Shakur was in Sin City to attend a Mike Tyson boxing match.
