    The only man ever brought to trial for Tupac Shakur's killing has been found guilty of first-degree murder.

    2026/09/02 | 5 mins.
    Thirty years after Tupac Shakur was gunned down on a Las Vegas street, the only man ever brought to trial for his killing has been found guilty of first-degree murder. This is a remarkably swift end to one of the most enduring mysteries in music history. A Nevada jury deliberated for less than three hours before convicting 63-year-old Duane "Keffe D" Davis of orchestrating the 1996 drive-by shooting.
