Where it stands
The trial of the first suspect in the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur has begun, 30 years after the rapper’s death. The defendant, Keffe D, is also the prosecution’s star witness.
He has claimed that he was not in Las Vegas at the time of the murder. The trial is notable for the length of time it has taken to reach this point, and for the unusual role of the defendant as a key witness for the prosecution.
The evidence and testimony presented will be crucial in determining the outcome of the trial. The question of Keffe D’s involvement in the murder, and the reasons for the delay in bringing him to trial, remain central to the proceedings.
