A judge has denied bail to Duane "Keffe D" Davis, the man who stands accused of killing Tupac Shakur in 1996, citing suspicions of a cover-up related to his bond sources. Clark District Court Judge Carli Kierny questioned the legitimacy of financial documents supplied by Davis' attorney, particularly those from music executive Cash "Wack 100" Jones, who had offered to cover Davis' $750,000 bail. "I have a sense that things are trying to be covered up," Kierny commented, pointing out that two identical letters supposedly from the company Jones said wired him the money have different signatures. Kierny also questioned whether the men hoped to profit by selling Davis' life story.
Davis, who is charged with first-degree murder, has been in custody since his arrest in September 2023. The case has garnered significant attention, as Davis is the only individual ever charged in connection with the high-profile murder. Prosecutors suggest the hip-hop star's death came as part of a feud between East Coast Bloods and West Coast Crips gang factions vying for dominance in the "gangsta rap" scene. Davis' trial was on Tuesday postponed from November 4 to March 17. (This story was generated by Newser's AI chatbot. Source: the AP)
