Tupac Murder Suspect Keffe D Faces New Battery Charge After Jailhouse Fight
Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, awaiting trial for Tupac Shakur's 1996 murder, was charged with battery following a physical altercation with another inmate in a Las Vegas jail.
- Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, 61, was charged with battery by prisoner after a fight with fellow inmate Rochlon Hamilton at the Clark County Detention Center in Las Vegas.
- Surveillance footage shows the two men grappling and exchanging blows before being pepper-sprayed by guards; Davis claimed he was 'standing his ground.'
- Davis remains in custody, with bail for the new battery charge set at $50,000, in addition to $750,000 for the murder charge related to Tupac Shakur's death.
- Davis is accused of orchestrating the 1996 drive-by shooting that killed Shakur and injured Marion 'Suge' Knight, a case that remained unsolved for decades.
- His murder trial is scheduled to begin on March 17, but Davis is appealing a judge's rejection of his motion to dismiss the charges due to alleged constitutional violations and lack of immunity evidence.
