Tupac Shakur Murder Suspect Pleads Not Guilty, Attorney Withdraws

Duane Keith Davis, also known as Keffe D, has pleaded not guilty to a murder charge in the killing of rapper Tupac Shakur. Davis, who has openly discussed his involvement in the gang-orchestrated shooting, entered his plea during his arraignment. The case, which had been dormant for years, was thrust back into the public eye with Davis's indictment. The investigation into Shakur's murder had stalled due to a lack of cooperation from witnesses, but Davis's own words about his involvement reignited the case. He is now represented by the public defender's office but hopes to retain a high-profile defense lawyer.

Lawyer Drops Client Charged in Tupac Shakur Murder Case

Duane Keith "Keffe D" Davis, the former gang leader charged with killing Tupac Shakur in 1996, has lost his bid to be represented by the lawyer who previously spoke about his defense. Davis is due for arraignment in Nevada, and the judge may order a financial accounting of his assets to determine if he can afford a lawyer or if he should be declared indigent. The Clark county public defender's office is reviewing Davis's case to determine if they can represent him, and the judge may appoint a defense attorney at taxpayer expense. Davis, who has publicly described his role in Shakur's death, is expected to plead not guilty to the murder charge.
