Bail for Tupac Shakur murder suspect set at $750,000

Tupac Shakur‘s murder suspect has been set at $750,000 (£590,000) after being charged for the late rapper’s murder.The legendary west-coast rapper was murdered in 1996 at the age of 25 after being shot in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas. Duane “Keffe D” Davis was arrested in Nevada and charged with ordering Tupac’s murder last September, marking a major breakthrough in the case which had remained unsolved for 27 years.Davis, a former gang leader, pleaded not guilty to the charge of open murder with use of a deadly weapon with a gang enhancement and claimed that his past comments regarding the shooting were simply “entertainment”.Along with his hefty bail, a judge has said that he can be released on house arrest before his trial, which is set for June 3, 2024 (per BBC).During a hearing on Tuesday (January 9), in which Davis was in attendance, his lawyers argued that he should be released due to him being a grandfather, adding that the 60-year-old is not dangerous and would not flee to avoid trial if freed from jail (per KLEW).His attorneys – who were court appointed – also asked that his bail be set at roughly $100,000 (£78,641).

Tupac Shakur trial witnesses “may be at risk of kill order”

Tupac Shakur, may allegedly be the target of a kill order.Ahead of Duane “Keffe D” Davis’ trial, who was charged with the murder of the legendary hip-hop artist in September – 27 years after Shakur was fatally wounded from a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas, prosecutors have claimed that members of his family have been handed a list of witnesses and a “green light” order to kill has been given.The order was allegedly detailed during a phone call between Davis and his son on October 9 and led to at least one witness changing their residence, reports Sky News.Prosecutors Marc DiGiacomo and Binu Palal said in a court filing there were “credible threats to witnesses” that demonstrate Davis “poses a danger to the community”.Despite the allegations, there is no reference in the filing to Davis instructing anyone to harm anyone or to anyone associated with the case being harmed.But the prosecutors argue that Davis should remain behind bars until his trial begins on June 3, 2024.Davis’ lawyer, Robert Arroyo, countered the claims and questioned the alleged phone call between Davis and his son, saying witnesses were not mentioned “let alone threatened”.His lawyers have also argued that the 60-year-old is not dangerous and would not flee to avoid trial if freed from jail, where they claim he’s not receiving proper medical attention following a cancer diagnosis.Davis previously pleaded not guilty to the charge of open murder with use of a deadly weapon with a gang enhancement and claimed that his past comments regarding the shooting were simply “entertainment”.Prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty for Davis, who is the only surviving suspect in the case.

Tupac Shakur shooting suspect Duane ‘Keffe D’ Davis in solitary at jail over concern ‘he will get whacked’

grand jury indicted Davis on a murder with use of a deadly weapon along with a gang enhancement over the 1996 drive-by shooting of the “All Eyez On Me” rapper on the Las Vegas strip.After Wednesday’s court hearing, Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson told reporters Davis — a self-confessed member of the South Side Compton Crips gang — will remain in jail until his next court appearance.“The proof is evident and the presumption is great that he will be convicted of first-degree murder, which allows us to ask for a no bail setting,” Wolfson said. Las Vegas Metropolitan Police served a search warrant in July at the Henderson, Nevada home of Davis’ wife, Pamela Clemons, as part of the investigation.Investigators confiscated several computers, laptops and iPads from the home, as well as .40 caliber cartridges, according to a search warrant obtained by The Post.Shakur’s death had remained unsolved since he was gunned down on Sept.
