Tupac Shakur has claimed that his past comments regarding the shooting were simply “entertainment”.Duane “Keffe D” Davis, 60, was charged with the murder of the legendary hip-hop artist this September – 27 years after Shakur was fatally wounded from a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas.A Nevada judge set a June 3, 2024 date for the trial last month.
It came shortly after Davis pleaded not guilty to the charge of open murder with use of a deadly weapon with a gang enhancement.As The Guardian reports, Davis – who has been denied bail since he was first arrested – has asked a judge to put him on house arrest ahead of his trial.
His legal representatives are also requesting that the court establish a “reasonable bail”.“Duane should not be denied bail in this case.
It cannot be said that the proof is evident and the presumption great that Duane is guilty of first-degree murder for the death of Shakur,” the motion read (via Rolling Stone).“This Court should release Duane on house arrest with electronic monitoring pending trial.”A January 2 hearing date was set this week regarding Davis’ bid to be released on no more than $100,000 bail.The bail request is on the basis that an “astounding amount of hearsay and speculative testimony” emerged during grand jury proceedings.The lawyers pushed back on state reliance on excerpts from Davis’ 2019 memoir Compton Street Legend.
