A warrant issued by the Las Vegas police and submitted to the Clark County District Court has revealed that the residence of Duane Keith Davis, aged 60, was searched in relation to the murder of rapper Tupac Shakur.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department carried out the search on Monday in Henderson, Nevada, which is less than 20 miles away from the Las Vegas Strip where Shakur was fatally shot in a drive-by incident in 1996.
The items seized from Davis’s home, according to court records, included a desktop computer, a laptop, 40 ink cartridges, a copy of the book “Compton Street Legends,” a copy of a Vibe magazine issue featuring Tupac, two tubs of photographs, and other documents.
The search warrant, signed by Judge Jacqueline M. Bluth, authorized the seizure of computers, electronic storage devices, notes related to media coverage of Tupac’s murder, and evidence of Davis’s affiliation with the Southside Compton Crips, among other items.
“LVMPD can confirm a search warrant was served in Henderson, Nevada, on July 17, 2023, as part of the ongoing Tupac Shakur homicide investigation,” stated the Las Vegas police in a Monday press release.
The investigation into the killing of Shakur has been ongoing for almost three decades.
In 2019, Greg Kading, a retired detective from the Los Angeles police, claimed to CBS News Los Angeles that Shakur’s murder had already been solved after Davis, also known as Keffe D, confessed to his involvement in Shakur’s killing while being questioned in connection with the murder of Biggie Smalls.
