Duane “Keefe D” Davis denounces prosecution in Tupac Shakur murder case during court hearing on Tuesday (July 23) in Nevada official. Davis, who awaits trial for his alleged role in Tupac’s 1996 death, claims prosecutors used tainted evidence from the infamous mass murder investigation.
Prosecutors claim they have new evidence that Davis was in Las Vegas when Tupac was shot. Corey Edwards, a witness pursued by Detective Greg Kading in the Biggie investigation, claimed in a 2006 statement to police that he was in a car park on the night Tupac was murdered. Vegas saw Davis. Davis disputed the evidence.
“Greg Kading kept these boxes in the attic of his house for 15 years for various television interviews,” Davis said. “These boxes should not be allowed. These boxes should be allowed. Everything is tainted evidence. This guy, he violated the offer agreement, he violated the law, all kinds of things.
Judge Carley Kilney told Davis that prosecutors did not believe they would use anything from the box at trial. Davis was outraged. He verbally attacked prosecutors Binu Parral and Mark DiGiacomo in court.
“They just used what came in the box!” Davis said. “They just used what came in the box! From 1996. Not only are they ugly on the outside, but they’re ugly on the inside… These two guys are here.
Davis was back in court on Tuesday trying to convince Judge Kilney to let him release him on bail, after Judge Kilney denied Davis’ release in June. Wack 100 tried to free Davis on bail, but the judge was concerned about where the money was coming from.
Judge Kilney wanted to ensure the money did not come from Davis, who profited from his alleged involvement in Tupac’s murder. Davis is not allowed to receive compensation for his connection to the case. His attorney, Carl Arnold, argued against the restriction at Tuesday’s hearing.
“As I said, this entire order prevents him from collecting money and is a violation of his free speech rights,” Arnold said.
Arnold filed a motion to reconsider on July 8.
