Judge denies bail for ex-gang leader accused of killing Tupac Shakur due to potential cover-up concerns.

Judge Denies Bail for Ex-Gang Leader Accused of Killing Tupac Shakur: Duane "Keffe D" Davis, a former Los Angeles-area gang leader accused of murdering rapper Tupac Shakur in 1996, has been denied bail by a judge who cited concerns about a potential cover-up in the music industry. The judge expressed suspicion that the money provided for bail may be connected to a deal to tell Davis' story in a TV series. Davis has claimed for years that he played a significant role in the gang-orchestrated shooting of the rapper, drawing scrutiny from prosecutors. In 2023, a grand jury indicted him on one count of murder with use of a deadly weapon. Judge Carli Kierny of the Eighth Judicial District Court in Nevada refused to release Davis due to a dispute over the source of the funds that would have been used for bail.
