Duane “Keffe D” Davis has lost a key court battle ahead of his murder trial over the killing of Tupac Shakur.
A Las Vegas judge ruled that prosecutors can use Davis’ 2008 police interview and his memoir as evidence when the trial begins on August 10.
During the interview, Davis allegedly identified his nephew, Orlando Anderson, as the man who shot Tupac during the 1996 drive-by attack.
Davis wanted the interview thrown out, saying police agreed to keep it private.
Prosecutors argued that he later shared the same story publicly, and the judge sided with them.
Davis became the first person charged in Tupac’s murder after police arrested him in 2023.
He denies the allegations and has pleaded not guilty.
