One of the last living witnesses to the fatal drive-by shooting of rapper Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas was charged with murder with use of a deadly weapon Friday in the 1996 killing, a long-awaited breakthrough in a case that has frustrated investigators and fascinated the public ever since the hip-hop icon was gunned down 27 years ago.
Las Vegas police raided a home in mid-July in the Las Vegas suburb of Henderson that is tied to Davis. Police were looking for items “concerning the murder of Tupac Shakur,” according to the search warrant. They collected multiple computers, a cellphone and hard drive, a Vibe magazine that featured Shakur, several .40-caliber bullets, two “tubs containing photographs” and a copy of Davis’ memoir.It wasn’t immediately clear if Davis has an attorney who can comment on his behalf.
Tupac Shakur’s five-part Hulu docuseries “Dear Mama” comes out on Friday, and it examines his relationship with his mother. Access Hollywood is looking back at a rare 1996 interview from the Access archives with the late rapper just weeks prior to his death that same year. “Dear Mama: The Saga of Afeni & Tupac Shakur” is out on Friday on FX and streaming on Hulu.
After the casino brawl, “Mr. Davis formulated a plan to exact revenge upon Mr. Knight and Mr. Shakur” in his nephew’s defense, DiGiacomo said.Davis revealed in his memoir that he first broke his silence in 2010 during a closed-door meeting with federal and local authorities.
