A man accused of orchestrating Tupac Shakur's 1996 killing is on trial. Here's what to know

Rapper Tupac Shakur's murder remains unsolved after decades; now, Duane "Keffe D" Davis, 63, is set to stand trial. Davis faces a single charge of murder with a deadly weapon and intent to promote, further or assist a criminal gang in Shakur's death. Jury selection commences on Monday, with the trial expected to last about a month.

This trial marks the end of one of the biggest unsolved mysteries in hip-hop, which captivated the public for years. Shakur, also known as 2Pac and Makaveli, is widely regarded as one of the most influential rappers of all time. On September 7, 1996, Shakur was shot in Las Vegas while riding in a black BMW with music mogul Marion "Suge" Knight on their way to Club 662, where Shakur was set to perform.

A white Cadillac pulled up, and a gunshot erupted. Shakur, sitting in the passenger seat, was hit multiple times and passed away six days later, while Knight managed to survive. The case lay dormant until recent years, when statements from Davis and a tell-all memoir reignited interest in the case.
