Tupac Murder: Full Witness List in Duane Davis Trial Includes Suge Knight

Death Row Records co-founder Marion "Suge" Knight is expected to testify in the murder trial of Duane "Keffe D" Davis.

Marion "Suge" Knight, co-founder of Death Row Records, is set to provide testimony in the murder trial of Duane "Keffe D" Davis. Davis is accused of orchestrating the 1996 killing of rapper Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas. Knight, currently serving a 28-year sentence for a 2015 fatal hit-and-run, is expected to testify as the sole surviving witness to the attack.

Davis, a former leader of the South Side Compton Crips, has not been accused of being the gunman but has been charged as the "shot caller" behind the killing. Prosecutors plan to call between 35 and 45 witnesses, including those who witnessed Shakur moments before the shooting. The list of potential witnesses includes Shakur's family members, former Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman, Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo, and author Yusuf Jah, who co-authored a book with Davis.

The investigation into Shakur's murder was reignited after Davis provided interviews and published a memoir detailing his alleged involvement in the incident.
