Tupac Murder Trial Prosecutor Won’t Rule Out Going After Diddy If New Evidence Emerges

Diddy may still be charged in relation to Tupac Shakur's murder if prosecutors discover fresh evidence, according to Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson. On Tuesday, Wolfson expressed that the current evidence is insufficient to file charges against Diddy. However, he emphasized that any new information could prompt additional charges.

Diddy refutes any association with Tupac's 1996 drive-by shooting. Earlier this week, a Las Vegas jury found Duane "Keefe D" Davis guilty of murder in connection with the 1996 incident. During the trial, Davis testified that Diddy offered $1 million to kill Tupac and Suge Knight, claiming Diddy wanted to "get rid of those dudes."

Diddy has consistently denied any involvement in Tupac's murder. A source familiar with Combs stated that Diddy had no connection to the shooting. Prosecutors argued that Davis orchestrated a group of Crips gang members to retaliate after Tupac and others allegedly assaulted Davis' nephew, Orlando Anderson, at the MGM Grand the same night.

Davis was sentenced to life in prison for murder with a deadly weapon and the intent to promote or assist a criminal gang. Diddy is currently incarcerated for four years, having been convicted of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.
