  "account": "Opening day of Tupac Shakur's murder trial saw prosecutors depict former gang leader Duane \"Keffe D\" Davis as someone driven by revenge, masterminding the drive-by shooting that claimed the life of the legendary rapper. Witnesses transported the Las Vegas jury back to 1996, a time when gangs dominated hip-hop and distrust of police hindered cooperation - contributing to a notorious cold case. Davis, 63, faces charges for Shakur's murder, though he denies the allegations and has pleaded not guilty.",
  "summary": "After he was shot multiple times, Tupac Shakur refused to cooperate with police and told an officer, \"We'll take care of it,\" an officer testified.",
