After nine days of testimony, the defense rested Thursday, leaving only closing arguments expected on Monday. Three former Las Vegas police officers testified for the defense, while prosecutors are seeking a life sentence for Davis if he is convicted of murder with intent to promote a criminal gang. Shakur was killed when a white Cadillac pulled up next to him at a red light near the Las Vegas Strip. Davis, 63, did not testify. If convicted, Davis could face life in prison.",
  "summary": "Both sides have rested in the murder trial of Duane \"Keffe D\" Davis, who prosecutors allege orchestrated the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur.",
