Keffe D's Own Tape Reveals His First Thought When Tupac Died

Day 5 of the Duane "Keffe D" Davis trial belonged to a question detectives asked him in 2009: what went through your head when Tupac Shakur died? His recorded answer opens this episode, and everything that follows tracks who profited from the story he's told for years. The retired detective who took his 2008 confession put it in a book. Two consultants from that world helped build a BET docuseries — one of them wrote the interview questions and recorded the session on his phone. The director admitted cutting sealed police audio into the show and paying Davis to sit for it. Prosecutors say all that talking is precisely why the confession can now be used to convict him. The episode also covers Leonard Jefferson, whose photo of Tupac and Suge Knight at a stoplight became the last image of the rapper alive, and whose release from the scene a detective later called a mistake. On tape, Davis insists the shooting grew out of a beating at the MGM Grand, that the crew hunted Suge Knight first, and that his nephew fired the shots. Sean Combs surfaces in Davis's account as well — Combs denies everything, was never a suspect, and has never been charged. It closes with Davis confronting the prosecutor in open court. One man told this story to everyone who'd pay. Now twelve jurors get it for free.
