*The former Compton gang member whose Las Vegas home was raided last week in connection with Tupac Shakur’s unsolved murder claims he provided the weapon to his nephew, who fatally shot the rapper.
As RadarOnline reports, Duane “Keefe D” Davis, 60, admitted he was an accomplice to the1996 murder of Tupac in Las Vegas. Davis told the LAPD in 2009 that his nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, was the triggerman. You can read the full breakdown of his confession here.
Davis claims he witnessed Anderson allegedly shoot and kill Tupac in Las Vegas in 1996.
Anderson was beaten by Pac and former Death Row Records boss Suge Knight in the lobby of MGM Grand on the night Shakur was killed.
Meanwhile, Billy Garland, Pac’s biological father, believes his son’s murder was set up by the U.S. government.
We reported earlier via CNN that the Las Vegas search warrant names Davis and shows police were looking for “items that tend to show evidence of motive and/or the identity of the perpetrator such as photographs or undeveloped film, insurance policies and letters, address and telephone records, diaries, and other documents…”
The property records show that the target of the search, a home on Maple Shade Street in Henderson, Nevada, belongs to Paula Clemons, who is married to Davis.
Police took several tablets, an iPhone, and five computers from the home when they executed the warrant on Monday. Also taken were USB and hard drives, photographs, “purported marijuana,” along with a copy of “Vibe” magazine about Tupac, and a copy of the book “Compton Street Legends” by Keffe D with Yusuf Jah.
In the book, Davis describes himself as one of only two living witnesses to Shakur’s shooting, the other being Marion ‘Suge’ Knight, former CEO of Death Row Records, who is now serving time in prison for manslaughter in an unrelated case. Knight was driving the car in which Shakur was a passenger when the rapper was shot.
Here’s the latest update via RadarOnline:
—In a secretly recorded 2009 interview, Keffe D told the LAPD that his nephew, the late Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, was the triggerman who riddled Tupac’s body with four .40 caliber rounds;
—The first shot skinned Suge Knight, the Death Row Records boss who was driving the black BMW sedan Tupac was sitting in;
—The motive for the murder was a brawl at the MGM Grand hours earlier during which Tupac, Suge, and other Bloods beat Baby Lane to a pulp after a Mike Tyson fight;
—In retribution, a “livid” Keffe D armed himself with a deadly “crew” of trained street killers with a “do or die” desire “to burn” the “a—- up” of Bloods gangsters;
—They wanted to repeat “Al Capone’s Valentine’s Day Massacre” — the 1929 incident during which seven men were lined up against a wall and gunned down execution-style;
—Keffe D was in the front passenger seat of the Cadillac from which the fatal shots were fired at Tupac;
—Terrence “T-Brown” Brown (aka “Bubble Up”) was driving the white Cadillac, while DeAndre “Dre” Smith (aka “Freaky”) and Baby Lane were sitting in the back — all members of the same gang;
—Keffe D said the murder weapon, a .40-caliber Glock pistol, was given to him by a “big-time New York player, pimp and hustler” just hours before the execution killing;
Anderson was shot to death in Compton in 1998 following a gun battle that left two other men dead, MTV reported. He was 23.
