Duane ‘Keffe D’ Davis was found guilty of first-degree murder Monday, August 31, in the death of Tupac Shakur. This comes after the case remained unsolved for nearly three decades.
He is the only person ever charged in the murder, CNN reported. Davis is accused of plotting the 1996 killing near the Las Vegas Strip.
Tupac Shakur’s family
Here’s a look at Shakur’s family in the aftermath of the guilty verdict. Shakur’s biological parents were Afeni Shakur and Billy Garland. Afeni, born Alice Faye Williams, was a prominent political activist, and a member of the Black Panther Party. She raised Tupac and his half-sister mostly as a single mother. Billy, also a Black Panther Party activist, was largely absent during Tupac’s childhood. Shakur had no biological siblings, but had several half-siblings and step-siblings. Shakur’s step-siblings included Mopreme Shakur, Chinua Shakur, Nzingha Shakur-Ali and Ayize Jama-Everett.
Mutulu Shakur, who was Afeni’s husband from 1975 to 1982, served as Shakur’s stepfather.
Sekyiwa “Set” Shakur, his maternal half-sister, was raised alongside him by their mother Afeni. Shakur’s paternal half-siblings (Billy’s children) included William “Billy” Garland Jr., a rapper who shares the same biological father as Shakur; N’Neka Garland, an award-winning television writer and producer who died in 2023; Takerra Allen, a contemporary and romance author; Malik Garland; and Landon Garland.
