- A Nevada judge ruled that a crucial 2008 police interview with Duane "Keffe D" Davis can be presented as evidence in his upcoming murder trial for the 1996 killing of rapper Tupac Shakur.
- Davis, 63, is charged with murder and faces a potential life sentence without parole if convicted in the decades-old, previously unsolved case.
- The defense sought to exclude the interview, arguing that Davis believed it was confidential and that detectives had assured him it wouldn't be used against him, but the judge rejected this claim.
- Prosecutors consider the interview a central piece of evidence, as Davis has publicly discussed the shooting, including in a memoir where he admitted being in the car and supplying the gun.
- In the 2008 interview, Davis allegedly stated his nephew, Orlando "Baby Lane" Anderson, "popped them," referring to Shakur and Marion "Suge" Knight, though Anderson died in 1998.
