A jury in the state of Nevada, in the western United States, found guilty this Monday Duane 'Keffe D' Davis of the first-degree murder of American rapper Tupac Shakur. The crime occurred in September 1996.
Duane Davis is a former leader of the California South Side Compton Crips gang. During the trial, evidence was presented linking him directly to the artist's homicide.
The case remained unsolved for nearly three decades, becoming one of the most notorious homicides in American music history. Shakur was only 25 years old when he was shot dead in Las Vegas.
The jury's decision marks the end of decades of investigations into the death of the influential rapper, who was shot in the vehicle he was in after attending a Mike Tyson boxing match.
