A former gang member was convicted for the homicide of rapper Tupac Shakur, a crime that occurred about 30 years ago. The defendant, repeatedly described as the "ringleader," whose orders were obeyed by Crips members, now faces a life sentence without possibility of parole. The trial took place decades after the rapper's death, who was shot in Las Vegas in 1996. The case represents one of the most anticipated criminal proceedings related to violent crimes involving music figures in the United States.
