Las Vegas, NV –
In a dramatic courtroom outburst, Keefe D, 2Pac’s murder suspect, claimed he was the victim of tampering with evidence.
Keefe (real name Duane Davis) went on the attack during a hearing to determine whether the accused murderer would be released on bond. He blamed former LAPD detective Greg Kading for the new evidence, which he had also tampered with.
“Greg Kading had them boxes in his house for 15 years in his attic doing all kind of TV interviews,” the former Compton Crip stated. “Them boxes should not be allowed … it is tainted evidence. The man broke a proffer agreement.
“And he broke the law. All kinds of stuff […] This man has been going in them boxes for years. A federal judge in L.A. did a 142-page thing about him. Look it up on the internet.”
When the judge pushed back, Keefe responded by stating: “They just used something in them boxes! From 1996. He knows what he did. They not only ugly on the outside, but they ugly on the inside.”

Audio recordings of Keefe D discussing his suspected involvement in 2Pac’s murder with Kading during a 2009 police interview are among the new evidence that has Keefe D upset.
During the interview Keefe claimed that Diddy had offered him $1 million to kill both Suge Knight and 2Pac at the peak of the rivalry between Bad Boy and Death Row Records in the mid-1990s.
Additionally, he informed detectives that following Pac’s shooting death in Las Vegas in September 1996, the Bad Boy mogul gave half of the money to his associate, Harlem gangster Eric “Von Zip” Martin.
It is said that Keefe was informed—through what is called a proffer agreement—that his remarks would not be used against him in court. However, Kading claims that Keefe was only protected by the agreement as long as that information was kept private.
In numerous interviews and in his 2019 book Compton Street Legend, the ex-gang member has talked extensively about his role in 2Pac’s murder. He has acknowledged that he was in the car when the rap icon was shot and killed in a drive-by.
The case’s presiding judge stated that the courts have not yet determined whether or not any evidence will be excluded from the trial.

Keefe D and his attorneys would need to submit a motion in order to have evidence like the tapes excluded.
Keefe has requested bail, but the judge has not yet granted it while investigators continue to look into the source of his $750,000 bond.
The 61-year-old gained notoriety earlier this week when it was alleged by prosecutors in a fresh court document that he had once gone undercover to try and link Diddy and Von Zip to 2Pac’s death.
Puffy has been referenced 77 times in the filing, but he hasn’t been subpoenaed or charged in relation to the unsolved murder.
In 2011, he told L.A. Weekly that Keefe D’s bounty claim was “pure fiction and completely ridiculous,” denying any involvement.
To the murder of 2Pac, Keefe D has entered a not guilty plea. His trial is scheduled to commence later this year.
