Tupac Shakur murder trial: opening statements begin

A former street gang leader orchestrated the 1996 drive-by shooting of hip-hop star Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas in retribution for the beating of his nephew, a prosecutor told jurors during opening statements in a murder trial tied to a long-unsolved crime. Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, 63, is charged in Nevada's Clark county with a single count of murder using a deadly weapon. He has pleaded not guilty. Defense lawyer Michael Sandt said that after 30 years, investigators still have very little evidence to prove their case. Sandt also said Davis had a habit of talking 'bullshit', and that the accounts he offered in interviews and his book could not be corroborated Tupac Shakur murder trial: gang leader plotted killing to avenge beating of nephew, court hears
