Tupac’s brother accuses 100 unknown individuals of “conspiracy”
New judicial developments emerge in the case of the killing of Tupac Shakurthe rapper murdered in 1996 in Las Vegas. As the start of the trial against the only defendant formally charged so far approaches, Duane Davisscheduled for August 10, the rapper’s family returns to make their voices heard.
Tupac’s half-brother Maurice Shakur (Mopreme), has in fact filed a civil lawsuit for wrongful death not only against Davis, but also against approximately one hundred unidentified people. According to the complaint, these figures – referred to as “John Doe” – took part, in various capacities, in a alleged conspiracy which would lead to the rapper’s death. The legal action therefore introduces new elements that suggest that the murder may not have been the work of a single individual, but the result of a broader and more organized involvement.
Davis is the only one to have made it to the dock after writing in his 2019 memoirs that he was in the white Cadillac from which the fatal shots were fired. The reconstructions indicate that he would have passed the gun to the perpetrator, Orlando Anderson, killed in 1998 in Compton, Los Angeles, again as part of the “war” between East Coast and West Coast in the hip hop scene of the 90s.
