A search warrant issued for a home belonging to the wife of Duane “Keffe D” Davis shows police were looking for items including “notes, writings, ledgers, and other handwritten or typed documents concerning television shows, documentaries, YouTube episodes, book manuscripts, and movies concerning the murder of Tupac Shakur.”
Police seized tablets, an iPhone and computers from the home, along with USB and hard drives, photographs, a “Vibe” magazine issue about Shakur, and a copy of the book “Compton Street Legend” by Davis and Yusuf Jah.
The book is expected to be a key piece of evidence in the case.
“I’m one of the only living eyewitnesses to Tupac’s killing, who also knows the much larger story around the reasons why both Tupac and Biggie were killed,” Davis wrote.

Prosecutors filed a motion in July calling the book “evidence of the months long war” and asking the court to admit it in full because it’s “the single most probative relevant circumstantial evidence of the killers of Tupac Shakur.”
Jurors may also be shown clips from a 2018 BET interview during which Davis admitted on camera to being in the car when the shots that eventually killed Shakur rang out, an admission which is also in the book.
“Going to keep it for the code of the streets,” Davis said, when asked which of the men was responsible for pulling the trigger. “It just came from the backseat, bro.”
