Defense Says Diddy Could Testify in Keefe D’s Tupac Murder Trial

The potential witness play seeks to chip away at a prosecution case anchored in Duane Davis’s own long-running confessions.

Overview

  • Attorney Michael Pandullo said Sean "Diddy" Combs would be a credible defense witness who could contradict Davis’s past claims.
  • Combs is currently incarcerated, creating logistical and legal hurdles if the defense seeks to compel his testimony.
  • Prosecutors rely heavily on Davis’s recorded interviews and 2019 memoir, which a judge recently refused to suppress for trial.
  • Davis, arrested in September 2023, has pleaded not guilty to orchestrating Tupac Shakur’s 1996 killing in Las Vegas.
  • Trial is set for Aug. 10, 2026, though reporting notes the date could slip into 2027 depending on pretrial developments and witness availability.
