LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The man accused of killing Tupac Shakur was sentenced Tuesday after a jury found him guilty in a jailhouse fight.
Duane "Keefe D" Davis was sentenced to serve a minimum of 16 months and a maximum of 40 months for the fight, with credit for time served. This sentence came after he was found guilty on two counts: battery by a prisoner and challenges to fight.
This all stems from an incident late last year in which Davis was involved in an altercation with another prisoner after returning from a personal visit.

His trial on that charge is set to begin Feb. 9, 2026.
