The Duane “Keffe D” trial, which was formerly scheduled for the next month in Las Vegas, was re -tried on February 9, 2026. The judge ordered the prosecutor and defense to return to the court during the summer to attend a hearing of the situation.

When the judge was asked if he was fine while moving the trial in that much, Davis agreed.
Davis’s defense team submitted a proposal on Friday in search of more time, saying that the work of the critical investigation had to be done and it was necessary to conduct an interview with the witnesses to ensure a fair trial. Lawyers said that a private investigator has identified witnesses that could testify that Davis was not at the point of shooting.
Lawyer Karl Arnold, who is leading the defense, said the case has been involved in allegations for decades and critical facts that have not been fully examined.
On the night of September 7, 1996, Shakur was in the BMW car, driven by the founder of Death Row Records Marion “Suge” Knight. They were waiting in a red light when the white Cadillac withdrew next to them and the shooting erupted.

They want to consult medicine and forensic experts to assess the possible alternative causes of death.
