Keefe D is attempting to get the Nevada Supreme Court to dismiss the charges against him for allegedly murdering 2Pac in 1996.
In a motion to dismiss the case, Keefe D argues there is a lack of evidence against him.
The filing states: “This prosecution has captured worldwide attention. The global public is watching how Nevada upholds due process, fairness, and the rule of law in one of the most closely scrutinized criminal proceedings in recent memory.”
It adds: “Nevada law is unambiguous: a conviction cannot rest solely on an uncorroborated extrajudicial statement. The State has offered nothing to corroborate the trustworthiness of Mr. Davis’s alleged statements, and nothing independently connecting him to the murder itself.”
Keefe D had also filed a motion earlier this year looking to dismiss the charges which was denied.
In his first interview since his arrest earlier this year, Keefe D denied killing 2Pac.
“I did not do it,” he said, before downplaying prosecutors’ case against him. “They don’t have nothing. And they know they don’t have nothing. They can’t even place me out here. They don’t have no gun, no car, no Keefe D, no nothing.”
Keefe D also claimed that he was hundreds of miles away in Los Angeles the night 2Pac was fatally shot on the Las Vegas strip — and has “about 20 or 30 people” who can corroborate his alibi at trial.
The accused killer went on to accuse Reggie Wright Jr., an ex-Compton police officer and former head of security at Death Row Records, of being the mastermind behind the murder, labeling him and his security company “mercenaries.”
Wright Jr., who previously testified in front of the grand jury that would charge Keefe D with 2Pac’s murder, hit back at the claims.
“It’s heartbreaking they keep dragging in my name. I didn’t have anything to do with that. One of the worst days of my life when I heard that that happened,” he told ABC News.
“Keefe D confessed to Tupac’s murder to the LAPD in 2008, to the Las Vegas Metro PD in 2009 and then publicly from 2018-2023 on BET, multiple YouTube interviews, and in a book about his life, and is only now using the media to slander me because he finally got arrested and has no other defense.”
