Prosecutor Says Diddy Could Face Charges If New Evidence Emerges in Tupac Case

Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson stated that Sean "Diddy" Combs could still face potential charges in the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur if new evidence emerges, following the conviction of Duane "Keefe D" Davis. Wolfson made the comments on September 2, 2026, one day after a Las Vegas jury found Davis guilty of first-degree murder for his role in the fatal shooting. Davis, 63, was convicted on August 31 after jurors deliberated for less than three hours. He is the only person ever charged in connection with Shakur's death and faces a possible life sentence when he is sentenced on October 13. Prosecutors argued that Davis orchestrated the drive-by shooting as retaliation after his nephew, Orlando Anderson, was beaten at the MGM Grand hours before the attack on September 7, 1996.

During the trial, jurors heard recordings of Davis claiming that Combs had offered $1 million to have Shakur and Death Row Records co-founder Marion "Suge" Knight killed. Davis alleged that Combs wanted to "get rid of those dudes.
