The high-profile murder trial of Duane Keffe D Davis is set to head into closing arguments this coming Monday. It will be a significant moment in a case that is 30 years old. However, while the proceedings in Las Vegas are centered on the allegation that Davis orchestrated the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur, the shadow of another legendary figure in hip-hop has loomed large over the entire hearing.
The name Christopher Wallace, better known to the world as Biggie Smalls or The Notorious B.I.G., has been a constant presence throughout the testimony. Per CNN, the connection between these two deaths has been a source of intense speculation and frustration since the late 1990s. Prosecutors mentioned his name within the first hour of opening statements. Additionally, two witnesses called to testify were originally assigned to investigate his death, not Shakur’s.
