Why is Tupac Shakur’s murder investigation being revived? | The Take

Rap artist Tupac Shakur died in 1996, after being shot in the chest on the Las Vegas Strip. For almost 30 years, the case has gone cold; police said there were no witnesses willing to come forward. Now, police are set to present evidence to a grand jury, after raiding a house belonging to Duane Keith Davis, known as Keefe D. Tupac’s lyrics criticizing police and his family’s background in the Black Panther Party may be reasons why the investigation stalled. But why revisit the case now?
