Man charged in Tupac Shakur killing asks to move from jail to house arrest

Attorneys of Duane Keith Keffe D' Davis, whose trial is set for 2024, says the 60-year-old is not getting proper medical attention

A former Los Angeles-area gang leader charged with murder in the killing of hip-hop music icon Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas is deriding the case against him as the product of speculation and second-hand testimony as he asks a judge to put him on house arrest ahead of his trial.

A 2 January hearing date was set Tuesday on Duane Keffe D" Davis's bid to be released on no more than $100,000 bail. His court-appointed attorneys wrote that the health of their 60-year-old client has deteriorated in jail and that he is not getting proper medical attention following a bout with colon cancer that they said is in remission.
