Nearly 30 years after the legendary rapper was gunned down in Las Vegas, the murder trial for Duane \u201cKeffe D\u201d Davis\u2014who was arrested in 2023 for orchestrating the attack\u2014began with jury selection this past Monday, August 10.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the trial is finally moving forward, one key figure is staying far away from the courtroom. Suge Knight, the Death Row Records cofounder who was driving the car the night of the shooting, remains the only living witness to the tragedy. Despite being in the passenger seat when bullets tore through the vehicle on September 7, 1996, Knight has made it clear he has no intention of cooperating.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t get paid to solve homicides,\u201d the 61-year-old told ABC News.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodunlocked.com\/tupac-shakur-murder-suspect-speaks-out-claims-innocence\/\">RELATED: Tupac Shakur Murder Suspect Speaks Out for 1st Time Since 2023 Arrest \u2013 Claims They Got the Wrong Guy: \u201cI\u2019m Innocent\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Knight didn\u2019t stop there, explaining his refusal to participate in the proceedings: \u201cThey make me come there against my will. If Keffe D\u2019s lawyers bring me there, it don\u2019t look good for him. If the prosecution brings me there, it don\u2019t look good for them. Leave me out of it \u2026 You have people who wasn\u2019t there, wasn\u2019t in the car, but they\u2019re telling the story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even three decades later, the loss of his friend is clearly still weighing on him. Knight asserted, \u201cThere\u2019s not a day that goes by that [I], personally, [don\u2019t] think about 2Pac, or I miss 2Pac. That\u2019s my brother.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Knight maintained that he refuses to be the reason someone else is locked away, stating that taking the stand would be worse than \u201cshooting\u201d a man in the head because \u201cif you snitch on that person, they die a million times.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI am not going to be responsible for sending another man to prison for the rest of his life,\u201d he added. \u201cIf God\u2019s forgiving, who am I to think I\u2019m bigger than God and don\u2019t forgive? Because I\u2019m not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Knight is currently serving a 28-year sentence in California for a 2015 fatal hit-and-run. Meanwhile, prosecutors are moving forward with their case against Davis, alleging that while he may not have been the one to pull the trigger, he was the mastermind behind the 1996 drive-by that claimed Tupac\u2019s life just six days after the shooting.<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 2 --><\/p><\/div>\n<script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The legal drama surrounding the murder of Tupac Shakur has officially reached a historic turning point.
