Tupac: What might happen at Opening Statements?

Opening statements are about to begin in the Tupac Shakur murder trial in Las Vegas, nearly 30 years after the rapper was shot dead.

Duane “Keffe D” Davis has pleaded not guilty to murder and denies the allegations against him.

Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty and Fame under Fire’s resident trial attorney Shaun Kent break down what each side needs to achieve in its opening statement, why Davis’s own past words could become central to the prosecution case, and what clues the defence may give about its strategy.

For Fame Under Fire: The Tupac Murder Trial Anoushka will be in the Las Vegas courtoom every day to bring you updates. Make sure you lock in so you don’t miss a thing.
