30 years after the murder of Tupac Shakur aka 2Pac, Duane "Keefe D" Davis has been convicted of orchestrating his murder. Believe it or not, this is actually the first conviction in Pac's murder case. 

After weeks of hearing testimony from both sides in the case, it only took the jury 3 hours to deliberate and unanimously find Davis guilty for first-degree murder of Tupac. He is now facing life in prison. 

Was Davis the "trigger man" in the murder? No. However, he was in the car during the shooting and it's believed that he was actually the mastermind of what was ultimately a retaliation for Orlando Anderson being jumped by 2Pac and some of his Death Row affiliates. Essentially, the prosecution said that Davis, and everyone that was in the car went "hunting" for Pac and Suge Knight. Under Nevada State Law, since Davis was in the car, he could be charged with the murder. 

Sentencing for Davis is now scheduled for October 13th.
