Jailhouse Brawl: 16 to 40 Months in Prison for "Keffe D"

In the courtroom, Duane “Keffe D” Davis complained that he had been attacked: “They charged me because of who I am, and that’s wrong.” On September 2, 2025, Judge Nadia Krall sentenced him to 16 to 40 months in prison. Jurors had already found Davis guilty in April of battery by a prisoner and challenging someone to a fight. Time already served is credited.

The Sentence Changes Nothing About the Murder Trial

This sentence changes nothing about Davis’s situation in the murder case: he remains in custody without bail, and his trial was then scheduled for February 2026. In August, he had changed defense attorneys; Robert Draskovich and Michael Pandullo took over. The prison sentence must be viewed separately from the charge of murdering Tupac, for which the presumption of innocence still applied. Background: The investigation.
