In a recent twist in the ongoing investigation into Tupac's murder, a former cop labeled alleged suspect Keefe D as "stupid" and claimed that his public statements led to his downfall.
The case starts with the tragic shooting of Tupac in Las Vegas in 1996, where Duane "Keefe D" Davis, was recently apprehended and accused of the crime.
The recent disclosure has caused ripples in the music world, hinting at the potential conclusion of a long-standing mystery surrounding the major unsolved crime.
Unexpectedly, Keefe points fingers at the retired police officer for his legal woes, contradicting his earlier admission of guilt during a clandestine conversation with the investigator over a decade ago.
Keefe D's Confession
Recently, a revelation known as a "proffer" has resurfaced to trouble Keefe, as excerpts have emerged in ex-LAPD officer Greg Kading's publication and a televised program.
Kading, a previous member of the LAPD who extensively investigated the homicides of Tupac and Biggie Smalls, is currently crafting a book that sheds light on Keefe's admission of orchestrating the attack on the rap icon.
In defiance of Keefe's claim that he faked the murder story to gain fame and money, Kading remains unwavering in his conviction that Keefe was honest in their initial conversation.
Asserting his stance, Kading firmly stated, "It's not my job to protect Keefe from his own stupidity."
"I never dealt with Keefe in any kind of underhanded, manipulative way," the ex-cop revealed to The Sun. "Everything was always very straightforward and clear, and when he took it upon himself to go out and start publicly boasting about Tupac, he sank his own ship."
"He created his problems," Kading went on to say. "I didn't create his problems for him. He created whatever problems he has currently, which are the problem."

Tupac Murder Trial
In the upcoming trial, prosecutors intend to leverage Keefe D's statements to discredit him, highlighting the recorded proffer as crucial evidence.
Kading explained that by disclosing his narrative, Keefe has essentially invited the challenges he now faces.
The former police's recounting of events poses no threat to the suspect, as he shared the story over a decade ago without any repercussions for Keefe.
Reflecting on the situation, Kading emphasized that Keefe's actions did not result in the other person going to jail, as it would have happened 13 years earlier if that were the case.
Kading said that the consequences of sharing the story led to public judgment of Keefe, but when they shared it themselves, it ultimately led to their downfall.
"And so there's just the reality of the matter is that he talked himself into jail. I didn't talk him into jail."
