Witness gets combative in Tupac murder trial - 'I don't want to send him to prison'

Tupac Shakur's murder trial has reignited 30 years after the West Coast rapper's death in a drive- Duane "Keffe D" Davis, a former leader of the South Side Compton Crips street gang, is accused of orchestrating Shakur's death and is on trial for murder.

On Tuesday, James "Mob James" McDonald took the stand as a key witness in the case. McDonald, a former member of rival Blood street gang offshoot Mob Piru and enforcer at Suge Knight's Death Row Records label, testified that he was threatened with being held in contempt of court if he did not identify those responsible for Shakur's death.
