It is worth noting that while this verdict brings some measure of satisfaction to those who have been following the case, it also raises questions about how justice can be served in cases where there may not be enough evidence to convict. The case against Duane "Keffe D" Davis was built on circumstantial evidence and testimony from several key witnesses, including Suge Knight, Tupac's former manager.
"I'm glad that the truth has finally come out," said Suge Knight in a statement after the verdict was announced. "But I also know that this won't bring back my friend Tupac." The case is now set to move on to sentencing, where Duane "Keffe D" Davis will face the consequences of his actions.
