Keefe D continues to claim his innocence. He says former head of security at Death Row Records Reggie Wright Jr. organized the 2Pac’s murder.
The former South Side Compton Crips shot caller is finally coming forward since being arrested in 2023. This week he participated in an interview with ABC News. During the sit down he doubled down on his original claim that he did not have a role in the murder of Tupac Shakur on Sep. 13, 1996 in Las Vegas. “I did not do it,” he proclaimed before he dismissed the state’s case against him. “They don’t have nothing. And they know they don’t have nothing. They can’t even place me out here. They don’t have no gun, no car, no Keefe D, no nothing.”
He went on to point the finger of blame at Reggie Wright Jr., former Compton police officer and Death Row Records executive. “It’s heartbreaking they keep dragging in my name. I didn’t have anything to do with that. One of the worst days of my life when I heard that that happened,” he added. Keefe D says orchestrated the infamous hit via his team of security personnel and “mercenaries.”
When asked about his 2019 book Compton Street Legend he dismissed it and explained that the author, Yusuf Jah, took his story and just ran with it. “I’ve never read the book,” he said. “I just gave him details of my life. And he went and did his little investigation and wrote the book on his own.” Keefe D also explained that he was paid to say he was in the car that killed Tupac Shakur in the multiple interviews he participated in following the release of his memoir.
