Compton legendary gangster Duane “Keffe D” Davis was found guilty of first-degree murder Monday in the death of rapper Tupac Shakur.

The rapper's death, which happened near the Las Vegas Strip, had remained unsolved for nearly three decades.

Keffe D is accused of plotting the 1996 killing, and he is the only person ever charged in the murder.

CNN reports that in closing arguments, the prosecution said Davis was a “shot caller” in the South Side Compton Crips, alleging he “went hunting” for Shakur. Davis’ memoir, which details the shooting, should be considered an admission by Davis, despite it listing a co-writer, the prosecutor said.

The defence said that Davis’ recounting of the shooting in his memoir was “fiction,” also focusing on missing investigative records and a lack of direct evidence.
