The trial for the shooting death of Tupac Shakur has been pushed back by almost a year following a request from the defence team.

Keefe D will still stand trial in April of this year, though, based on a separate incident which occurred last year while he was incarcerated.

Attorneys for the man suspected of killing rap icon Tupac Shakur want to delay next month’s trial, saying more time is needed for investigative work to ensure that Duane “Keffe D” Davis gets a fair trial.
