LAS VEGAS — SHAKUR, The arrest of a couple by Las Vegas SWAT personnel during a nighttime house raid in July in connection with the unsolved murder of rapper Tupac Shakur was caught on police lapel cameras.

The pair’s faces were obscured as the cops shouted orders to “come out with your hands up and your hands empty!” in the 24 heavily censored recordings The Associated Press received on Thursday. The films do not look for the residence or identify the couple.

However, according to a copy of the search warrant, investigators were looking for information “concerning the murder” of Shakur from Duane “Keffe D” Davis, one of the few living witnesses to a tragedy that has captivated the public for years.

The probe is being kept under wraps by the authorities. They haven’t provided any details about the long-abandoned case, including why they got a warrant today to take goods from a man known to detectives, beyond a terse statement issued last month confirming their raid in the adjacent city of Henderson.

The uncle of one of Shakur’s well-known enemies, Davis, a self-described “gangster” now 60 years old, was initially thought to be a suspect in the police probe.

Las Vegas SWAT personnel arrested a couple during a nighttime house raid in July in connection with the unsolved murder of rapper Tupac Shakur.

The couple could be seen leaving the garage with a spotlight on them in the recently made public videos after a SWAT officer continuously proclaimed their arrival on the megaphone.

The policeman explained, “It’s the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.” “We have a warrant for a search. You must exit with your hands raised and your pockets bare.

According to one of the videos, another officer called the woman and advised her to maintain her composure and leave through the garage.

The SWAT officer instructed her, “I want you to stay on the phone with me.” “Open that door, please.”

The woman said, “Please don’t shoot me.

The man and lady approached the policemen one at a time, their hands on their heads, as they slowly descended the driveway and into the neighborhood’s whirlwind of red and blue police lights.

“Who are you seeking? Me?” As the officers zip-tied his hands behind his back, the man spoke. He wore a black shirt, tank top, and dark shorts.

Las Vegas SWAT personnel arrested a couple during a nighttime house raid in July in connection with the unsolved murder of rapper Tupac Shakur.

When the man was asked for his name, the audio in the video was shut off. He claimed that the only people inside the house were him and his wife.

It was not immediately obvious if Davis had a lawyer who could make a statement on his behalf, and messages left on the phones of Davis and his wife that were publicly listed did not get a response.

The real police search is not depicted in the videos. A copy of Davis’ 2019 tell-all memoir, “Compton Street Legend,” as well as numerous computers, a mobile, a hard drive, a magazine that featured Tupac Shakur, and several others. According to the search warrant, 40-caliber bullets and “tubs containing photographs” were also reportedly found.

In the book, Davis claimed that in a private meeting with federal and local officials in 2010, he first broke his silence on Tupac’s murder. When he consented to meet with them, he was 46 and faced a life sentence for drug-related offenses.

Davis wrote that if I aided them, they would destroy the indictment and stop the grand jury.

Shakur was shot and killed on September 7, 1996, while standing at a stop sign near the Las Vegas Strip in a BMW driven by Marion “Suge” Knight, the founder of Death Row Records. Gunfire broke out as a white Cadillac drew up beside them, striking Shakur multiple times. A week later, the 25-year-old rapper passed away.

In his autobiography, Davis acknowledged being in the Cadillac. He accused his nephew Orlando Anderson of being one of the two passengers in the back of the car where the bullets were fired and claimed he “tossed” the weapon used in the attack into the back seat.

The altercation, which involved Anderson, Shakur, and others earlier in the evening in a casino, erupted shortly after the shooting.

Anderson denies having any part in the murder of Shakur. Two years later, he passed away in a shooting in Compton, California. Davis claims that he is the sole surviving eyewitness of the four guys in the Cadillac in his memoir. Knight, who survived the drive-by shooting, is currently doing time in jail in California for killing a man in 2015 by running him over with a pickup truck.

Al Pacino revealed that he nearly died from COVID-19 in 2020 and expressed his thoughts on what happens after death.

In interviews with The New York Times and People magazine, the Academy Award-winning actor discussed getting the virus and temporarily losing his pulse.

Al, 84, told the Times in a wide-ranging interview that he started feeling “unusually not good” and soon got a fever and dehydration. “I was sitting there in my house, and I was gone,” he stated. “I didn’t have a pulse.”

Al Pacino Reveals He Nearly Died Of Covid-19 – And Gives His Thoughts On The Afterlife

“You’re here, and you’re not. I thought, “Wow, you don’t even have any memories.” You have nothing. “Strange porridge,” the “Scarface” actor claimed about his near-death encounter.

Within minutes, an ambulance arrived at Al’s house, and he regained consciousness with six paramedics and two physicians in his living room, he claimed.

“They had these outfits on that looked like they were from outer space or something,” he told the local newspaper. “It was very frightening to open your eyes and witness that. Everyone was surrounding me, and they said, ‘He’s back. “He’s here.”

Al told People that when he regained consciousness, he felt confused. “I looked around and I thought, ‘What happened to me?'”

Despite “everybody” believing he was dead, the movie veteran claimed he is not sure if he perished. “I thought I had died. I might not have. I honestly don’t think I have. “I know I made it,” he stated.

Al hailed his “great assistant” by swiftly alerting paramedics after his nurse confirmed that he no longer had a pulse.

“He got the people coming, because the nurse that was taking care of me said, ‘I don’t feel a pulse on this guy,'” remembered Al Pacino.

When asked if the health concern had impacted the way he lived his life, Pacino replied, “Not at all.”

However, this does not imply that the experience had no impact on the performer.

Pacino, who is presently prepping for a film rendition of Shakespeare’s “King Lear,” told The New York Times that the event had a philosophical significance.

“I did not see the white light or anything. “There is nothing there,” he explained. “As Hamlet says, ‘To be or not to be,’ and ‘The uncharted place from which no traveler returns.’ He then says two words: ‘no more.’ “It was no more,” Pacino concluded.

“You are gone. I’d never considered it in my life. But, you know, actors: It sounds good to say you died once. What happens when there is no more?

Pacino’s experiences are described in his book, “Sonny Boy,” which will be published on Tuesday.

Washington — The Supreme Court declined to hear R. Kelly’s appeal on Monday, despite the fact that he is currently serving 20 years in jail for child rape charges in Chicago.

His lawyers contended that a lower statute of limitations on child sex crime prosecutions should have applied to actions committed in the 1990s. Current legislation allows charges to be filed when the accuser is still alive.

As is common, the justices did not explain why they declined to consider the case. There were no public dissents. Lower courts have previously rejected his arguments.
