Dr. Umar Believed Keffe D Was “Mule” In Conspiracy
Dr. Umar Johnson appeared for an interview on ‘The Art Of Dialogue,’ released on Wednesday, September 2, and revealed he thinks Keffe D was set up. Not only that, but he thinks Keffe’s lawyer was involved.
The Shade Room reported that Duane “Keffe D” Davis was found guilty on Monday, August 31, of first-degree murder. Tupac died on September 13, 1996, in Las Vegas following a drive-by shooting. Davis allegedly did not shoot Tupac. But he admitted that he was present when the shooting occurred on September 7. He shared what went down in his 2019 memoir, ‘Compton Street Legend: Notorious Keffe D’s Street-Level Accounts of Tupac and Biggie Murders, Death Row Origins, Suge Knight, Puffy Combs, and Crooked Cops.’
Furthermore, Keffe D was arrested in 2023, but Johnson said he thinks Davis is a mule in a “much larger conspiracy.”
“… I spoke of the fact that I felt Keffe D was a mule for a much larger conspiracy in the death of Tupac Shakur,” said Johnson. “Here’s the thing, Art. When you deal with any high-level assassination — I don’t care if we talking political like Malcolm X, Dr. King, Patrice Lumumba, Medgar Evers. I don’t care if we’re talking about in the music industry, Notorious Big, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Prince, Jimi Hendrix, or Tupac Shakur; those murders are not carried out by individuals. That takes a lot of planning, and it takes a lot of teams.”
Dr. Umar Johnson went on to say that the government knows who really murdered Tupac Shakur. This, because they allegedly had the rap star under surveillance in the time before his passing.
“He was a mule,” Johnson continued. “That’s what Keffe D was. You’re trying to tell me he paid for this? He orchestrated this? He planned this? The Tupac Jakur assassination was extremely well planned. It involved a lot of different moving parts. And to only bring Keffe D to the table, Art, is to say that we are really not interested in bringing anybody to justice.”
Keffe D Had An Agreement With The Feds In 2008
According to NBC News, federal investigators made an agreement with Davis back in 2008. Federal prosecutors were investigating Marion “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace’s murder. Subsequently, a deal was made, and Davis was told that the proffer agreement gave him full immunity, per ABC7 News.
The ex-gang member said that his late nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, shot the ‘Changes‘ artist.
“I said before, there’s so many other higher-ups involved in Tupac’s assassination that the only way to prevent them from ever being brought to justice is to make sure there’s a fall guy who can take the blame. Because remember, there’s no statute of limitations on murder. There are no statute of limitations on murder. So you can be brought as we saw with Keffe D… it’s 30 years old,” he said.
Dr. Umar Says Keefe D’s Lawyer Set Up A Trap
“It is not complete immunity, but Keffe D was led to believe it was,” he added. “I truly believe, Art, that they set Keffe D up to take the fall back in 2008, 2009, almost 20 years ago. Almost 20 years ago. You’re talking 17 years ago….. I believe Keffe D’s lawyer, who led him into that proffer agreement, which I’m going to call a trap, because I think it was a trap.”
“I believe he was set up to take the fall until such time that they needed to go public with this,” he concluded. “So, somebody involved in Tupac’s murder, for whatever reason, Art, they felt somebody was getting close to the truth, and they needed Keffe to be the fall guy.”
