Duane Davis, a former gang member known as Keffe D, was indicted on one count of murder with a deadly weapon by a Nevada grand jury Friday.
The victim: Tupac Shakur.
It’s a case that has made national headlines since 1996 when it took place and has been the subject of a multitude of documentaries and scripted projects.
Dear Mama: The Saga of Afeni and Tupac Shakur, directed by Allen Hughes, one-time friend and one-time foe of Tupac’s, was the most high-profile recent series, having premiered in April. The series focuses on Tupac’s relationship with his mother Afeni, a Black Panther activist, rather than his death.
Hughes told Deadline that today was a “great day for the family.”
He revealed that when he was pitching the project around Hollywood, he had a different subtitle: This Is Not A Murder Investigation.
“[Dear Mama] was very matter of fact, very frank about what happened.

Leslie Jones is opening up about the true cost of starring in 2016’s “Ghostbusters.”
The “SNL” alum revealed in memoir “Leslie F*cking Jones” (as excerpted by Rolling Stone) that while she endured racist backlash, she also made “way less” than her co-stars Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, and Kate McKinnon. The female-led take on the supernatural ’80s classic was directed by Paul Feig.
“It was made clear to me at times during the process that I was lucky to even be on that movie, but honestly, I was thinking, ‘I don’t have to be in this muthafucka,’ especially as I got paid way less than Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig,” Jones wrote. “No knock on them, but my first offer was to do that movie for $67,000. I had to fight to get more (in the end I got $150K), but the message was clear: ‘This is gonna blow you up — after this,...

New Delhi, June 14 (Ians) Union Minister of State for Electronics and It, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, on Wednesday again hit out at former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, further questioning his India ‘pressure’ statement amid the ongoing US political season.
Speaking at the ‘Fe Digital Bharat Economy Conclave 2023’, the minister reiterated that the India ‘pressure’ statement was an outright lie by Dorsey.

New Delhi, June 13 (Ians) The Centre on Tuesday lashed out at former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey for claiming that the Indian government threatened to wind it down and conducted raids on employees’ homes, saying it is an attempt to “brush out that very dubious period of Twitter’s history”.
Reacting to Dorsey who alleged in an interview with YouTube channel Breaking Points that the threats came as Twitter refused to comply with the government’s demands to block accounts during the farmers’ protests in early 2021, Union Minister of State for Electronics and It, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, said that no one went to jail nor was Twitter shut down in the country.
“This is an outright lie by @jack — perhaps an attempt to brush out that very dubious period of Twitter’s history. Twitter under Dorsey and his team were in repeated and continuous violations of the India law,” Chandrasekhar said in a tweet.
