Ex-Gang Leader Sentenced to 40 Years to Life for Tupac Shakur Murder

Duane Davis, a former gang leader, was sentenced to 40 years to life in prison for his role in the 1996 murder of rapper Tupac Shakur, German newspaper Die Zeit and The Jerusalem Post reported. The sentencing comes roughly 30 years after the killing, which remained unsolved for decades.
