Judge Carli Kierny found that the interview is admissible in Duane “Keffe D” Davis' trial, which is scheduled to start Aug. 10.
Defense attorney Michael Sanft argued that a 2008 interview Davis gave law enforcement was supposed to be confidential, and that detectives explicitly told him the interview was not supposed to be used against him.
“I sang because they promised I would not be prosecuted,” Davis wrote in his book “Compton Street Legend.”
In the 2008 interview, Davis described how he and his crew saw Shakur that night and pulled up beside them, and said that Anderson “popped them.”
Davis wrote in his book that investigators were “clearly shocked and surprised” when he began answering questions about Tupac's death.
