In a recent court appearance, Tupac Shakur’s murder suspect, Duane “Keefe D” Davis, expressed concerns about his declining health while in custody.
With the support of Wack 100, Keefe D made a plea for bail on the grounds of his deteriorating cancer condition during the hearing earlier this week. “I got cancer. I been in jail eating processed food. I had colon cancer… they serve all this processed food, they don’t serve no fruit, it’s terrible. Fake potatoes, fake milk. Fake everything. It ain’t good for an ex-cancer patient. I got it again.” Keefe D went on to detail the insufficient medical assistance he has received, recounting a recent hospital visit on May 5 that required emergency surgery and a referral to his cancer doctor. “I’m in a life situation and I will do anything to save my life,” he added.
Even after pooling together $750,000 for bail with the assistance of Wack 100, Keefe D was hit with some upsetting news as the judge rejected the plea, casting doubt on the origin of the funds. As we previously reported, Keefe D’s legal representatives had shared concerns regarding his dietary restrictions and medical attention while incarcerated.
In a motion for bail last year, his attorneys argued, “He is not getting his bi-monthly oncologist check-ups. Additionally, his heart health has declined. He was put back on a group of medications to try to get things under control. His diet in jail is terrible. He is given heavily-processed meals full of sodium that barely pass as food.”

Judge Kierny raised suspicions about the source of the bail funds and postponed the ruling, citing uncertainties. Stating, “I don’t really see where the money is coming from.” Wack 100 claimed to have secured the funds, but the court suspected the money might have been raised in exchange for an interview with Keefe D.
