- 0:00Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. He did it? Did Sean
- 0:09Speaker 1: Diddy Combs order a million dollar hit on Tupac Shakur?
- 0:14Speaker 1: Bell documents say, oh yes, he did. Good evening, I'm
- 0:18Speaker 1: Nancy Grace. This is Crime Stories. Thank you for being
- 0:22Speaker 1: with us.
- 0:23Speaker 2: New allegations made against disgraced rappers Sean Diddy Combs.
- 0:28Speaker 1: Well, the walls are falling in around Sean Puffy aka
- 0:31Speaker 1: Diddy Combs. As we learn in court documents, he is
- 0:37Speaker 1: named seventy seven times, at least as it relates to
- 0:43Speaker 1: the murder of Tupac Secur. Now it's a very long,
- 0:48Speaker 1: it circuitous explanation, but what it boils down to is
- 0:52Speaker 1: the East Coast West Coast feud and allegations that he
- 0:57Speaker 1: offered one million dollars for the death of two pots
- 1:00Speaker 1: Shakur even calling making a phone call just after the
- 1:05Speaker 1: hit claiman was that me like somebody else ordered to hit?
- 1:12Speaker 1: Joining me in All Star panel to make sense of
- 1:14Speaker 1: what we know right now.
- 1:15Speaker 3: But listen, things are not looking good for Sean Diddy Combs.
- 1:18Speaker 3: In addition to lawsuits, raids, federal investigation and at secret
- 1:21Speaker 3: grand jury, the only living suspect in Tupac Shakur's murder
- 1:25Speaker 3: now implicates Puff Daddy in the September seventh, nineteen ninety
- 1:28Speaker 3: six drive by shooting. A recent court filing for Dwayne
- 1:31Speaker 3: KFD Davis's upcoming murder trial mentions Puppy seventy seven times,
- 1:35Speaker 3: while Vegas police confirm that Combs has never been and
- 1:39Speaker 3: is not a suspect. The mogul silence is deafening.
- 1:42Speaker 1: Okay, you got to take you into account that KFD
- 1:45Speaker 1: wants bail and could be willing to say anything to
- 1:49Speaker 1: get it. But here's the problem with that argument. This
- 1:54Speaker 1: document has been buried away for a long time under wraps.
- 1:59Speaker 1: It was a profer. What is a profer. A proffer
- 2:03Speaker 1: is when you go outside of the jury's presence, typically
- 2:06Speaker 1: in the judges chamber, sometimes close the courtroom, and you
- 2:10Speaker 1: tell the judge what you're going to bring into evidence
- 2:14Speaker 1: because you need a ruling whether it's admissible or inadmissible.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Sometimes that profer of evidence can be so volatile. If
- 2:22Speaker 1: you put it in front of a jury before it's allowed,
- 2:25Speaker 1: you have a mistrial. It can be that volatile, that inflammatory,
- 2:31Speaker 1: And that's what this document is never meant to see
- 2:35Speaker 1: the light of day, where Sean Puffy comes is named
- 2:39Speaker 1: we know of seventy seven times in the murder, the
- 2:43Speaker 1: hit on Tupac Shakur. It wasn't supposed to come out,
- 2:47Speaker 1: well it has. You know what, how did the whole
- 2:51Speaker 1: thing start? Listen?
- 2:52Speaker 3: The East Coast West Coast refue begins with the near
- 2:55Speaker 3: death of Tupac Shakuri Quad Records, Manhattan. Tupac's invited to
- 2:59Speaker 3: record when he's attacked by three armed men and shot
- 3:02Speaker 3: five times, but lives Vibe magazine says that Sean Puffy
- 3:06Speaker 3: Combs and Notorious Big were both at the studio and
- 3:09Speaker 3: may have known Shakur was being set up.
- 3:12Speaker 4: Tupac's belief Puffy and Big new about the Quad Records
- 3:15Speaker 4: attack adds to the feud between colmb's East Coast Bad
- 3:19Speaker 4: Boy Records and Suge Knight's West Coast Death Row Records.
- 3:23Speaker 4: It escalates when Tupac Shakur, Shug Knight, and Mob Pyru
- 3:27Speaker 4: associates run into South Side Crip Baby Lane Anderson at
- 3:31Speaker 4: the Vegas Mike Tyson, Bruce Selden fight.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Good Gravy that goes back to forever ago. You know what,
- 3:41Speaker 1: Let's figure out what's happening straight out to Lauren Colin,
- 3:44Speaker 1: joining US investigative reporter, hosts of The Outlier podcast and
- 3:48Speaker 1: co host of Primetime Crime on YouTube. Lauren, thank you
- 3:52Speaker 1: for being with us. Listen. Have you ever seen Raiders
- 3:55Speaker 1: at the Lost Art? And I believe it's the arc
- 4:00Speaker 1: of the Covenant that is in the end Indiana Jong
- 4:04Speaker 1: gets it and it's put in a paper in a
- 4:07Speaker 1: cardboard box and sealed up, and it's carted away and
- 4:11Speaker 1: it's put on the bottom shelf of something that looks
- 4:13Speaker 1: like the Story's room for the Smithsonian, never to be
- 4:17Speaker 1: seen again. This document, this document has cracked open the
- 4:23Speaker 1: murder of Tupac, Secure wide open. Tell me about it.
- 4:27Speaker 5: Yes, Kei b d absolutely never thought this would see
- 4:31Speaker 5: the light of day. He is very upset in court.
- 4:34Speaker 5: He said, you broke the proffer agreement. I told you
- 4:38Speaker 5: all this because I was on a task force to
- 4:40Speaker 5: help the LAPD figure out who killed Tupac and also
- 4:45Speaker 5: who killed Biggie Small's. He was helping with both of
- 4:48Speaker 5: these things. So in response to his bail request, the
- 4:52Speaker 5: state put out this one hundred and seventy nine page
- 4:54Speaker 5: document which is extamming. They are saying, look, Dwayne Davis look,
- 4:59Speaker 5: keep d If you can be paid for murder, then
- 5:02Speaker 5: why should you be out on the street.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Okay, you know what Daryl Cohen, a former felony prosecutor's
- 5:08Speaker 1: handled his share of murder cases. Now defense attorney Darryl
- 5:12Speaker 1: Cohen explain in more simple terms if you can, what
- 5:17Speaker 1: is a profer and why this document naming Sean Puffy
- 5:22Speaker 1: Combes as ordering the hit on Tupac Shaker a million
- 5:26Speaker 1: dollar hit was never supposed to see.
- 5:29Speaker 6: The light of day, Lincy. Before there's a trial. When
- 5:32Speaker 6: there's a trial, we have what's called opening statement. That's
- 5:36Speaker 6: when the lawyer says he or she anticipates this is
- 5:40Speaker 6: the evidence that's going to happen from their side, a profit,
- 5:44Speaker 6: back up, a little bit back up before trial. This
- 5:47Speaker 6: is a document or a video or an oral statement
- 5:55Speaker 6: that says, this is why we are here. This is
- 6:00Speaker 6: what I anticipate that you guys will find. Guys, being
- 6:05Speaker 6: plural for a male female doesn't matter. This is what
- 6:08Speaker 6: I anticipate you're going to find. And this is what
- 6:11Speaker 6: I'm telling you has happened. But you got to keep
- 6:13Speaker 6: it quiet because somebody finds out.
- 6:16Speaker 1: I'm toast guys now. In addition, to all of the
- 6:19Speaker 1: other issues, closing in on Sean Puvey Combs. Is he
- 6:25Speaker 1: going to be charged in the murder of Tupac Shakur?
- 6:29Speaker 1: Now the Feds say he has never been a suspect.
- 6:32Speaker 1: He is not a suspect. Okay, I'll take that with
- 6:35Speaker 1: a box assault. Let's go back to how the whole
- 6:38Speaker 1: thing started.
- 6:38Speaker 7: Tupac Shakur, along with sug Night and members of their entourage,
- 6:42Speaker 7: which include members of mom Piru, came to Vegas to
- 6:45Speaker 7: attend the Mike Tyson fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
- 6:48Speaker 7: Members of the South Side Content crips, which included Davis
- 6:52Speaker 7: along with his nephew Orlando Anderson, We're also in attendance
- 6:55Speaker 7: at the same event. As both were leaving the fight,
- 6:58Speaker 7: members of Death Row Records spotted Orlando Anderson near an
- 7:01Speaker 7: elevator bank inside the MGM, and at that time they
- 7:04Speaker 7: began to.
- 7:05Speaker 1: Kick and punch him. Hear that elevator bank.
- 7:08Speaker 7: Following this incident, Tupac and sug Knight both left the
- 7:12Speaker 7: MGM to make their way to a post fight party
- 7:15Speaker 7: which was to occur at a local nightclub at the
- 7:18Speaker 7: same time, where it spread amongst members of the south
- 7:20Speaker 7: Side Compton crypts of what had occurred inside the MGM.
- 7:23Speaker 7: That's when Dwayne Davis began to devise a plan to
- 7:26Speaker 7: obtain a firearm and retaliate against sug Night and mister
- 7:30Speaker 7: Shakur for what occurred inside the hotel against mister Anderson.
- 7:34Speaker 1: So Robert Crispin joining US, formerly with the Federal Task
- 7:39Speaker 1: Force for the US DOJ, now at Crispin Special Investigations.
- 7:44Speaker 1: You're telling me sat up by this for one minute,
- 7:47Speaker 1: that the whole hit on Tupac Shakur was over a
- 7:52Speaker 1: fight at the MGM elevator bank than I of the
- 7:56Speaker 1: Tyson fight. It's a lot deeper than.
- 7:59Speaker 8: That, way back, so deep, I'm sure maybe that's where
- 8:02Speaker 8: they just wanted to start it from, to kind of
- 8:06Speaker 8: deflect from all the other stuff that's been going on.
- 8:08Speaker 8: I don't know, but if I can just run back
- 8:10Speaker 8: to this profit letter real quick, which in the federal side,
- 8:13Speaker 8: after you've been arrested, you know, you do the five
- 8:16Speaker 8: K one, or before you've been arrested, you do the
- 8:18Speaker 8: five K one, which is cooperating with the government and
- 8:21Speaker 8: going in and proffering what you know and what can
- 8:25Speaker 8: you do to help the government's case accelerate and go
- 8:29Speaker 8: further and identify more conspirators.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Ie.
- 8:33Speaker 8: Obviously he then became a police informant. I'm sure you're
- 8:37Speaker 8: going to find out. Undercover calls were there. There were
- 8:40Speaker 8: meetings out in New York. There were meetings all over
- 8:43Speaker 8: the place, meaning and we call them chance encounters of
- 8:46Speaker 8: the government, meaning we follow you, Nancy, and you go
- 8:50Speaker 8: to a gas station and I send the informant and
- 8:52Speaker 8: to get gash right next to you and lo and
- 8:54Speaker 8: behold it's hey, Nancy. Wow, it's so funny to run
- 8:57Speaker 8: into you. And the next thing, you know, we start
- 8:59Speaker 8: that or you start that conversation with the informant who's
- 9:03Speaker 8: wearing a wire or a digital recorder and randomly at
- 9:07Speaker 8: some gas station.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, Robin Chrispin, I think a lot
- 9:10Speaker 1: of you, But I got where's this going? Could you
- 9:12Speaker 1: wrap it up? Blease? You put it tight with a
- 9:15Speaker 1: bow and spit it out.
- 9:17Speaker 8: I probably tipped the scale that night, and that got
- 9:19Speaker 8: him upset. That's when they went to get the gun,
- 9:21Speaker 8: and that's when they went.
- 9:22Speaker 9: And did what they did.
- 9:23Speaker 1: Sure, okay that I understand. Hey, the whole thing is
- 9:28Speaker 1: caught on video. And remember Davis along with nephew Orlando Anderson,
- 9:34Speaker 1: are there. Okay, they're leaving the Tyson fight death Row records.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Peep spot Orlando Anderson and they began to viciously attack him.
- 9:47Speaker 1: Viciously attack him. Okay. After this attack caught on video,
- 9:54Speaker 1: Davis gets a gun. Listen.
- 9:57Speaker 7: After Davis attained a gun, he entered into a white
- 9:59Speaker 7: cat along with Terence Brown, DeAndre Smith, and Orlando Anderson.
- 10:06Speaker 1: As they were in the white Cadillac.
- 10:07Speaker 7: Mister Davis took the gun that he had obtained and
- 10:09Speaker 7: provided it to the passengers. As they were driving west
- 10:13Speaker 7: on Flamingo Road near Covalt, they located the black BMW
- 10:17Speaker 7: which was driven by Suge Knight and then the passion
- 10:20Speaker 7: sheet was Tupac Shakur and as they turned around, they
- 10:23Speaker 7: pulled up near the pasture's side of that vehicle and
- 10:26Speaker 7: immediately began shooting at mister Knight and mister Shakour.
- 10:31Speaker 3: Shakur has hit four times in the chest. Suge Knight
- 10:34Speaker 3: is grazed in the head by a bullet fragment. Tupai
- 10:36Speaker 3: Shakur dies six days later.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Okay, so that's the response. Crime Stories with Nancy Grace,
- 10:55Speaker 1: Karen Start joining me renowned TV and radio trauma expert.
- 10:59Speaker 1: You can find her at karen start dot com. That's
- 11:01Speaker 1: Karen with a seat if you're looking for her Karen. So,
- 11:05Speaker 1: a fight goes down, Okay, the nephew gets beat up
- 11:09Speaker 1: and beaten up really badly, and instead of like most
- 11:15Speaker 1: people would call police or nine one one, what do
- 11:18Speaker 1: they do? Davis goes and gets a gun. They jump
- 11:22Speaker 1: in the white Cadillac and they go looking for Secure
- 11:26Speaker 1: and they find him. Now, explain to me that response,
- 11:30Speaker 1: because I bet if you got beat up, or your
- 11:33Speaker 1: husband Mark got beaten up, you would not go get
- 11:37Speaker 1: a gun, hop in a cadillac and try to chase
- 11:40Speaker 1: the people down. You'd call nine one one a police.
- 11:42Speaker 1: So what is this?
- 11:43Speaker 10: Well, I'm not part of a gang, Nancy, So you're
- 11:46Speaker 10: talking about a whole different culture where they get angry.
- 11:51Speaker 1: They've been angry, I really believe.
- 11:53Speaker 10: Before this even happened, because why did they beat him up?
- 11:57Speaker 10: So this folk feud is going on and their response
- 12:01Speaker 10: to the fighter is I think I'm just gonna go
- 12:03Speaker 10: kill him because they wanted to do that.
- 12:06Speaker 1: They've been ordered to do that.
- 12:08Speaker 10: Anyway, so they needed some kind of an excuse. That's
- 12:12Speaker 10: why it's not the kind of thing where you say, oh,
- 12:14Speaker 10: there's a fight, let me call the police. They're going
- 12:16Speaker 10: to handle this themselves.
- 12:18Speaker 1: So here's the way it goes down to Lauren Colin
- 12:21Speaker 1: joining us, a host of the outlawer, the nephew, the
- 12:25Speaker 1: younger nephew of Keefe d who is Dwayne Davis. The
- 12:31Speaker 1: younger nephew is Orlando Davis. He's the one that gets
- 12:37Speaker 1: beaten up. I mean, yes, thank you. He is the
- 12:40Speaker 1: one that gets beaten up horribly. He's kicked. I'm surprised
- 12:44Speaker 1: he didn't get killed because he's being kicked viciously. And
- 12:48Speaker 1: the lobby of the MGM for Pete's sake, and people
- 12:51Speaker 1: are just milling around like nothing's happening, which amazes me.
- 12:55Speaker 1: I few have the good sense to run. But so
- 12:58Speaker 1: instead of calling nine to one one or what do
- 13:01Speaker 1: they do? They grab guns and they take off. Okay,
- 13:06Speaker 1: what happens next? Listen.
- 13:07Speaker 11: March nineteen ninety seven, the Notorious big is in la
- 13:11Speaker 11: to promote his new album Life After Death. Biggy shoots
- 13:14Speaker 11: a video, gives a radio interview, and presents a music award.
- 13:18Speaker 11: Scheduled to fly to London, he cancels and stays in
- 13:21Speaker 11: LA for an after party, accompanied by a Bad Boy
- 13:23Speaker 11: Records entourage including d Rock Butler, will Cease Gene Deal,
- 13:28Speaker 11: Tone Jacobs, Stevie j and Sean, Puffy.
- 13:30Speaker 1: Combs, Dwayne Keathy.
- 13:32Speaker 3: D Davis claims credit for Tupac's murder on Beet and
- 13:36Speaker 3: in his memoir, he says Puffy Combs wanted Night and
- 13:39Speaker 3: Tupac's heads after their disc track hit them up. When
- 13:42Speaker 3: Davis offers to carry out the hits, Combs agrees to
- 13:45Speaker 3: pay him one million dollars. According to Davis, Eric zip Martin,
- 13:50Speaker 3: a New York drug dealer, suggests they have the perfect
- 13:53Speaker 3: opportunity to carry out Puffy's hit and even provides the gun. Davis, Anderson,
- 13:58Speaker 3: Terrence Brown, and DeAndre Smith stake out the club where
- 14:01Speaker 3: she Cour is performing, but Tupac's a no show and
- 14:03Speaker 3: the Crips abandoned the plan. Driving down the strip, they
- 14:07Speaker 3: spat Night and Tupac stopped in traffic, Brown flips a
- 14:10Speaker 3: U turn in their white Cadillac. Davis passes Anderson the gun,
- 14:13Speaker 3: and Anderson leans over Smith to shoot Tupac.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Okay, so bottom line, Orlando Anderson the suspected shooter who
- 14:22Speaker 1: is Keepd's nephew, is a triggerman, according to these newly
- 14:28Speaker 1: obtained documents that name Sean Puffy Combs as ordering the hit,
- 14:35Speaker 1: the million dollar hit. Now, I'm going to bring in
- 14:38Speaker 1: an expert, and you may wonder why this expert right now.
- 14:43Speaker 1: Her name is Shannon Henry. She's the president founder of
- 14:45Speaker 1: sas GO Surviving Assault Standing Strong. It's a nonprofit mission
- 14:51Speaker 1: to help get rid of abuse on women and trafficking.
- 14:56Speaker 1: You're hearing all of this about an alleged hit by
- 15:00Speaker 1: Sean Puffy Combs. The fat sah no, no, no, no, no, it's
- 15:03Speaker 1: not a suspect on Secure, Like, there's twenty thousand people
- 15:06Speaker 1: milling around in Vegas and nobody knows what happens. Fine,
- 15:11Speaker 1: are you surprised after you've heard about violence by Sean
- 15:17Speaker 1: Puffy Combs on Cassie Ventura. This exclusive video of Cassie
- 15:23Speaker 1: Ventura being viciously beaten by Sean Puffy Combs is from
- 15:28Speaker 1: our friends at CNN, kicking her, beating her, and then
- 15:33Speaker 1: him issuing that I don't even know what to call it.
- 15:37Speaker 1: It's kind of more a pr statement as opposed to
- 15:40Speaker 1: an apology. But there's no doubt he did it because
- 15:43Speaker 1: he issues an apology.
- 15:45Speaker 12: It's so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in
- 15:49Speaker 12: your life. Sometimes you got to do that. I was,
- 15:57Speaker 12: I mean, I had rock bottom. But I make no excuses.
- 16:01Speaker 12: My behavior on that video is inexcusable. I take full
- 16:07Speaker 12: responsibility from my ashes in that video.
- 16:10Speaker 1: So now these bombshell documents have emerged from some moldial
- 16:16Speaker 1: paper box somewhere, and now we know for sure the
- 16:22Speaker 1: Sean Puppy Comes is implicated in the murder of Chupac Shakur.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Are you surprised? If so, why not?
- 16:31Speaker 13: Only am I not surprised, but the most important part
- 16:35Speaker 13: is his victims aren't surprised.
- 16:37Speaker 1: Nancy.
- 16:38Speaker 13: This is thirty years ago, and if we walk through
- 16:41Speaker 13: the history of Ditty, through those years, we meet people
- 16:44Speaker 13: like Kim Porter who was abused by Ditty, We meet
- 16:47Speaker 13: people like Cassie Little Rod, all of these people that
- 16:51Speaker 13: are in the wake of devastation of what he's done.
- 16:54Speaker 13: This is just corroborating evidence for who he is and
- 16:58Speaker 13: what he's capable of.
- 16:59Speaker 1: Are you saying that because my experience and domestic violence,
- 17:03Speaker 1: very often the purp doesn't attack anyone except the female victim.
- 17:08Speaker 1: They love object. But you're saying you're not surprised violence
- 17:14Speaker 1: spills over in other areas of the purp's life.
- 17:18Speaker 13: Explain that, right, And you know, we want to keep
- 17:22Speaker 13: these things under control. If we're an abuser, we want
- 17:25Speaker 13: to manipulate only the person that is the object of
- 17:30Speaker 13: our I don't even want to call it affection, but
- 17:33Speaker 13: our abuse. But the problem with this is sometimes it
- 17:38Speaker 13: seeps out into the rest of our lives, into his career.
- 17:42Speaker 13: We see it in his career. You know, there's a
- 17:45Speaker 13: point where Steve Stout sued him, who is a record
- 17:49Speaker 13: label exect, for assault. So you've got that his social life.
- 17:53Speaker 13: These are the people that he surrounded himself with, gang members,
- 17:57Speaker 13: people like that. So not only is heus for what
- 18:00Speaker 13: he is on the inside, which he shows to Cassie,
- 18:03Speaker 13: but for what he is on the outside and the
- 18:05Speaker 13: people that he surrounds himself with. And it gets all
- 18:08Speaker 13: over everybody, and we're seeing it.
- 18:10Speaker 1: All these years later, and now we're hearing Sean Puffy
- 18:13Speaker 1: Combs offered a million dollar hit for the murder of
- 18:18Speaker 1: two parts secured. Now remember fed say no, no, no, no, no, no,
- 18:22Speaker 1: not a suspect that comes as not a suspect. But
- 18:26Speaker 1: I can tell you this much to Robert Crispin, private
- 18:29Speaker 1: investigator now at Crispin Special Investigations. But listen to this
- 18:32Speaker 1: former Federal Task Force for the United States Department of
- 18:37Speaker 1: Justice DEA, Miami Field Division, former homicide and Crimes against
- 18:42Speaker 1: Children investigator. Okay, Robert Crispin, I know the FED is saying, yeah,
- 18:48Speaker 1: he's not a suspect, but there's a big problem. When
- 18:52Speaker 1: your name shows up seventy seven times in an official
- 18:58Speaker 1: court offer as ordering a murder hit, that's the problem.
- 19:04Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, clearly it's a problem. But I will
- 19:07Speaker 8: tell you from working cases, you got to have coroberating
- 19:11Speaker 8: evidence from something other than a statement from somebody. I
- 19:16Speaker 8: am nearly positive that after that information was given out
- 19:21Speaker 8: that they're some type of a controlled call, attempted some
- 19:25Speaker 8: type of the investigation to tie the cell phones in
- 19:28Speaker 8: together back on that night. Something more has to be
- 19:33Speaker 8: present or more tangible that we can touch to prove
- 19:36Speaker 8: it other than somebody's word, especially if they have a
- 19:40Speaker 8: criminal history.
- 19:42Speaker 1: It's tough. You don't want to hear it.
- 19:44Speaker 8: But unfortunately, he hasn't been arrested yet, which leads me
- 19:47Speaker 8: to believe that they don't have enough trust me as
- 19:50Speaker 8: a FED If I had enough to arrest you, I
- 19:53Speaker 8: didn't wait. I went out and I got you. And
- 19:55Speaker 8: the FEDS would love to tag and arrest of he
- 19:59Speaker 8: did he trust me?
- 20:00Speaker 6: Would?
- 20:00Speaker 8: This has just gone too long. They just don't have
- 20:02Speaker 8: that one thread that they need. That's my opinion. That's
- 20:05Speaker 8: why he's not in custom.
- 20:06Speaker 1: Yeah. I hear what Chrispin is saying, Daryld Cohen, But
- 20:10Speaker 1: remember Darald Cohen. Before I prosecuted felonies in inner City Atlanta,
- 20:16Speaker 1: I was a FED guys with the FEDS for three years.
- 20:19Speaker 1: You know. On one case alone, I had a whole
- 20:23Speaker 1: room full of cardboard boxes of evidence floor to ceiling,
- 20:29Speaker 1: and they still didn't move on it. For Pete's sake.
- 20:32Speaker 1: I mean, so they're so slow, it's like a Byzantine labyrinth.
- 20:41Speaker 1: It's insane. So I don't know. I don't know if
- 20:45Speaker 1: the Feds have enough or they don't have enough. But
- 20:47Speaker 1: I can't tell you this much. When your name pops
- 20:49Speaker 1: up nearly eighty times connecting you to a hit on
- 20:52Speaker 1: Tupac Shakur, you're up the creek without a paddle. I'm
- 20:55Speaker 1: surprised this guy's still walking around.
- 20:57Speaker 6: I think Nantcy they're waiting. The magic word here is
- 21:00Speaker 6: yet they don't have enough evidence yet in their view,
- 21:04Speaker 6: because the fans you were there. I haven't been a
- 21:07Speaker 6: federal prosecutor, but I certainly have been in federal court enough.
- 21:11Speaker 6: You know that when they get you, they've got you.
- 21:15Speaker 6: You can't move left, you can't move right, you can't
- 21:18Speaker 6: move up, you can't move down. There is no movement.
- 21:21Speaker 6: They have got you every which way, and that's probably
- 21:24Speaker 6: what they're waiting for. And I agree they're looking for two.
- 21:28Speaker 6: They're looking for the murderer of Tupac, but more than that,
- 21:32Speaker 6: they're looking for somebody called puff Diddy. They want him
- 21:36Speaker 6: and they want him bad. He's been associated with far
- 21:40Speaker 6: more crimes and they've executed search warrants on the East coast,
- 21:45Speaker 6: the West coast. They want him and they want him badly.
- 21:48Speaker 6: And then they've got the other videos of him being
- 21:50Speaker 6: so kind. And I say that with all facetiousness, they're
- 21:56Speaker 6: going to get him, and the word is yet they will.
- 21:59Speaker 1: Well, oh what, darryl Uh, I'm not holding my breath.
- 22:02Speaker 1: You do know Tupac Shaker was going down in nineteen
- 22:05Speaker 1: ninety six and nothing has happened yet, so okay. In
- 22:10Speaker 1: the meantime, listen to.
- 22:11Speaker 3: This Dwayne Keethy d Davis claims credit for Tupac's murder
- 22:15Speaker 3: on beet and in his memoir he says Puffy Combs
- 22:18Speaker 3: wanted Knight and Tupac's heads after their disc track hit
- 22:21Speaker 3: them up. When Davis offers to carry out the hits,
- 22:24Speaker 3: Combs agrees to pay him one million dollars. According to Davis,
- 22:29Speaker 3: Eric zip Martin, a New York drug dealer, suggests they
- 22:32Speaker 3: have the perfect opportunity to carry out Puffy's hit, and
- 22:35Speaker 3: even provides the gun. Davis, Anderson, Terrence Brown, and DeAndre
- 22:39Speaker 3: Smith stake out the club where Shakur is performing, but
- 22:42Speaker 3: Tupac's a no show and the Crips abandoned the plan.
- 22:45Speaker 3: Driving down the strip, they spot Night and Tupac stopped
- 22:48Speaker 3: in traffic. Brown flips a U turn in their white Cadillac.
- 22:51Speaker 3: Davis passes Anderson the gun, and Anderson leans over Smith
- 22:55Speaker 3: to shoot Tupac.
- 22:56Speaker 9: Davis public claims about Tupac's murder reinvigorate the Cave. Vegas
- 23:00Speaker 9: police search Kefd's home in Henderson, Nevada. Among items, sees
- 23:05Speaker 9: our computers, hard drives, and magazine articles about Tupac and
- 23:09Speaker 9: his death. After a grand jury, Dwayne Davis is arrested
- 23:12Speaker 9: for murder.
- 23:13Speaker 1: I can't believe this, Lauren Colin. It took Keifd claiming
- 23:19Speaker 1: credit for Tupac's murder, not only on Beet, but in
- 23:25Speaker 1: his memoirs he wrote about it. It took that to
- 23:29Speaker 1: reinvigorate their words, not mine the case. There's his book
- 23:34Speaker 1: Common Street Legend where he admits to his part in
- 23:38Speaker 1: Tupac's murder. Well, you have to go on Beet and
- 23:42Speaker 1: confess to murder before you can get arrested. Man. You
- 23:45Speaker 1: cannot get arrested in that town.
- 23:46Speaker 4: Oh yeah.
- 23:47Speaker 5: And just so you know, he was still bragging about
- 23:50Speaker 5: it as he was being taken out in puffs in
- 23:52Speaker 5: twenty twenty three. But Nancy, I want to point something out.
- 23:55Speaker 5: The fight at the MGM that happened because allegedly Orlando
- 24:00Speaker 5: Anderson stole a death Row Records medallion.
- 24:04Speaker 6: These were very important.
- 24:05Speaker 5: There were bounties for these medallions, so they were getting
- 24:09Speaker 5: revenge on Orlando Anderson. And also it should be known
- 24:13Speaker 5: that Keith d is not actually in this video.
- 24:17Speaker 1: Okay, let me understand what Lauren Colin just said. Now,
- 24:20Speaker 1: Lauren Collin, OJ Simpson is a double killer. We all
- 24:25Speaker 1: know that. But then after he skated on those charges,
- 24:29Speaker 1: he then goes and does an armed robbery and an
- 24:33Speaker 1: aggravated assault with one of my old co defendants that
- 24:36Speaker 1: I put behind bars on trafficking drugs, Charles Erlik. They
- 24:41Speaker 1: get together and go commit an armed robbery in Vegas
- 24:44Speaker 1: over what they claim was sports paraphernalia souvenirs that really
- 24:51Speaker 1: belonged to Simpson, and that was the justification. Okay, you're
- 24:56Speaker 1: telling me, oh, well this happened because Orlando had stolen
- 25:02Speaker 1: a medallion. I don't care why it happened.
- 25:05Speaker 5: True, well, I want to clarify that though I wanted
- 25:07Speaker 5: to just put that out there. And also, don't do
- 25:10Speaker 5: a few death Row Records and Bad Boy Records.
- 25:13Speaker 1: This is also important.
- 25:15Speaker 5: It's like the bloods in the Crypts here, these two
- 25:18Speaker 5: record labels were at odd. They were hugely competitive, and
- 25:23Speaker 5: in my opinion here I mean, did he you know
- 25:26Speaker 5: he had a lot to lose if if Death Row
- 25:30Speaker 5: Records did better than Bad Boy Records.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Second verse, same as the first. Don't care why Tupac
- 25:38Speaker 1: Shakur was gunned down. Don't care. There is no justification
- 25:43Speaker 1: for cold blooded murder. I don't care who stole whose
- 25:47Speaker 1: rap medallion? Don't care, don't care about their food. They're
- 25:52Speaker 1: all rolling in millions of dollars. What are they fighting about?
- 25:56Speaker 1: A vicious sight broke out and one side vowed revenge.
- 26:02Speaker 1: My only question right now to hey with a medallion
- 26:06Speaker 1: or a feud? Don't care. All I care about right
- 26:10Speaker 1: now is did Sean Puffy Combs order this hit?
- 26:16Speaker 2: KEFD claims Diddy paid one million dollars to have Tupac eliminated.
- 26:23Speaker 1: I'll tell you this much, and my name popped up
- 26:25Speaker 1: seventy seven times in documents, in court documents belonging to
- 26:30Speaker 1: the FEDS. I would be worried right now. To Lauren
- 26:33Speaker 1: Colin joining us, a host of the Outlier podcast Investigative Reporter,
- 26:38Speaker 1: isn't it true that Sean Puffy Combs has taken everything
- 26:42Speaker 1: down from his social media except for one happy birthday
- 26:45Speaker 1: wish to his daughter?
- 26:46Speaker 5: Oh yeah, and he has his La mansion for sale.
- 26:50Speaker 5: I mean he is keeping a low profile right now.
- 26:53Speaker 5: It's also been said that he has obtained three different
- 26:57Speaker 5: law offices. I mean, why do you need three.
- 27:00Speaker 1: I think I know why guys. Did comes order the
- 27:04Speaker 1: hit on Tupac Shakur. Did he offer a million dollars
- 27:10Speaker 1: pay day to whoever would kill his rival? And yes,
- 27:15Speaker 1: Shakour died immediately thereafter according to evidence. Now the fans
- 27:20Speaker 1: insist he's not a suspect. Okay, listen to this.
- 27:24Speaker 7: Within the first few months of the investigation, our detectives
- 27:29Speaker 7: knew most of the information I just briefed you on. However,
- 27:32Speaker 7: we never had the necessary evidence to bring this case
- 27:35Speaker 7: forward and present it for criminal charges. It wasn't until
- 27:38Speaker 7: twenty eighteen that this case was reinvigorated as additional information
- 27:44Speaker 7: came to light related to this homicide, specifically Dwayne Davis's
- 27:50Speaker 7: own emissions to his involvement in this homicide investigation that
- 27:55Speaker 7: he provided to numerous different media outlets.
- 27:57Speaker 1: Dwayne Davis was.
- 27:58Speaker 7: The shot caller for this group of individuals that committed
- 28:02Speaker 7: this crime, and he orchestrated the plan that was carried
- 28:06Speaker 7: out to commit this crime.
- 28:07Speaker 1: Here being Vegas Police lieutenant, that's Jason Johansson speaking echo
- 28:13Speaker 1: ing what we heard now private investigator former Fed Robert
- 28:17Speaker 1: Crispins saying that they are looking for just the right
- 28:21Speaker 1: connection to tie the assassination of Tupac Shakur to Sean
- 28:27Speaker 1: Puffy Comes doesn't even exist. Fans keep insisting he's not
- 28:31Speaker 1: a suspect. You know, Darryl Cohen, you ever heard the
- 28:34Speaker 1: phrase from Shakespeare? Mean thanks thou dost protest too much?
- 28:38Speaker 1: I didn't ask them, is diddy? Sean Puffy Comes a
- 28:42Speaker 1: murder suspect a Shakur's murder. They just keep putting it
- 28:45Speaker 1: out there. He's not a suspect. He's not a suspect.
- 28:48Speaker 6: He's not a suspect until he becomes a defendant. Antie
- 28:51Speaker 6: Joeybarra once said it ain't over until it's over, and
- 28:55Speaker 6: it ain't even close to being over. You just wait
- 28:58Speaker 6: and saw Sean Puffy Holmes is not going to be
- 29:01Speaker 6: a suspect ever until he's a defendant. You just wait.
- 29:06Speaker 6: Time will tell, And it's certainly been twenty eight years,
- 29:09Speaker 6: so another six months or year doesn't matter. The more
- 29:12Speaker 6: pressure that he is under, the more he is going
- 29:15Speaker 6: to start wilting and freaking out if he does what
- 29:19Speaker 6: I predict he's going to do, and we'll.
- 29:21Speaker 1: See Karen starting joining me a renowned psychologist at Karenstark
- 29:24Speaker 1: dot com Karen. We earlier heard INVESSID reporter Lauren Conlin
- 29:30Speaker 1: trying to make some feeble attempt to explain why the
- 29:36Speaker 1: nephew Orlando Anderson, who's Keith E. D. Davis' younger nephew,
- 29:43Speaker 1: why he was beaten up so viciously at the MGM
- 29:47Speaker 1: Grand following the Tyson fite that reportedly Orlando Orlando Anderson
- 29:54Speaker 1: had stolen a gold I don't mean golden, I mean
- 29:59Speaker 1: gold medallion, some rap medallion. So he was being attacked.
- 30:05Speaker 1: Why does that matter under the law. Revenge as not
- 30:12Speaker 1: a defense to murder.
- 30:14Speaker 10: And let's look at his If you look at Sean
- 30:18Speaker 10: puvy Cohne's background, right, this is an nefarious, narcissistic guy
- 30:23Speaker 10: who got away with abusing women, doing all kinds of things.
- 30:27Speaker 10: It doesn't really matter, Nancy, although I could see they
- 30:32Speaker 10: find excuses, but they are looking to destroy each other.
- 30:36Speaker 10: Their competitive and it's not a professional organization where they
- 30:41Speaker 10: just do their best to do a good job. They
- 30:44Speaker 10: are angry. This is how they are going about their lives.
- 30:49Speaker 10: And I wouldn't be surprised if he ordered this hit.
- 30:52Speaker 10: They've been saying that for years. Let's just hope that
- 30:55Speaker 10: they actually get him and find something that brings him
- 30:59Speaker 10: to justice.
- 31:00Speaker 1: Okay, So, guys, earlier you were hearing how in the
- 31:04Speaker 1: middle of this bond hearing, a bail hearing Dwayne Davis's bail,
- 31:09Speaker 1: he interrupts the judge okay, to stop this from coming out.
- 31:16Speaker 11: Listen Clark County Prosecutor's opposition to Dwayne Davis's bail mentioned
- 31:21Speaker 11: Sean Combs nearly eighty times. They argue Davis should not
- 31:25Speaker 11: get bail because he admits he orchestrated Shakerz murder on
- 31:28Speaker 11: the promise of payment from Comb's. During a hearing, Davis
- 31:31Speaker 11: cuts off Judge Carly Kearny to argue his claims about
- 31:35Speaker 11: Diddy made during a two thousand and eight profer agreement
- 31:37Speaker 11: should not be allowed into evidence.
- 31:39Speaker 12: Now, Nova says, how for fifteen years is a doing
- 31:45Speaker 12: all kind of TV or news people.
- 31:49Speaker 1: A proper agreement. Dwayne Davis jumps up and starts interrupting
- 31:56Speaker 1: the judge. Okay, to you, Lauren Colin, what happened there
- 32:00Speaker 1: that was interesting?
- 32:00Speaker 5: Nancy, He was clearly very upset and very nervous at
- 32:04Speaker 5: what was about to happen.
- 32:06Speaker 1: Not only that, Nancy.
- 32:08Speaker 5: Cash Jones, who was an entertainment rapper had already said
- 32:13Speaker 5: I'm going to put up fifteen percent of your bail,
- 32:15Speaker 5: Dwayne Davis, and allegedly this was because he wanted once
- 32:19Speaker 5: Dwayne got out, he wanted him to be part of
- 32:22Speaker 5: this television series, this documentary, and the judge also was like,
- 32:25Speaker 5: wait a minute, wait a minute, no way, you're not
- 32:28Speaker 5: doing either. So PPD he realizes at this point he
- 32:32Speaker 5: is in a world of garbage.
- 32:40Speaker 2: Law enforcement says Diddy is not and never has been,
- 32:44Speaker 2: a suspect in the killing of Tupac.
- 32:48Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what they're saying. But in a one hundred
- 32:50Speaker 1: and seventy nine page filing, it's revealed that Dwayne Davis
- 32:56Speaker 1: confessed to Tupac's murder and implication Sean Puffy comes, so
- 33:03Speaker 1: are they going to rely on their own documents or
- 33:06Speaker 1: not listen?
- 33:07Speaker 14: Prosecutors? One hundred and seventy nine page filing reveals that
- 33:10Speaker 14: Dwayne Davis confessed to Tupac's murder ten years prior to
- 33:14Speaker 14: his public statements. Two thousand and eight, Davis is charged
- 33:17Speaker 14: for his participation in an LAPCP ring, facing twenty five
- 33:21Speaker 14: years in prison. The LAPD offers him a profit agreement
- 33:24Speaker 14: regarding the nineteen ninety six drive by shooting of Shakur,
- 33:28Speaker 14: Davis details the planning, attack and aftermath of the shooting
- 33:32Speaker 14: down to a confirmation call from Puffy, who allegedly asked,
- 33:35Speaker 14: was that US okay?
- 33:37Speaker 1: Did you hear that? To Shannon Henry joining US president
- 33:42Speaker 1: founder SASS surviving assault, standing strong reportedly after the hit.
- 33:49Speaker 1: After Tupac's been shot, it took him six days to die.
- 33:51Speaker 1: This happened in nineteen ninety six. According to Davis, there
- 33:57Speaker 1: was a confirmation call, a phone call from Sean Puffy
- 34:01Speaker 1: Combs after he hears Tupac's been hit, and he says, quote,
- 34:07Speaker 1: was that us, like somebody else has a hit. That's right,
- 34:11Speaker 1: that's right.
- 34:11Speaker 13: And I know this is all in line with how
- 34:15Speaker 13: he behaves, making sure that he's everything's being followed through
- 34:19Speaker 13: with making sure that the directives he gives are followed.
- 34:23Speaker 13: My fear is is that it's not what you know,
- 34:27Speaker 13: but what you can prove, and my hope is that
- 34:30Speaker 13: this ties him directly to what has happened to Tupac. Now,
- 34:34Speaker 13: my other fear is with all of this coming out,
- 34:37Speaker 13: that people are going to forget the history of Diddy
- 34:40Speaker 13: and what he's done, and that this distracts us from
- 34:43Speaker 13: the decades of violence and abuse. And I just pray
- 34:47Speaker 13: that this is corroborating evidence and that our victims will
- 34:50Speaker 13: finally see justice, all of them.
- 34:52Speaker 1: You know another thing, and you don't normally have this
- 34:55Speaker 1: to Robert Crispin and Darryl co when I think you
- 34:57Speaker 1: agree with me. You don't normally only get evidence on tape.
- 35:03Speaker 1: But guess what we've got it. Listen, oh quick, it's
- 35:09Speaker 1: not who brought up the amount of one million dollars.
- 35:14Speaker 6: H Puffy.
- 35:17Speaker 1: So Lauren and Colin joining me, investigative reporter. We are
- 35:21Speaker 1: actually hearing and this is all the way from two
- 35:24Speaker 1: thousand and eight. Two thousand and eight, you hear Davis
- 35:30Speaker 1: stating that Combs ordered the hit. Explain what we're hearing. Correct.
- 35:39Speaker 5: In two thousand and eight, he gave this interview stating
- 35:43Speaker 5: or kepd gave this interview stating that they were hanging
- 35:45Speaker 5: out in California, a group of people. They were in
- 35:48Speaker 5: a room and Puffy said he went by Puffy at
- 35:52Speaker 5: the time. I would give anything for Shove's head, he said,
- 35:57Speaker 5: Shug perhaps that Tupac as well. But we all know
- 36:01Speaker 5: what happened.
- 36:02Speaker 13: After that.
- 36:03Speaker 5: Now, KEVD also claimed that he never got the money. Nancy,
- 36:06Speaker 5: he never got this million dollar Eric zip Martin got
- 36:10Speaker 5: this money. This is very interesting as well.
- 36:13Speaker 1: Do I care if a hit man didn't get paid. No,
- 36:19Speaker 1: let's hear the interview again. Please.
- 36:22Speaker 6: He said kill anything when he'll do it.
- 36:25Speaker 1: He said it in front of all those people.
- 36:26Speaker 6: I'll go and leave it, old crips, we'll wipe it,
- 36:29Speaker 6: oh quick. You know, there's nothing who.
- 36:33Speaker 4: Brought up the amount of one million dollars?
- 36:39Speaker 1: Okay, let me stay. It's kind of it's kind of grainy,
- 36:43Speaker 1: he says. Quote. He said he'd give us anything for them.
- 36:47Speaker 1: Dude's head. He said it in front of all of
- 36:49Speaker 1: them people. I couldn't believe it. A whole room full
- 36:52Speaker 1: of crips. Will wipe their ass out quick. You know,
- 36:56Speaker 1: it's nothing question who brought the amount of one million dollars? Davis?
- 37:03Speaker 1: He did? Detective Puffy did Davis. Yeah, okay, listen to
- 37:08Speaker 1: the rest.
- 37:13Speaker 6: Here. You go.
- 37:16Speaker 7: Check your records where they will Biggy ever involved in
- 37:19Speaker 7: any of these conversations.
- 37:20Speaker 14: That you always just good.
- 37:24Speaker 1: This is okay, So, Lauren Collin, what are we hearing there?
- 37:28Speaker 5: We are hearing that keepd implicates Puffy and says, this
- 37:31Speaker 5: is all Puffy is doing, and listen, I believe it.
- 37:35Speaker 5: Do they really want us to think that keypd masterminded
- 37:38Speaker 5: this entire thing? I mean, do you hear him speak?
- 37:42Speaker 5: I for one completely believed that Puffy masterminded it, even
- 37:45Speaker 5: though he's not a suspect. But yeah, this this goes
- 37:48Speaker 5: back and this could be a big conspiracy.
- 37:51Speaker 1: To commit murder charge.
- 37:54Speaker 9: Sean didd Comb's legal team has been notified that he
- 37:57Speaker 9: is the subject of a federal investigation, and the notification
- 38:01Speaker 9: implies that Comb's is quote within the scope of an investigation,
- 38:05Speaker 9: but not a quote target. That designation can be upgraded
- 38:09Speaker 9: or downgraded as the investigation continues. A grand jury is
- 38:14Speaker 9: reportedly hearing evidence tied to the investigation, but there is
- 38:17Speaker 9: no indication that any charges are pending.
- 38:20Speaker 1: Similar to what Shannon Henry from SAS and Karen start
- 38:24Speaker 1: renown psychologists have stated, violence seemingly spills over into other
- 38:29Speaker 1: areas of Sempa becomes his life. Listen.
- 38:32Speaker 14: Vibe magazine editor in chief Danielle Smith has Comb's posen
- 38:36Speaker 14: angel Wings to go with the tagline the Good, the Bad,
- 38:39Speaker 14: and the Puffy for the cover of the December ninety
- 38:41Speaker 14: seven January ninety eight double issue. A few days before
- 38:44Speaker 14: the release, Combs insists on approving the cover. Vibe denies
- 38:49Speaker 14: his request, and Smith later receives a phone call from
- 38:51Speaker 14: Combs threatening to see her quote dead in the trunk
- 38:55Speaker 14: of a car. Her coworkers rush to hide Smith afraid
- 38:58Speaker 14: of what Diddy and his posse might do.
- 39:00Speaker 1: So let me understand this Sean Puffy comes. According to
- 39:06Speaker 1: this female magazine editor in chief at Vibe Magazine, Danielle Smith,
- 39:12Speaker 1: she sets up a cover sheet for him. He wants
- 39:15Speaker 1: to approve it. She says, no, we don't do that,
- 39:18Speaker 1: and he threatens that he will see her dead in
- 39:22Speaker 1: the trunk of a car. Okay, Karen Starr, what about it?
- 39:27Speaker 1: No surprise, Nancy.
- 39:28Speaker 10: This is his response to everything.
- 39:31Speaker 1: Think about it.
- 39:32Speaker 10: You do something wrong, you cross this path, and he
- 39:35Speaker 10: is going to say, Okay, you're ending up in this car.
- 39:39Speaker 10: You're ending up shot, you're ending up something, threatening people.
- 39:43Speaker 1: And he gets.
- 39:44Speaker 10: Away with it for years, along with abusing the women
- 39:48Speaker 10: because he's so charming. Everybody thinks he's so wonderful. But
- 39:53Speaker 10: not anymore. It's all catching up with him.
- 39:55Speaker 1: And of course, what a coinkydink. The next morning, the
- 39:58Speaker 1: Vibe office is trashed. Listen.
- 40:01Speaker 11: The next morning, staffers find the Vibe office broken into
- 40:04Speaker 11: and all of its servers stolen. The entire issue is gone.
- 40:08Speaker 11: Editors immediately suspect Combs and his bad boy crew are
