Tupac Shakur murder suspect Keefe D reportedly went undercover to try to implicate Diddy in Tupac's murder.
Keefe D tries to implicate Diddy in Tupac's death
On Wednesday (July 24), legal filings obtained by Nebraska's KFXL show that prosecutors allege Keefe D once went undercover and flew to New York with Los Angeles detectives in 2009. The reason was to try to get evidence linking Diddy and Harlem gangster Eric “Von Zip” Martin to 2Pac's murder. Prosecutors allege Keefe became an “active confidential informant” for a designated task force after the former Compton con man was caught dealing drugs. The task force was originally created to investigate the murder of The Notorious BIG
Keefe D apparently interacted with Martin “in an undercover capacity” during his time in New York. The documents allege that Keefe got into a car with Martin's sister and nephew, where he then allegedly “attempted to recruit Mr. Martin in an attempt to traffic drugs.”
“Mr. Martin indicated that he was out of business but directed him to conduct his drug operations with his nephew,” the document said.
Keefe also claimed in police interviews that Puff offered him $1 million to kill Suge Knight and Pac during the height of Bad Boy's feud with Death Row Records. Keefe said Diddy paid him half the money after Pac was killed in 1996. Diddy reportedly sought the hit because he was “scared” of the California rapper after a diss track Pac released targeting Puff. This track is likely the legendary “Hit 'Em Up”, although it is not named in the documents.
Police interviews with Keefe D show the former Compton thug expressing his regret at ever meeting the Bad Boy mogul.
“I wish I never met Puff Daddy, period. I swear to God,” Keefe was quoted as saying. “You messed up my life, man. I was, I was rich, under the radar, all that, man… it's all gone.”
XXL reached out to Diddy's team for further comment.

Keefe D loses his temper in court
This story comes after Keefe D lost his temper in court on Wednesday (July 24), alleging that former Los Angeles Detective Greg Canting had falsified new evidence presented in the case. Keefe D's hearing was about whether or not he would be allowed to bond from prison.
“Greg Canting had boxes of them at home for 15 years in his attic doing all kinds of TV interviews,” Keefe said. “Their boxes should not be allowed… they are contaminated evidence. The man broke a supply agreement!'
Kading is the person who recorded Keefe D's murder confession, where Keefe first revealed the conversation involving Diddy's payment.
As for Diddy, his rumored involvement in Pac's murder has been a widespread conspiracy theory that has been floating around the case for years. It is not yet known if Diddy, who is currently embroiled in numerous sexual assault accusations and lawsuits, will be called in the ongoing Keefe D case. Diddy has previously denied any involvement in Pac's murder.
