The last thing the prosecution played for the jury was a phone call from the Clark County Detention Center. Duane Keffe D Davis on a recorded line said, I have blood on my money. That sounds like it would have been a good rap song back in the day. Isn't it? Blood on my money.
Could you just almost hear it? You know, maybe I'll make it with AI.
And then the prosecution arrested 25 witnesses, eight days, roughly eight hours of recordings from four separate sessions where Davis described his role in the murder of 2Pac Shakur.
The final thing the state wanted the jury to carry into the break was a man on a monitored phone saying his money has blood on it. Every inmate in Clark County knows the calls are recorded. Davis said it anyway. Day eight opened with two defense objections to clips the prosecution planned to play. Both were addressed outside the jury's presence. Both were apparently overruled. The clips made it to the jury. The prosecution called its 25th and final witness, Adam Stoehr, an electronic evidence specialist from the Clark County District Attorney's Office. Stoehr's job was technical. He authenticated and clipped the audio and video the state wanted the jury to hear on its last day. The first clip showed Davis in an interview discussing his book Compton Street Legend. He was asked a question and said he didn't want to talk about it. The second clip addressed his career. The prosecution played a YouTube video of Davis holding up his book and encouraging viewers to buy it. His pitch to the camera? Buy this to get the real truth. The defense's theory is that the book was fiction. It's just all invented for money. The prosecution's exhibit is the author on camera selling it as truth. The next clip set up the motive. Davis on camera said 2Pac was in the wrong when he jumped his nephew Orlando Anderson at the MGM Grand on September 7th, 1996 He called Anderson a kid. He said his nephew never jumped on 2Pac, but the attack was unprovoked. Prosecutors alleged the shooting hours later was retaliation for that brawl. Davis was telling the camera his side had a reason to act.
Sir was also played a clip of Reggie Wright Jr. From earlier in the trial, Wright, a former head of security for Death Row Records had testified about the events of that night. His testimony established the relationship between the Death Row Camp and the Southside Compton Crips. The world where these two groups collided and the prosecution shifted to the evidence that closed the case. The jail calls, multiple recordings from the Clark County Detention Center made after Davis' arrest in September of 2023 Every call from Clark County is recorded. A warning plays at the start of each one telling the inmate the conversation is being monitored and may be used in court proceedings. Davis had been in custody for nearly three years. He has heard that warning thousands of times. He is really good at not eating them. In one call Davis complained about his case. They are trying to use my words against me. He told the person on the other end he said he should have stopped doing interviews.
Shoulda woulda, Keffe. As Davis acknowledging from a jail phone that his recordings are the prosecution's entire case. He knows the proffer was a mistake. He knows the documentary and the book gave the state everything it needed, came from his own mouth and he's a little frustrated about it. In separate jailhouse interviews with a local television station, Davis went further. He claimed he was never in Las Vegas the night 2Pac was shot. He said he wasn't there. No car, nothing. That claim contradicts every recording the jury has ever heard, including the 2008 proffer where Davis placed himself at the front passenger seat of the white Cadillac and described providing a gun to his nephew in the back seat. Kind of not not there. In another jail call from the same facility on the same kind of recorded line, I have blood on my money. Ah, two calls from the same building. In one, Davis says the case against him is unfair. And the other, he tells someone his money has blood on it. The prosecution played them for the jury. And let the contradiction just kind of simmer. To sit in that room, you guys decide what this all means.
A man performing fiction for paychecks doesn't call someone from a detention center and say his money has blood on it. That sentence doesn't generate royalties. It doesn't land a deal. It's a man who knows where the money came from and what it cost and is speaking aloud and then maybe taking a step back and going, oh, shit, that's on tape. The prosecution's final exhibit is Davis saying the quiet part on a recorded line. He can't take it back. It is there.
