Diddy is facing more legal problems. After Cassie Ventura sued him for sexual assault, new lawsuits emerged. Now, he’s linked to Tupac Shakur’s 1996 murder.
Despite suspicions, Diddy denies involvement. Recent court documents claim he paid $1 million for the assassination. The suspect, Duane “Keefe D” Davis, was arrested last year for the murder. It’s uncertain if Diddy will face subpoenas or charges in this case.
Diddy is mentioned 77 times in the papers filed on Thursday (July 18). He’s referred to by his various names: Puffy, Puff Daddy, Puff, and his real name, Sean Combs. The documents detail the rivalry between Bad Boy Records and Death Row Records.

The docs allege that after the shooting, Davis flew to New York with a Los Angeles police task force to go undercover in an effort to gather incriminating evidence against Diddy and Eric “Zip” Martin over the murder.
“Task Force Detectives believed they had jurisdiction to investigate a Nevada homicide because Defendant asserted that the conspiracy to commit the murder began in California between Defendant, Eric ‘Zip’ Martin, and Sean Combs,” the docs read in part. “Defendant [Keefe] has asserted publicly that he only told on himself and wasn’t trying to provide evidence against anyone else in his conversations with police. However, this statement belies this claim, as he suggested that Sean Combs paid Eric Von Martin a million dollars for the killings.”
