Duane “Keefe D” Davis, who is facing murder charges for the killing of 2Pac, says his health is deteriorating due to the conditions in jail. During a court hearing on Tuesday, Keefe D, aided by Wack 100, tried to secure his release on bond, citing his worsening cancer. He stated, “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 further elaborated on the lack of adequate medical care, explaining that he was taken to the hospital on May 5 for emergency surgery and was referred to his cancer doctor. He was promised a colonoscopy and CT scans within weeks, but nothing had been done. He pleaded, “I’m in a life situation and I will do anything to save my life.”
Despite raising the $750,000 bond with the help of Wack 100, the judge denied the request, questioning the source of the funds. He criticized the inadequate medical care, recounting his experience of being taken for emergency surgery and the lack of follow-up. “They referred me to my cancer doctor so I went and seen him on May 8 and he said, ‘I’ll get you to do a colonoscopy in a week, CT scan in two weeks, CT scan in three weeks.’ They haven’t came here to do nothing. I’m in a life situation and I will do anything to save my life.”
Keefe D’s legal team had previously highlighted issues with his diet and medical care in jail. 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 expressed doubts about the bond money’s origin and delayed the decision, 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.
