Duane Davis Convicted in Tupac Murder — 1dClosing arguments are set to begin in Las Vegas in the 1996 Tupac Shakur murder case against Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, with prosecutors asserting he orchestrated the killing while his defense maintains his public statements were bravado and not corroborated. Across nine days of testimony, prosecutors highlighted Davis’s own interviews and memoir as key evidence, while the defense argues there is no hard corroborating evidence tying him to the crime or proving he was in Las Vegas that night.

Dana Whitfield Curious how the jury weighs public boasting against actual physical proof. Words matter, but they're not the same as hard evidence.

Lamerd strikes kill civilians, reports indicate — 1dAirwars and the Associated Press mapped the Lamerd strikes and found that US-made Precision Strike Missiles killed civilians up to 50 meters from detonation and caused damage far beyond that radius, prompting warnings from weapons experts that such missiles should not be used near populated areas. The US military has acknowledged using PrSMs in Iran but denies striking Lamerd, while analysts emphasize the weapon’s midair fragmentation and potential for widespread harm as production continues for broader use.

Tom Gallagher If the Pentagon is denying it hit Lamerd while also confirming PrSM use in Iran, someone's math isn't adding up.
