Day 3 of the 2Pac trial: The state calls a former FBI agent from the federal task force that busted Keffe D on a wiretap in the late '90s for drug trafficking, and eventually got him to sign a proffer agreement to inform. In the statement – made in exchance for leniency – Keffe D claims to be running a multinational drug ring involving Puffy associate Eric "Von Zip" Martin in New York and a Colombian supplier named Primo. He boasts about having the South Side Compton drug trade "sewn up," and implicates Suge Knight as running the North Side — and later Reggie Wright Jr., after Suge got locked up. He says then-Compton Mayor Omar Bradley is on the take from Suge and Death Row. He also claims involvement in the initial transfer of money from Michael "Harry O" Harris to Suge that funded the startup of Death Row. He names most of the major players in the Compton drug trade, his own suppliers, and who he's selling to. On the murder of 2Pac, he claims to have had nothing to do with it, and suggests that some combination of Wright Jr. and Suge killed him for trying to leave the label. He admits to being in Vegas the night of the fight, but says he and Orlando Anderson never tried to get revenge because there was too much of a law enforcement presence on the Strip.
