Tupac murder suspect Duane “Keefe D” Davis claims he was beaten to within an inch of his life by prison guards, and now he plans to sue. Davis first made the claims that guards at the Clark County, Nevada Detention Center “brutally beat me up” at a trial readiness hearing in August. Now the former Compton gang member has asked his lawyer to file a civil suit on his behalf. The prison’s police and guards have denied Davis’ claims, while the judge presiding over his murder trial urged him to file a formal complaint on the “very serious allegations.” The Sun reported that his lawyer said they are “biding our time on that one.” He added, “It did happen. But that is more of a civil matter. We will deal with that in due time.” In media appearances, boasting that his father is doing quite well in prison, Davis’ son, Duane Davis Jr., inadvertently refuted his claims of being attacked. “Nobody touched him. No, he didn’t get beat up by anybody,” he said. “I know a lot of people claim that he got beat up three, four times. That was bulls--t.”
