Rapper Tupac Shakur attends a voter registration event in South Central Los Angeles, Aug. 15, 1996. A Nevada judge is being asked to decide Tuesday, June 25, 2024, if a former Los Angeles-area

Tupac Shakur’s family is reportedly considering filing a wrongful death lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs as they investigate potential connections to the iconic rapper's tragic death in 1996. Recent developments have surfaced suggesting that Combs may have orchestrated a hit on Shakur, with sources revealing that individuals from Combs' past are providing information to Shakur's family.

The family has engaged high-profile attorney Alex Spiro, known for representing celebrities like Elon Musk and Megan Thee Stallion, to investigate the matter. The interest in pursuing legal action against Combs was reignited following statements made by former gang leader Duane “Keefe D” Davis, who alleged that Combs paid $1 million to have Shakur killed.

Despite these allegations, Combs' representatives and legal team have not responded to requests for comment on the matter. This is not the first time such claims have been made, as in the past, Combs was suspected of involvement in Shakur's murder, though these claims were deemed baseless and without merit.

The ongoing speculation surrounding Combs' potential ties to Shakur's death is further fueled by the East Coast-West Coast rap rivalry that was prevalent during that era.

While there is no current investigation or new information linking Combs to Shakur's murder, the possibility of a lawsuit from Shakur's family looms. Combs, who is facing other legal challenges including sexual misconduct lawsuits and an ongoing federal investigation, has denied all allegations against him.
