Duane "Keffe D" Davis, a former Compton gang leader and suspect in the murder of rap legend Tupac Shakur, can be heard discussing a "green light" order in a jailhouse call that prosecutors said showed he is a threat to witnesses in the case.
A green light is an authorization to kill, prosecutors alleged, while Davis' lawyers remain insistent they misunderstood the context of the conversation. "Duane's son was saying he heard there was a green light on Duane's family," his attorneys argued.

Their voices are mumbled in some parts of the audio, but the son went on to say, "They talking bout ... it is a greenlight on us ... talking about our side."
"Our side — there is a green light on our side?" Keffe asked to confirm. "Yeah that is what he had told me," his son responded.
"He said ... We was raised in war, we don't give a f---," the son continued.
"He is saying that it's on …," the son continued which garnered a dismissive reaction.
The son agreed with his response, noting the guy said, "Do you think we give a f--- about that? We are raised in this s---."
"I love you big dog. I am gonna tell you about it tomorrow. Good night big dog. I love you big dog," Davis Jr. said as they wrapped up the call.
While pleading for his release, Keffe D's legal team argued that he was not a danger to society nor a flight risk.
