This week, it was revealed that West Coast gangster Keefe D had been working as an undercover informant for the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) to link Bad Boy Entertainment CEO, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, to the murder of Tupac Shakur. The news has sent shockwaves through the hip-hop community and the ongoing investigation into one of the most infamous cases in music history.
In a heated courtroom outburst, Keefe D lashed out, claiming his confessions were supposed to remain confidential. The Sun reports that Keefe directed his tirade towards Chief Deputy District Attorneys Marc DiGiacomo and Binu Palal. He expressed frustration over evidence from his own confessions to LAPD officers being referenced in court documents.
During the hearing, Keefe, referred to as “The Godfather of Compton” by his lawyer, Carl Arnold, targeted retired LAPD task force officer Greg Kading. Kading had been instrumental in obtaining Keefe’s taped confession, which originally protected him from prosecution under a “proffer deal.” This two-and-a-half-hour tape has been submitted as evidence by prosecutors.
Keefe’s frustration peaked when DiGiacomo mentioned a “box” of substantial evidence from the LAPD’s 2008 Biggie Smalls gang task force investigation, now being reviewed for potential use in Keefe’s prosecution. This prompted Keefe to address Judge Carli Kierny directly, bypassing his lawyer’s mediation.
Keefe accused Kading of keeping the evidence in his attic for 15 years, conducting TV interviews, and breaking the proffer agreement. He alleged the evidence was tainted and should be excluded, saying, “Them boxes should not be allowed…it is tainted evidence. The man broke a proffer agreement.”
Keefe also claimed that the prosecution had targeted his family, stating, “They crashed my family in this. They did my daughter first, then my son, and they just did my wife in the last papers.”
Judge Kierny, maintaining composure, explained that it was still uncertain which aspects of Kading’s evidence would be used by the state and that no motion had been filed to exclude the evidence. She concluded the session without rendering a decision, stating, “There are a couple of things I need to look at. I will let you guys know in the next day or two.”
Keefe’s rant ended the 45-minute court session on a tense note, leaving the future of the case and his potential early release hanging in the air.
