History

Historical Context

In March 1997, Christopher Wallace was killed after leaving the Soul Train Awards, prompting LAPD detective Russell Poole to allege officer David Mack’s involvement and to submit his findings to chief Bernard Parks. Parks halted the probe, leading Poole to retire in late 1999 after handling over 135 homicide cases. The 2024 lawsuit by Mopreme Shakur revives those unresolved accusations against Duane “Keefe D” Davis and Sean Combs.
