Besides numerous sexual assault lawsuits, Diddy is facing a potential murder case as Tupac Shakur's family is scrutinizing any links between the music mogul and late rapper's murder.

AceShowbiz - The family of the late rapper Tupac Shakur has hired powerhouse attorney Alex Spiro to pursue any potential links between Sean "P. Diddy" Combs and Shakur's murder. The investigation follows reports that gang member Duane Keith "Keffe D" Davis, who was charged with Shakur's murder in 2023, has made claims that Combs offered $1 million for a hit on the rapper.
The news of Spiro's involvement comes after the Shakur family hired a team of investigators to ascertain if Combs, the founder of Bad Boy Entertainment, had any involvement in the 1996 murder. Combs has vehemently denied any involvement in the past.
Spiro, a leading attorney in Hollywood, has represented high-profile clients such as Megan Thee Stallion, Jay-Z, Elon Musk, and Alec Baldwin. He recently secured a victory for Baldwin, whose involuntary manslaughter charges were dismissed by a New Mexico judge.
Combs is currently facing charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has also been accused of sexual assault and rape in multiple lawsuits.
Other rappers, including Marshall Mathers (Eminem), have joined the chorus of accusations against Combs, claiming that he was involved in both Shakur's murder and the subsequent killing of Christopher Wallace (The Notorious B.I.G.).
Despite the allegations, Combs has never been considered a suspect by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. A spokesperson for the department stated that "Combs has never been considered a suspect" in the homicide investigation.
The investigation by Shakur family's team will likely shed more light on the circumstances surrounding Shakur's murder. The case remains unsolved, and any possible connection between Combs and the crime could have significant implications for the ongoing investigations.
