Summary

The defense rested its case in the Dwayne Davis trial after calling three retired Las Vegas police officers. Testimony focused on a cream-colored Cadillac in Tupac’s entourage to challenge witness accounts and highlighted Detective Dan Long’s failed 2009 attempt to arrest Davis due to a proffer agreement. Davis did not testify, and his attorney Michael Samft expressed satisfaction with the brief presentation before closing arguments began.
