(#6) Sean "P. Diddy" Combs Wanted Tupac Gone To Protect Himself
Some accused Sean "P. Diddy" Combs as the man behind Shakur's passing. Combs has always denied the allegations, but former LAPD cop Greg Kading said Diddy paid Crips gang member Duane Keith "Keffe D" Davis $1 million to off his arch-rivals, Knight and Shakur. The shooter was allegedly Keffe D's nephew, Orlando "Baby Lane" Anderson, who coincidentally got into a fight with Shakur hours before his end.
Why would Diddy want the Death Row team gone? In 1995, an associate of Knight's, "Big Jake" Robles, was fatally shot. Knight believed Diddy and his crew were responsible, and he wanted revenge. Allegedly afraid for his own safety, Combs was said to have hired men to take out Knight and Shakur to protect himself. Combs has denied there is any truth to these theories.
(#11) Aliens Abducted Tupac
A handful of Shakur fans have suggested the rap star was abducted by aliens. The extraterrestrials allegedly faked his passing and brought him to their planet, where he would live and rap for anywhere from 100 to 1,000 years. After living with the aliens, Shakur would be made immortal on Earth.
(#3) They Found The Fatal Tool Used, But The Feds Destroyed It For Suspicious Reasons
Adding fuel to the conspiracy theory fire, a 2017 docu-series revealed the fatal tool used in the Shakur case was discovered in a Compton backyard in 1998. The now-defunct Compton Police Department took the gun into evidence and handed it over to the LAPD after the department was dissolved.
In 2006, a deputy working on The Notorious B.I.G case discovered that the property where the evidence was found belonged to a girlfriend of a Crip gang member.
But the piece of evidence was never handed over to the Las Vegas Police Department. Why? According to documents obtained by the documentary crew, a federal prosecutor was worried it might alert potential conspirators. Very strange indeed.
(#1) Marion "Suge" Knight Put Out A Hit On Tupac Over Money
A 2002 documentary called Biggie & Tupac presented some interesting theories about Shakur's passing, including one that Knight ordered a hit on his superstar artist with whom he was having some monetary disputes. It claimed Shakur was planning to split from Death Row, and in retaliation, Knight wanted him taken out. Knight then had Biggie taken out in order to take suspicion off of himself for Shakur's case. Interestingly, Knight reportedly owned (or just took) Tupac's money.
Corroborating this suggestion was the late Jerry Heller, the controversial former manager of pioneering West Coast rap group N.W.A. Before his expiration, Heller claimed Knight “unquestionably put the hit out" on Shakur. Knight, who was riding beside Shakur in the car when the rapper was shot, allegedly pulled his friend in front of himself as a shield.
(#9) The FBI Or CIA Terminated Tupac In A Mission To Eliminate Rappers
During the 1990s, the FBI or CIA allegedly had a secret covert operation to eliminate black musicians, specifically those who were considered "socially conscious" artists pushing for police and government reform. They allegedly offed some of hip-hop's biggest stars, including Biggie and Shakur.
While the plot is a bit farfetched, it is true the FBI did closely monitor Tupac's mother, former Black Panther Afeni Shakur.
(#7) Suge Knight's Bodyguard And Ex-Wife Offed 'Pac
Suge Knight once indicated his ex-wife Sharitha Golden and his former head of security Reggie Wright Jr. could be behind Tupac's expiration. Apparently, the pair was actually trying to take out Knight but got Shakur instead. This was just one of the many attempts on Knight's life, the record boss claimed.
Why would Golden do this? Former LAPD cop Russell Poole noted she and Knihgt were still technically married at the time of Shakur's passing, so, if Knight passed, she'd inherit his money and control of profitable Death Row. Wright has denied the allegations, and Golden told TMZ, "When Tupac died, what did Death Row become after that? Zero. Nothing. A downfall.”
