Who killed American rapper and actor Tupac Shakur?

1. A gang member killed Tupac.

• According to a LAPD source, Knight was a prominent member of the Los Angeles gang Mob Piru, which was in a rivalry with the Compton Crips. The source revealed to PEOPLE that when Shakur marked with Knight's label, he marked himself up as a foe of the Crips.
• Earlier on the day of the shooting, Shakur had gotten into an altercation with Crips member Orlando Anderson. "It was straightforward retaliation: you upset one of our own, we will disturb one of yours."
• According to Vice, Anderson was without a doubt a primary suspect in Shakur's murder, however police couldn't discover enough confirmation to prosecute him, and a few years later Anderson was also shot and killed.

2. P. Diddy killed Tupac.

• Okay, so nobody thinks P. Diddy (or Sean Combs, or Puff Daddy, or whatever it is he's known as nowadays) actually pulled the trigger. Be that as it may, on the off chance that you ask author and previous LAPD criminologist Greg Kading, the music head honcho played a key part in Shakur's death.
• According to Kading's book Murder Rap, Diddy enlisted Crips member Keffe D for $1 million to take out both Shakur and Knight. LA Weekly reports that Keffe D revealed on tape, "[Combs] took me downstairs and he resembles, 'Man, I want to dispose of them fellows.' ... I resembled, 'We'll wipe their ass out, snappy.
• It's nothing.' ... We wanted a million." In the admission, Keffe D apparently reveals that he was the passenger in the Cadillac that moved up on Shakur and Knight while his nephew Orlando Anderson (yes, the same Anderson in the above hypothesis) "leaned over, and...rolled down the window and popped him."

3. Suge Knight says Tupac is still alive.

• In that same TMZ video where Knight references Diddy's alleged association with the September 1996 shooting, Knight asks why nobody has ever gone down for Shakur's murder. "Because," he answers, "Tupac not dead."
• What? In the event that anyone would know the reality of the situation, it's Knight. He was in the car the evening of the shooting (and even sustained his very own few wounds). Yet at the same time, he says, "in the event that he was dead, they'd be arresting these fellows for murder."
