Tupac’s stepbrother, Maurice Mopreme Shakur, raises doubts about P Diddy’s ‘truth’ following the rapper’s passing

Tupac Shakur’s stepbrother, Maurice Mopreme Shakur, expressed skepticism about Sean “Diddy” Combs’ assertion that he was not involved in the hip-hop icon’s murdеr in 1996.

During an interview with Piers Morgan Uncensored, the 57-year-old shared his doubts about Combs’ statements concerning Tupac’s dеath, noting that Diddy made this denial to the Los Angeles Times back in 2008.

Mopreme stated, “In my view, I don’t think that was a completely honest statement.” He continued, “So, we need to determine what’s true and what’s not—what’s real and what’s fake.”

The notorious drive-by shоoting that took Tupac’s life in Las Vegas occurred during an intense rivalry with Combs and Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.”

Recalling an encounter years after the incident, Mopreme mentioned that during a meeting arranged by DJ Big Boy, Combs insisted on his innocence, stating, “[He] basically said he had nothing to do with my brother’s murdеr.”

Mopreme responded, “I told him, ‘The truth has yet to emerge, so we’ll see what happens.’ Now, 27 or 28 years later, it seems there’s some doubt about that claim, along with all the other suspicions people have.”

When asked if he thought Combs was being dishonest, Mopreme replied, “Quite possibly, and it seems that way, in my opinion.”

Mopreme stated that there should be a renewed investigation into the allegations. Combs has consistently denied any involvement in Tupac’s 1996 murdеr and has never been charged in connection with the case.

Currently, P Diddy is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, facing charges of sеx trafficking, rackеteering, and transportation for prоstitution. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges and is scheduled to go on trial in May 2025.
