“Jam was killing his community and robbing at will,” Meek wrote on X, before taking aim at Jam’s decision to cooperate against someone he says he still cares about. Meek called him “the definition of a heathen” and added, “I wouldn’t believe a word he says.”

The post arrived after particularly complicated testimony from Jam, whose real name is Kacey Hester. Jam told jurors Thursday (August 27) that he still has “a lot of love” for Durk and feels bad about testifying against him, but said he no longer respects the rapper. “I know he probably hate me,” he said in court. His cooperation began after his own 2023 gun arrest, when he reached out to authorities and indicated that he had information about murders.

A Detailed Testimony

Jam has not presented himself to the jury as an uninvolved observer. He has admitted his own participation in violent crimes and pleaded guilty in connection with the August 2022 attack that killed Saviay’a “Lul Pab” Robinson. On the stand, he identified Durk as a participant in the alleged plot to kill Quando Rondo and testified that the rapper wanted retaliation after King Von’s death. Quando survived the Los Angeles shooting. Robinson, his cousin, was killed.

That history makes Jam’s credibility one of the central fights of the trial. Prosecutors are asking jurors to believe cooperating witnesses who admit they were part of the alleged conspiracy, while Durk’s attorneys have emphasized that those same men could benefit from helping the government. During opening statements, the defense argued that Durk had nothing to do with the shooting and accused cooperating witness Kavon “OTF Vonnie” Grant of organizing the plot himself. Jam, Grant and Keith Jones have all pleaded guilty and agreed to testify for prosecutors.

Durk has pleaded not guilty to the federal charges against him. Prosecutors allege he financed the attempt on Quando Rondo’s life as retaliation for King Von’s 2020 killing, while his defense maintains that the cooperating witnesses are shifting responsibility toward the most famous defendant in the case.

Davis had been told Wednesday that he needed to decide whether to exercise his right to testify after prosecutors finished presenting their case. That question carried unusual weight because so much of the state’s evidence came from Davis himself. Jurors have spent the trial hearing his past descriptions of the September 1996 shooting through recorded interviews and other statements, while defense attorney Michael Sanft has maintained that his client exaggerated his involvement for attention and money. By resting Thursday without calling Davis, the defense chose to let that argument stand without subjecting him to cross-examination, reports AP News.

A Trial That Has Divided Hip Hop

Sanft spent the defense’s brief presentation returning to gaps in the decades-old investigation. Two former officers testified about working near Suge Knight’s Las Vegas home on the night Shakur was shot. They recalled vehicles moving through the area, including a cream or white Cadillac. The defense then called retired homicide detective Dan Long, who investigated Shakur’s death and interviewed Davis years later.

Under questioning from prosecutors, Long said Davis identified the same four men investigators had already believed were inside the Cadillac when Shakur was shot. Long also testified that after speaking with Davis in 2009, he returned to Vegas believing there was enough evidence to seek a murder warrant. Prosecutors at the time told him not to proceed while the matter was under review.

Prosecutors rested Wednesday after calling roughly two dozen witnesses. Their case portrayed Shakur’s killing as retaliation for the MGM Grand fight in which the rapper and others attacked Orlando Anderson, Davis’s nephew. The state contends Davis helped arrange the response and supplied the gun later used when a Cadillac pulled alongside the BMW carrying Shakur and Knight. Davis has pleaded not guilty and denies participating in the murder.

After nine days of testimony, both sides are now finished presenting evidence. Jurors are scheduled to return Monday morning for closing arguments and will begin deliberating afterward. Davis faces life in prison if convicted.

Her legal team is also making a broader argument about what allowing the case to continue could mean for people who speak publicly about sexual abuse. “It is precisely baseless and harassing lawsuits like Mr. Howard’s that disincentivize actual victims of sexual abuse from coming forward or testifying truthfully as government witnesses,” attorney Douglas Wigdor said in the latest filing, according to AllHipHop.

Howard, a former male escort who says he participated in sexual encounters involving Cassie and Sean “Diddy” Combs for years, first sued the pair in 2025. He alleges that he was trafficked and sexually exploited after Cassie contacted him for paid encounters beginning around 2009. His complaint accuses Combs of watching and directing the sessions and alleges that security personnel sometimes took Howard’s phone, identification, and clothing. Howard also claims that Cassie arranged travel and helped keep him involved by offering money and other benefits. He is seeking $35 million in damages.

Cassie Has Denied Howard’s Allegations

Cassie’s attorneys contend that Howard’s own account makes it difficult to cast her as the person controlling those encounters. His complaint repeatedly describes Combs as directing the sessions and determining when they ended. It also recounts violence Combs allegedly inflicted on the singer, including an alleged December 2016 incident in Miami, and incorporates accounts from another escort who said he witnessed Combs abusing her. Cassie’s lawyers argue those allegations describe someone operating under Combs’ control rather than independently running a trafficking operation.

The filing separately challenges Howard’s accusation that Cassie knowingly exposed him to chlamydia during a May 2016 encounter. Howard points in part to testimony Cassie gave during Combs’ federal criminal trial about health problems she experienced during their relationship. Her attorneys argue he conflates urinary tract infections with sexually transmitted infections and has not alleged facts showing Cassie knew she had chlamydia when the encounter occurred. They also dispute his attempt to use a later reference to a chlamydia scare as proof of what she knew months earlier.

Howard’s allegations against Cassie have already run into trouble with U.S. District Judge Anne Hwang. The court dismissed every claim against her in July but allowed Howard another opportunity to amend his complaint. He filed a fifth amended version on August 3, preserving claims under federal and state trafficking laws along with sexual assault allegations. Hwang previously found that Howard had not identified a timely incident involving Cassie that exceeded conduct to which he had agreed.

Cassie’s role in Combs’ criminal prosecution sits behind much of her attorneys’ argument about the consequences of Howard’s lawsuit. She was a central government witness during the 2025 trial and testified extensively about abuse and the sexual encounters Combs called “freak-offs.” A jury ultimately acquitted Combs of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking but convicted him on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution under the Mann Act.

Howard’s lawsuit is a separate civil proceeding, and none of his accusations against Cassie have been proven in court. Her latest motion asks the judge to prevent him from filing another amended complaint if the remaining claims against her are dismissed. A hearing on that request is scheduled for October 21.

According to CBS Sacramento, the crash happened shortly after 6 a.m. on southbound I-5 near County Road 95 in Yolo County. California Highway Patrol officials said the truck drifted onto the shoulder before the driver apparently attempted to steer back onto the freeway and lost control. The vehicle overturned and blocked both southbound lanes.

Emergency crews extricated the driver, and a medical helicopter was initially requested. CHP later confirmed that the driver, who was the only person inside the truck, died from their injuries. Their identity has not been publicly released. Furthermore, investigators have not determined the cause of the driver’s departure from the roadway. CHP Sgt. David Barker told CBS that authorities are considering several possibilities, including distraction or the driver falling asleep, but stressed that the cause remains unknown.

A representative for J. Cole confirmed that the truck was carrying equipment for Thursday’s stop on The Fall-Off Tour. Cole performed in Seattle on Tuesday before the tour headed south to Sacramento. The current run supports The Fall-Off, his seventh studio album, and marks his first solo headlining tour in five years.

Despite the loss of equipment involved in the crash, Cole’s representative told CBS that Thursday night’s Golden 1 Center concert is expected to proceed as scheduled. The venue continued to list the show for 8 p.m. as of Thursday afternoon. However, CBS Sacramento later reported that the show had been canceled. CHP continues to investigate the crash.

“It was never MO3 at home because it wasn’t about rap at home,” Noble testified, according to AllHipHop. To his relatives, she said, he was still Melvin or “Bubba.” She remembered him as the person who could change the mood when someone was having a bad day. “He was…just my baby. He was my baby.”

Her testimony came as prosecutors began presenting their case against White, who is the first defendant to face a jury in the alleged murder-for-hire plot surrounding MO3’s November 2020 killing. Prosecutors allege he tracked MO3, whose legal name was Melvin Noble, before chasing him on foot along Interstate 35E and fatally shooting him. Yella Beezy, born Markies Conway, is separately accused of hiring White to carry out the killing, while Devin Brown is accused of helping coordinate the attack. All three men have pleaded not guilty.

The Case Against Kewon White

The state opened its case by portraying White as the gunman in a planned attack rather than a spontaneous highway confrontation. Dallas County prosecutor Tommy Adams told jurors there was “a hitman on the highway” and identified White as that person. Defense attorney Myra McIntosh countered that prosecutors are asking jurors to fill gaps in their evidence rather than proving their theory beyond a reasonable doubt. KERA reported on the competing opening statements.

Moreover, several witnesses have already taken jurors back to the highway where MO3 was killed. Neurosurgeon Randall Graham testified that he saw an armed, masked man chasing another man and later attempted to give Noble CPR. Retired Dallas County medical examiner Jeffrey Barnard testified that Noble suffered 13 rifle wounds. Jurors have also heard from Jocylynn Jackson, who was dating MO3 at the time and shares children with Brown. She testified that MO3 had left her home shortly before he was killed and said the timing struck her as suspicious.

Those witnesses are helping prosecutors reconstruct the mechanics of the shooting. Noble’s mother gave the jury something different. Her testimony briefly shifted the case away from surveillance footage and forensic evidence to the person whose death sits at the center of every allegation being argued in court.

Meanwhile, White’s trial is expected to last roughly two weeks. He is being tried separately from Conway and Brown, whose cases remain pending.

Warren G’s inclusion reaches back before Snoop became a Death Row star. He formed 213 with Snoop and Nate Dogg in Long Beach, then helped connect Snoop with his stepbrother Dr. Dre. That relationship eventually put Snoop on Dre’s “Deep Cover” and The Chronic before his own debut, Doggystyle, arrived in 1993. Smith already has some experience playing musicians on screen after portraying Ralph Tresvant in BET’s The New Edition Story. He later appeared in Detroit, Judas and the Black Messiah, and HBO’s Euphoria.

Hale’s Suge Knight represents a very different part of that ascent. As Death Row Records’ intimidating co-founder, Knight became central to the label where Snoop made his name alongside Dre. Snoop eventually left Death Row for No Limit Records in 1998, years before returning to the brand from an entirely different position. He acquired Death Row Records in 2022, making a film about his complicated history with the company under his own production umbrella a particularly full-circle development.

Other Names Joining The Cast

The expanding cast gives a clearer indication of how much attention Snoop may devote to the relationships surrounding his early career, even though Universal has not released a detailed plot. Myles Bullock Be will portray Dr. Dre, while Camron Jones has been cast as Tupac Shakur. Lauren London will play Snoop’s late mother, Beverly Tate.

Craig Brewer is directing from his rewrite of an original script by Joe Robert Cole. Snoop is producing alongside Death Row Pictures president Sara Ramaker and Imagine Entertainment’s Brian Grazer, with the film incorporating music from his catalog. Universal describes Snoop as the first project under Death Row Pictures’ overall deal with NBCUniversal Entertainment & Studios.

Production is expected to begin around Los Angeles in mid-September. Snoop is scheduled to hit theaters August 6, 2027.
