Thirty years after Tupac was shot on the Las Vegas strip, a conviction has finally landed, and Eric Alper, former Death Row Records publicist, walks through why it took this long despite the shooter's own repeated public confessions.
Alper unpacks how many people over the years falsely claimed a role in the killing just to gain credibility in the scene, and why myths like this tend to outlast the actual legal facts once a name becomes bigger than the crime itself.
He also explains why this particular conviction hasn't dominated headlines the way an OJ-level case might have, and where he ranks Tupac among the greatest to ever pick up a microphone.
