A conspiracy theorist claims to have reopened the mystery surrounding the death of rapper Tupac Shakur, claiming his autopsy report was faked. “The autopsy results say he was 6ft tall and he was 215lbs,” says the man. “But Tupac was 5ft 10ins maximum and 170lbs on his best day.” This has added to the lingering belief among some that the rapper never died. “It was Tupac's plan to fake his death,” insists the online speculator. Tupac Shakur was murdered in Las Vegas on September 13, 1996.
