Jasmine Guy & Tupac Shakur. Clinton Correctional Facility, 1995. Jasmine’s friendship with Tupac was unknown to their celebrity associates. During Pac’s 1994 trial, she housed him and that’s where Afeni and close family would visit him.
Dear Mama - the Tupac documentary on Hulu is GREAT. Highly recommend.
