Yearly wrap up.
Former rapper is convicted of murdering a rapper. It was a murder for hire plot that involved a primary beef over music royalties.
Yella Beezy was convicted of murdering rival MO3. The 35 year old former rapper is now sentenced to LIFE in the iron college.
Known as Markies Conway, the former rapper was found guilty in the murder of Dallas rapper Melvin Noble, known as MO3.
Jury deliberations continued Wednesday morning in the murder trial of the man accused of plotting to kill MO3 in an alleged murder-for-hire scheme before reaching a verdict Wednesday afternoon.
After the verdict was read, Judge Chikya Anyiam handed down a life sentence without the possibility of parole.
Conway asked to kiss his young son, who also left the room in tears.
NBC 5 witnessed several people crying in the courtroom and was told that Conway fell out in the back hall once he was officially taken into custody.
"We really can't express the disappointment at the verdict. We're going to keep fighting. We have excellent appellate points, and that'll be the next step in the fight," defense attorney Toby Shook said.
During the previous two weeks of testimony, witnesses described a chaotic scene of gunfire on a Dallas freeway as prosecutors began presenting their case against Yella Beezy, who is accused of orchestrating the 2020 killing of fellow Dallas rapper MO3 in an alleged murder-for-hire plot.
Conway pleaded not guilty to capital murder in connection with the death of MO3.
Prosecutors allege Conway hired Kewon White to kill Noble following a feud between the two rappers that dated back to 2017. White was convicted of capital murder in September and sentenced to life in prison.
"I remember getting the call that day when Melvin was on the highway, and, I can't thank everybody enough for the support. And I know the family is just, forever grateful for everybody's hard work, you know, tireless effort to get a just verdict," Dallas County Assistant District Attorney Tommy Adams said.
Conway was arrested by Dallas County Texas in connection with felony capital murder-for-hire charges of rapper MO3 in the State of Texas vs. Conway, Markies (Case #F-25-00154).
A Dallas County grand jury would formally indict Conway on a murder charge which alleged that he hired a hitman to murder MO3, whose real name was Melvin Noble.
On September 4, 2026, a Dallas County jury found Kewon White, who was alleged to have been hired by Conway to carry out the murder of Noble, guilty of capital murder.
On November 11, 2026, Conway was found guilty of capital murder by a Dallas County jury in connection with the November 2020 killing of rapper MO3 (Melvin Noble). Prosecutors alleged that Conway hired Kewon White to carry out the killing, reportedly paying him $40,000.
