Rapper Yella Beezy accused of paying for Mo3’s killing – What really happened?

Dallas rapper Yella Beezy has been charged with capital murder for allegedly planning the 2020 killing of fellow rapper Mo3.

According NY post, the shocking development comes after a Dallas County grand jury formally indicted Yella Beezy earlier this week.

The 33-year-old rapper, whose real name is Markies Conway, is accused of hiring a hitman to kill Mo3, whose real name was Melvin Noble.

The fatal shooting took place on 11 November 2020, when Mo3 was gunned down on a Texas interstate. According to reports, Yella Beezy allegedly paid Kevin Dontrell White to carry out the attack.

Investigators say Mo3 was shot multiple times in the back while trying to escape from the masked gunman.

White, the alleged shooter, was arrested again last month and is already serving a nine-year sentence for firearm charges linked to the case.
