MO3 Trial: Detectives try to connect the dots, discuss alleged hitman Kewon White's arrest

MO3 Trial: Detectives try to connect the dots, discuss alleged hitman Kewon White's arrest

Prosecutors are continuing to build their case against Kewon White, the alleged hitman in a murder-for-hire plot involving rival Dallas rap artists.

Kewon White is accused of killing MO3, whose real name is Melvin Noble, in an ambush on Interstate 35 in Dallas in 2020.

Prosecutors allege that another rapper Yella Beezy, whose real name is Markies Conway, hired White to carry out the murder over a long-running feud.

Conway has pleaded not guilty to capital murder and denied involvement.

White is already serving time for an unrelated gun charge. He now faces capital murder for Noble’s death.

A third defendant, Devin Brown, is also charged with capital murder.

White’s trial is expected to last about two weeks. Trials for Conway and Brown should follow.
