Rapper Yella Beezy, whose real name is Markies Conway, was arrested because police believe he was involved in the 2020 killing of rapper MO3 (real name Melvin Noble).
A grand jury (a group of people who decide if there is enough evidence for a trial) charged Yella Beezy with felony murder. This means they think he helped plan or arrange the killing. The police arrested him and took him to Dallas County Jail on Thursday after a warrant (official order) was issued for his arrest.
Why Was He Charged?
Authorities say that Yella Beezy hired another man, Kewon White, to kill MO3 in exchange for money. White allegedly shot and killed MO3 on a Dallas highway.
What Happened to Kewon White?
White was arrested a month after MO3’s death and is now serving 9 years in prison for gun-related charges linked to the murder.
