DALLAS, Texas — Following a closely watched multi-week trial at the Frank Crowley Criminal Courts Building, a Dallas County jury returned a guilty verdict on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, convicting prominent Dallas rapper Yella Beezy (Markies Deandre Conway) of capital murder. The verdict arrived exactly six years to the day after rival artist MO3 (Lennard Davis) was fatally gunned down during a daylight ambush along Interstate 35E in November 2020. Prosecutors successfully established that Conway orchestrated and financed the contract hit following longstanding musical and gang disputes.

Conway faces a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without parole under Texas law, bringing legal resolution to one of the metroplex’s most high-profile hip-hop violence cases.
