Yahoo21-03-2025
Curious about why Dallas rapper is back in the headlines? The recent capital murder charge against him has reignited public attention surrounding the 2020 killing of fellow rapper Mo3. Authorities allege Beezy orchestrated a murder-for-hire plot that led to the fatal highway shooting in broad daylight.
Let's take a closer look at the case details, who was involved, and how investigators connected the dots leading to this major indictment.
Dallas police arrested rapper Markies Deandre Conway, known as Yella Beezy, and charged him with capital murder in connection to the 2020 killing of rapper Melvin Noble, known as Mo3.

On November 11, 2020, a masked gunman shot and killed Mo3 in broad daylight on Interstate 35E in Dallas. Police reported that Mo3 exited his car and ran on foot before the gunman chased and shot him multiple times. Traffic cameras captured the incident, and footage quickly circulated.
According to the indictment, Conway hired Kewon Dontrell White to carry out the killing. 'Pursuant to said agreement, Kewon White did then and there intentionally and knowingly cause the death of (Noble) by shooting (him) with (a) firearm,' the indictment states, per USA Today. Authorities arrested White a month after the shooting, and he is currently serving a nine-year prison sentence for gun charges.
A grand jury indicted a second man, Devin Maurice Brown, in connection with the killing. Investigators used phone records and surveillance data to place both suspects near the murder scene before the shooting. Federal authorities later indicted Brown on drug and weapons charges after they found a stolen AK-47, drugs, and cash in his home.
Officers took Yella Beezy into custody and booked him into the Dallas County Jail on March 20, 2025. Officials have not set his bond. The capital murder charge makes him eligible for the death penalty.
In 2021, police arrested Beezy on unrelated charges, including unlawful possession of a firearm and sexual assault stemming from a separate incident.

'Wait, what?': Judge delivers wrong verdict to man on trial in deputy's death

A Georgia judge mistakenly delivered a guilty verdict this week, confusing the courtroom with his announcement. Alton Oliver, 26, went to trial last week on charges in connection with the 2022 fatal shooting of Fulton County Sheriff's Office Deputy James Thomas Jr. Thomas, who was 24, was found dead in a crashed vehicle. Oliver was charged with six criminal counts, officials said, including three counts of murder. On Aug. 15, he was found not guilty and cleared of all charges by a jury of his peers, Judge Henry Newkirk announced. According to 11Alive and Fox 5 Atlanta, Oliver testified he shot Thomas Jr. in self-defense after the deputy propositioned him to get into his vehicle for sex multiple times as he walked home from work at about 4:30 a.m. Oliver's attorneys claimed self-defense throughout the trial, as prosecutors argued his account of events was inconsistent, noting he did not mention any sexual advances when first questioned by police, Fox 5 Atlanta reported. The jury found Oliver not guilty, but Newkirk initially announced a guilty verdict on all six counts. Shortly after, at least two members of the jury were heard saying from the jury box, "Wait, what?" The judge paused, footage from the trial shows, then he reread the verdict. Watch: Hurricane Erin waves slam into North Carolina homes 'Didn't I say 'not'?' Before realizing the mistake, the judge responded, 'Didn't I say 'not'?' He then reread the correct statement, acquitting Oliver of all six criminal charges. "We the jury find the defendant not guilty of all counts," the judge said after correcting himself.

A Mississippi native, Thomas Jr. served with the sheriff's office for less than a year, Sheriff Patrick Labat said in a statement after the shooting. "Deputy Thomas served Fulton County residents with honor and distinction," the sheriff said. "His death is a tragic reminder of the dangers of this job that our deputies are willing to accept every day." According to a GoFundMe created by Briana Lampkin of Dallas, Thomas' dream had been to become a law enforcement officer. "He did just that; followed and lived vividly through his dream guided with love, integrity, and passion," Lampkin wrote on the fundraiser page. "Please keep our family in your prayers and we thank you for continuing to honor (him)." USA TODAY contacted the sheriff's office and Lampkin on Wednesday, Aug. 20, but has not received a response.

State officials searching for motive New Hampshire Assistant Attorney General Ben Agati told WCVB that investigators currently have more questions than answers.

Emmanuel Haro disappearance: Police seize father's car in search for missing 7-month-old

Police in California have seized a car belonging to the father of a missing 7-month-old as they investigate the baby's disappearance. The car, which belongs to Emmanuel Haro's father Jake Haro, was "collected for evidence processing," Mara Rodriguez, public information officer for the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department (SBCSD), confirmed to USA TODAY on Aug. 20. "Investigators have not ruled out anyone's involvement and are following up on all leads and tips," Rodriguez said. SBCSD said in a release on Aug. 20 that Jake Haro has retained an attorney, but detectives would still "welcome their cooperation as we continue efforts to locate Emmanuel." Rebecca Haro, Emmanuel's mother, said he was kidnapped outside a retail store in Yucaipa, California, on Aug. 14 before 8 p.m. local time, according to a release from SBCSD. However, police said they found "inconsistencies" in Rebecca Haro's statements and have not ruled out foul play. Possible sighting of missing infant reported, police say Rodriguez confirmed to USA TODAY on Aug. 20 that investigators have received a report of a possible sighting of the infant. The sighting was in Kern County, but no information as to where in the area has been provided to investigators, Rodriguez said. In an update shortly after 2 p.m. ET on Aug. 20, SBCSD said "investigators have followed up on the reported sightings" but Emmanuel Haro has not been located. Kern County is about 180 miles north of the San Bernardino area, including Yucaipa, where Haro was last seen. Cabazon, where Haro is from, is about 20 more miles away from Yucaipa. What happened to 7-month-old Emmanuel Haro? Mother said he was kidnapped Rebecca Haro told news outlets, including KCAL and KTLA, that the family was in Yucaipa for another child's football practice. She said she went to a sporting goods store to buy a mouthguard for her other child when she realized her infant's diaper needed to be changed. She said she was changing her son's diaper outside her car when a man assaulted her and knocked her unconscious. When she regained consciousness, the infant was gone, Rebecca Haro told police. In interviews with local TV stations, Rebecca Haro appeared with a black eye, which she said she got from the assault. "I took him out of the car seat and laid him on the chair. I had his diapers right here, and someone said, 'Hola.' I couldn't even turn. I don't remember nothing," Rebecca Haro told the outlets. USA TODAY has been unable to reach Rebecca and Jake Haro for comment. Police continue to investigate baby's disappearance. Here's what has happened so far. Investigators said in an Aug. 18 update they have "conducted extensive searches" in both Yucaipa and Cabazon. "Investigators have served several search warrants at the Haro home and utilized K9s to aid in the investigation," SBCSD said in a release. Officials also said they are reviewing surveillance video from areas of interest. On Aug. 16, SBCSD said in a release that investigators have not ruled out foul play in Emmanuel's disappearance. Multiple people, including Rebecca and Jake Haro, sat for interviews with investigators. "During those interviews, Rebecca was confronted with inconsistencies in her initial statement and declined to continue with the interview," the sheriff's department said in the release. Emmanuel Haro was last seen wearing a black Nike onesie. He is about 24 inches tall, has brown hair and brown eyes and is cross-eyed, according to police. Anyone with information should call Sheriff's Dispatch at 909-387-3545. Melina Khan is a national trending reporter for USA TODAY. She can be reached at
