By Miles Carter, November 12, 2026

A Dallas County jury on Wednesday, Nov 11, 2026, found Markies Conway, known as Yella Beezy, guilty of capital murder in the 2020 killing of Melvin Noble, known as MO3, FOX 4 reported. FOX 4 said the unanimous verdict came after about six hours of deliberation, on the sixth anniversary of the shooting, and that Conway was convicted of capital murder by remuneration and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Conway had pleaded not guilty, FOX 4 reported. Prosecutors said he hired Kewon White to carry out the killing. White was previously convicted of capital murder and sentenced to life without parole, according to the station. A third defendant, Devin Brown, is charged with capital murder and is still awaiting trial, FOX 4 reported.

The planned appeal

Defense attorney Toby Shook said he is already planning an appeal, FOX 4 reported. "We're going to keep fighting. We have excellent appellate points and that will be the next step in the fight," Shook told the station. CBS Texas also reported that Conway's defense attorney said he plans to appeal.

The verdict follows KAZI's earlier brief on the trial, when the state rested and a judge denied a defense motion.
