Yella Beezy Day 2 testimony focuses on crime scene photos

Testimony continues for a second day in the murder trial against Dallas rapper Yella Beezy. Prosecutors claim he paid a man to kill his rival rapper M03. He was shot and killed in an ambush on I-35 in 2020. The gunman, Kiwan White, was convicted of capital murder last month. Today's testimony included a surgeon struck in the crossfire of the shooting. He described seeing a man stop at his car and fire multiple shots. After that, he explained pulling over and trying to help the victim, later identified as Moe 3. Well, I then noticed that explosion. I noticed a bullet hole in my windshield. And so I sort of connected that, that's what happened was a bullet flew through my windshield. And I really, I think the first thing that went through my head was I thought that my life would probably end that day. I approached the victim and I started doing chest compressions and CPR. I noticed he was still breathing. They weren't normal breaths, and there was quite a bit of blood. I did notice he had multiple gunshot wounds, and so I did what I thought was best and tried to revive him as best as I could. The jury's also seen several photos of the crime scene and heard from investigators who responded to the scene. So far, the trial's focused on the shooting itself and not Conway's alleged payments to the hitman. Fox 4's Stephen Dial broke down some of the trial today on Dallas News Live. How long do you think the state will continue to lay this foundation before we start hearing the case more directed towards Yella Beezy and these alleged payments? I think it's going to be pretty soon because I've been watching the trial And you can see Toby Shook, he's not really asking too many questions, and that's part of his strategy. I mean, they're not disputing that Kiwan White killed Moe Three. That's not an issue in this case. It's whether Yella Beezy paid him. So they're not asking many questions, and it's going pretty quickly. It's going pretty smoothly. So I would think in the next day or two, by Friday, we're going to start getting into the meat of the case, and they're going to start trying to establish, maybe even sooner, this Yella Beezy-Moe Three beef, and that we're going to get more into the money that was exchanged and what Yella Beezy had to do with this murder. We don't know what's up the prosecution's sleeve. We'll have to see what they do in court. But it's harder to prove the money part, it sounds like, than the murder. It's going to be very difficult. And if you've watched the news recently, there was a little drug trial that happened last month. There was another one previously. Those cases were all murder for hire, and they've all been acquittals. And the reason it is because it's very difficult to establish that connection. You need some direct proof in just testimony from a witness. A lot of times it doesn't meet that threshold of beyond a reasonable doubt. A lot of times those witnesses have plea deals in place or they have a reason to lie. So the state really has to bring a lot of evidence in this case to establish that murder for hire. And so far, we haven't seen any evidence yet, but I'm looking forward to see what they plan on doing in this case. If Conway is found guilty, he could spend life in prison.
