State rests in Yella Beezy murder-for-hire trial

The state rested today in the murder-for-hire trial of Dallas rapper Yella Beezy The rapper, whose real name is Marquise Conway, is accused of paying a hitman to kill rival rapper Moe 3. Dallas Police Detective Eric Barnes believes the convicted shooter, Kiwan White, was paid in part with jewelry. Whose necklace and whose rings those were and jewelry that Kiwan White was wearing that night. Based on my recollection, I think he asked if the jewelry belonged to Theodore Thomas. Okay, and based off your review of the records, is that here in 4451 and 4452, which is page four and five of 1230, that they actually belong to Yella Beezy? Yes. The defense has pushed back on some of Barnes' testimony and attempted to get the judge to throw out the case due to a lack of evidence. That motion was denied.
