Was the decision unanimous? After a disturbance in the courtroom gallery, Yella Beezy's defense asks for the jurors to be polled. Each confirms the guilty verdict.
Law&Crime Trials' recording shows Judge Chika Anyiam reading the Dallas jury's decision finding Markies Conway, known as Yella Beezy, guilty of capital murder in the killing of fellow rapper Mo3, whose real name was Melvin Noble. As voices rise in the gallery, the judge and bailiffs call for calm.
Anyiam then explains that the conviction carries an automatic sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole. Deputies later handcuff Conway and escort him from the courtroom.
The upload puts the outcome first, then returns to the prosecution's earlier closing arguments. Prosecutors lay out their case that Conway arranged payment for Mo3's killing, using phone records, financial evidence and text messages to explain the alleged coordination.
The recording drew nearly 100,000 views in seven hours, already far beyond the channel's usual first-day audience for videos of this length. Its longer verdict-day broadcast also drew an unusually large audience.
For readers following the testimony, the shorter upload brings together the jury's decision, its individual confirmation and the prosecution's final account of the case.
Yella Beezy is the stage name of Markies Deandre Conway, a former rapper from Dallas. He was convicted of capital murder in Mo3's killing and sentenced to life in prison without parole.
