Yella Beezy Released From Jail On $750K – The R Report
Yella Beezy has been released from jail on $750k bond, where he was being held for an alleged murder-for-hire plot in the death of Mo3.
Five years after Mo3 (real name Melvin Noble Jr.) was shot and killed in his hometown of Dallas, Beezy was indicted over the fatal attack on March 20 following a grand jury verdict.
His bond was listed at $2 million, but according to CBS News, it was reduced to $750k during a bond hearing on Thursday (March 27) and he was able to bail out by paying 10 percent of it under Texas bail bond laws.
That same day, footage of the 2020 murder of Mo3 was released, showing the rapper being chased on foot on a highway in broad daylight.
Beezy’s lawyers tell TMZ that the prosecutor has entered the shooting video into evidence.
However, they added: “We look forward to fighting the case in court — Yella denies the charges.”
Yella Beezy, who is best known for the 2017 hit “That’s On Me,” is accused of “orchestrating” the killing and hiring someone to shoot his rival.
The 28-year-old was then shot several times, with the entire incident captured on nearby security cameras.
Two men have previously been arrested in connection with the murder. Kewon Dontrell White and Devin Maurice Brown were both indicted in 2021 on various charges over their alleged involvement.
The new indictment claims that Beezy hired White to commit the murder. White is currently serving a nine-year sentence on gun and drug charges related to the murder.
