A trial has begun for one of three men accused of plotting to kill a rapper in an alleged murder-for-hire scheme. Kewon White is the first to stand trial, charged with murder for allegedly shooting and killing the victim, Melvin Noble, in 2020. Two other men, Markies Conway and Devin Brown, are also accused in the case.

All three have pleaded not guilty. The case involves high-profile individuals and a notable legal issue regarding the use of rap lyrics as evidence. Further details about the trial and the allegations against the three men are available.

The trial is being closely followed due to the national attention it has received.
