Dallas Criminal Defense Attorney David Finn Appears on FOX 4 to Discuss MO3 Murder Trial

Former criminal court judge and federal prosecutor gives legal analysis on jury selection, plea negotiations and the high-profile Dallas murder-for-hire case.

DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, August 26, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Dallas criminal defense attorney David Finn recently joined FOX 4’s Steven Dial to provide legal analysis of the closely watched murder case surrounding the 2020 killing of Dallas rapper MO3.

David Finn, a former criminal court judge and federal prosecutor, appeared on FOX 4 as jury selection continued in the capital murder trial of Kewon White, the man prosecutors allege carried out the fatal shooting of MO3, whose legal name was Melvin Noble, on Interstate 35E in Dallas.

Prosecutors allege the killing was part of a murder-for-hire plot involving Dallas rapper Yella Beezy, whose legal name is Markies Conway. Conway has pleaded not guilty to capital murder and denies involvement in Noble’s death.

During his conversation with Dial, David Finn offered viewers insight into the legal strategy surrounding the case, including the importance of jury selection in a high-profile prosecution, the possibility of a plea agreement involving White, and how developments in White’s case could potentially affect the prosecution of Conway and the other defendants.

The case presents several issues familiar to experienced criminal trial attorneys: extensive pretrial publicity, multiple defendants, potential cooperating witnesses and evidence that could affect the strategy of both prosecutors and defense attorneys as the individual cases move forward.

David Finn’s perspective draws from experience on several sides of the criminal justice system. Before entering private criminal defense practice, he served as an assistant district attorney, a federal prosecutor and an elected Dallas criminal court judge. David Finn is also Board Certified in Criminal Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.

As a judge, David Finn presided over hundreds of criminal jury trials. As a defense attorney, he has handled thousands of criminal matters and hundreds of jury trials involving both state and federal charges.

That combination of experience has made David Finn a frequent source of legal analysis for media outlets covering complex and high-profile criminal cases. The FOX 4 interview came as attorneys worked to select 12 jurors from a pool of prospective jurors in White’s case. White is the first of three defendants expected to face trial in connection with Noble’s death. Prosecutors contend that Conway orchestrated the killing and hired White to carry it out. A third defendant, Devin Brown, has also been charged with capital murder.

The proceedings have attracted significant attention in Dallas and beyond because of the prominence of the artists involved, the circumstances of MO3’s killing and the prosecution’s allegations of a broader murder-for-hire conspiracy.

David Finn’s appearance focused on helping viewers understand what happens behind the headlines as attorneys evaluate jurors, weigh potential plea agreements and make decisions that could have consequences for multiple defendants in a major criminal prosecution.
