t watching the witness, the attorneys, or the exhibits being displayed,  defense attorney Bree West said in part.

 I have had a plethora of trials and have seen one or two jurors doze off for a few minutes, especially after lunch. However, in those trials, the court took a small break, advised the juror to stand up and stretch, go get a Coke or a coffee, or released the jury early for the day. This matter was different because this wasn't just a few minutes of inattentiveness and alertness by that juror, but a few hours of continually on and off sleeping for several minutes with the juror clearly missing material evidence from material witnesses,  added co-defense attorney Myra McIntosh.

What we don't know:

It's not yet clear if or when Judge Anyiam will rule on the motion.

She has 75 days to issue a ruling. She could grant it, deny it, schedule a hearing to review the evidence, or simply let the deadline pass without taking any action.

MO3 Murder

The backstory:

Rapper MO3, whose legal name is Melvin Nobles, was shot 11 times and killed on Interstate 35 back in 2020. Prosecutors say the shooting was part of a murder-for-hire plot organized by rapper Yella Beezy, whose legal name is Markies Conway.

In September, jurors found White guilty of capital murder and sentenced him to life in prison after viewing video and hearing testimony about the shooting. Prosecutors also presented evidence of an alleged payment from Conway to White.

Conway has pleaded not guilty to capital murder and denied involvement. His trial was delayed by a month so that his lawyers could get a copy of White's trial transcript. The trial is now set to start on Oct. 26.

A third defendant, Devin Brown, is also charged with capital murder.
