HITCO & CONWAY'S CALIFORNIA TRIPS

Scott's 30+ years in music marketing, including work with major record labels and artists. At HITCO, she developed Conway's marketing plans and promotional schedules.

Defense Ex 155-164: HITCO marketing timeline, travel records, emails, and photographs documenting Conway's November 2020 California trip.

Originally scheduled November 10-13, 2020. HITCO purchased the flights and arranged promotional activities through its travel agency, Frost Entertainment.

After MO3's murder on November 11, HITCO extended Conway's stay. Scott says the label wanted him based in Los Angeles, where much of his business was conducted.

Conway returned to Dallas on November 20 to check on his mother, then flew back to California. Scott also saw his girlfriend and children during the extended stay.

Promotional activities included a Triller performance, acoustic recordings, and a photo shoot. Conway and his family spent Thanksgiving at Scott's home.

Conway and his girlfriend considered relocating to Los Angeles and signed a townhouse lease, although they ultimately did not move in.

December travel included the Errol Spence fight in Dallas and a later trip to collect belongings left in California.



MUSIC RELEASES

HITCO controlled the release schedule for music recorded under the label.

Scott confirms that "Keep It In The Streets" was recorded before its release and that the label, rather than Conway alone, determined when it would be released.

CROSS (TOMMY ADAMS)

November 11, 2020: Scott sent group messages about needing to coordinate messaging concerning what had happened in Dallas.

In one message, Scott wrote: "We need to hop on a call to strategize messaging around what just happened in Dallas."

Another message called for Conway to craft a response.

Adams emphasizes the timing of the messages following MO3's shooting and questions why preparing a public response was considered necessary so quickly.

Scott confirms the messages but says she was acting as a marketer and believed the team should be prepared.

Scott says police had not contacted her about Conway's alleged involvement at that point, and Conway had not told her he hired White to kill MO3.
