Judge Refuses to Dismiss C-Murder’s Indictment, Trial to Proceed

 •  XXL Magazine  •  by XXL Staff  •  30 Comments

A judge on Monday (February 11) refused to dismiss a murder indictment against Corey “C-Murder” Miller clearing the way for his second trial to proceed. The No Limit rapper stands accused of the 2002 murder of 16-year-old Steve Thomas at a club in Harvey, La. Over a year ago, his defense team filed three motions to dismiss the indictment, suppress evidence and toss out witness identifications of Miller. According to the New Orleans Times-Picayune, Miller’s attorney Ron Rakosky argued that the prosecution prejudiced the original grand jury by presenting witnesses that knew nothing of Thomas’ murder, but instead testified about a separate 2001 shooting in Baton Rouge that the rapper has also been charged with. Rakosky also claims that the prosecution withheld evidence that would have been beneficial to his client and called the witnesses’ testimony contradictory. The defense wanted several pieces of evidence, including items seized from Miller’s cell, and the clothing he wore on the night of the murder, barred from the trial. Judge Martha Sassone denied all three defense motions without explanation. Jury selection for the trial had been scheduled to begin on Monday, but both the defense and prosecution have requested more time to flesh out issues with witnesses.

    C-Murder is a fake thug gangster wannabe. Everyone in New Orleans knows this man is a coward. He got the shit kicked out of him back in 2000 by Lil wayne.

    Yeah thats right – Lil Wayne – who’s 4 foot tall and 100 pounds – beat the shit of pussy boy C-Murder over a dispute over money.

    Whilst C-Murder was in jail, word is on the street he was the prison hoe.

    Everything that the man owns to this day is because of his big brother Percy Miller. He never did shit on his own.

    I’ve held down the Millers since P came with that ice cream man. I’m a fan for sure. But I gotta say, from what I’ve seen, Mr. Corey looks guilty to me.

    What’s fucked up is that a dumbass rapper that took the life of one whose life hadnt even truly started (the kid was 17) might not have to spend the rest of his miserable life in jail because he has the means to buy slimeball fucking attorneys. Fuck C-Murder.

      I don’t know about where you from, but in the south these youngins got bodies by the age of 13 and 14. So just b/c dude was young doesn’t mean he wasn’t in the streets.

    ^^^^^

    You sound ignorant. Him “being in the streets” has nothing to do with it. There are 12 year old girls fucking, doesnt mean a 30 year old man should put his dick in her. Right? And I’m from Baltimore, bodies get caught at a young age down here too (as you probably know). Doesnt make it any less tragic.

    When you are going through a murder case image plays a big part. His publicist needs to change his nick-name. You can’t fight a murder case WHEN YOUR NAME IS MURDER. There are reprecussions for the words that come out of our mouth. Some words just bring the energy of trouble. Sound corny but I’ve found this to be true.

  • yacksippa

    both of you sound ignorant first of killin aint cool but with that being i’m thirty and if a 16 year old says he is gonna kill me wellllll u know bang

    By all accounts, this was NOT a case of self-defense. Corey was mad that he lost a rap battle. Simple as that. You obviously dont know shit about the murder at ALL, therefore making you the biggest ignoramus at the party. And you’re thirty. Which just makes you pathetic.
