C-Murder Found Guilty Of Murder


A New Orleans jury has found rapper Corey "C-Murder" Miller guilty of second-degree murder.

In 2003, Miller was convicted of fatally beating and killing a fan at a Louisiana nightclub.

The jury came across the verdict earlier this morning, though the judge has issued more time to spend on the matter, as one of the jurors seemed "in a rush to end the trial".

The jury told Judge Hans Liljeberg that they were 'deadlocked' over Miller's alleged 2002-murder of Steve Thomas.

Prosecutors concluded their arguments with the jury at 10:00, while Miller's attorney finished his around 10:40 AM. The verdict comes seven years after the passing of sixteen year-old Thomas, who would have been twenty-three this year.

If indeed found guilty, Miller faces a lifetime prison sentence.

C-Murder found early success with first LP Life or Death, which was certified platinum by the RIAA.
