Witnesses Recant Testimony That Put Rapper C-Murder Away For Life

July 3, 2018 by admin
Uncategorized

JEFFERSON PARISH, La. ― Roughly a decade after hip-hop artist Corey “C-Murder” Miller was sentenced to life imprisonment in a fatal shooting, new evidence has been uncovered that raises serious doubts about his guilt.

The two principal prosecution witnesses, the only ones who testified Miller was the gunman who killed 16-year-old Steven Thomas in 2002, have recanted their testimony. In separate affidavits, the witnesses said detectives in the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office coerced them into deliberately and wrongly identifying Miller as the gunman.

“I know that the individual who I saw shoot the gun was not Corey Miller,” 35-year-old Kenneth Jordan, one of the recanting witnesses, wrote in a signed affidavit.

The other witness, 36-year-old Darnell Jordan, who is no relation to Kenneth Jordan, signed a similar affidavit, saying that he, too, lied on the witness stand.

“I am certain that Corey Miller did not shoot Steve Thomas,” wrote Jordan, who was a bouncer at the now-closed Platinum Club in the New Orleans suburb of Harvey.

Both affidavits were filed in 24th Judicial District Court in the past week by Miller’s attorney, Paul Barker, who is requesting that the court vacate Miller’s conviction. “The entire conviction was based on the testimony of these two witnesses and we now have affidavits recanting both of those testimonies,” Barker told HuffPost. “We can now essentially impeach the state’s entire case. There’s nothing left for them to hang their hat on.”

Miller is the younger brother of hip-hop mogul Percy “Master P” Miller. He became a platinum-selling artist on his brother’s No Limit record label in the late 1990s, alongside Snoop Dogg, Mystikal and Mac. Miller grew up in New Orleans, a city with a sordid policing history that was once dubbed “The Murder Capital of America.”

The Jefferson Parish sheriff at the time of Miller’s arrest was Harry Lee, now-deceased, who referred to himself as “king” of his suburban New Orleans domain. He regularly made headlines for the aggressive policing of blacks and was known to criticize rap music, claiming it glamorized crime. Discussing Miller’s arrest with The Times-Picayune in 2002, Lee theorized the hip-hop artist was “living out his lyrics.” Quoting a detective who worked the case, Lee reportedly said Miller “wanted to be a gangsta.” Barker believes cops were quick to zero in on his client because of his profession and his stage name.

“Because his rap name was C-Murder, that meant to them he was a murderer,” the attorney said. “They were very aggressive in going after him and making sure he fell for this.”

At Miller’s first trial, in 2003, Darnell Jordan testified that he saw Thomas, who’d been fighting with several men at the Platinum Club, lying on the ground when a muzzle flash came from the end of Miller’s outstretched arm. A jury ultimately convicted Miller of second-degree murder. However, before sentencing, a judge threw out the conviction after finding the prosecution had improperly withheld information from the defense.

Kenneth Jordan, who was not called to testify at Miller’s first trial, joined Darnell Jordan on the witness stand for Miller’s second trial, which began in August 2009. Darnell Jordan repeated his earlier testimony, while Kenneth Jordan described in detail what he’d allegedly seen happen.

“C-Murder stood over him and shot him,” Kenneth Jordan testified in court. “It popped my ears. It made my ears ring. That’s how close I was to the gun.” The testimony was vital for the prosecution, since they’d failed to establish a viable motive and none of the other 100-plus people at the nightclub could place a gun in Miller’s hand.

Controversy ensued during deliberations when the jury told the judge they were deadlocked. Rather than declare a mistrial, the judge ordered them to continue deliberating. The jury came back a second time with a 10–2 guilty verdict, which in Louisiana is sufficient for conviction.

On Aug. 14, 2009, Miller was sentenced to life in prison.

Miller’s conviction was upheld in 2011, even after juror Mary Jacob revealed she and a college student had been pressured by fellow jurors to find Miller guilty. “They literally made this 20-year-old girl so violently ill, she was shaking so bad,” Jacob said, according to The Times-Picayune. “She ran into the bathroom. She was throwing her guts up. She couldn’t function anymore. That’s when I decided, the judge don’t want to listen to me, doesn’t want to listen to us. I told them, ‘You want him to be guilty? He’s guilty; now let’s get the hell out of here.’”

Kenneth Jordan now says that, despite his sworn testimony, he did not see Miller shoot Thomas. He says Jefferson Parish detectives didn’t question him until a year after the shooting and then threatened him with a decade behind bars for impregnating a 16-year-old girl. “The JPSO officer approached me and offered me leniency in my criminal case if I agreed to cooperate and give them a statement implicating Corey Miller,” reads Kenneth Jordan’s newly signed affidavit. “I told the JPSO officers that I saw the shooter and the shooter was not Corey Miller. However, the officer pressured me to lie and say it was Corey Miller, all while holding criminal charges over my head.”

He said the officer went so far as to coach him on creating his original account.

“I was distraught and scared,” Kenneth Jordan claims in the affidavit. “JPSO officers told me that if I testified against Corey Miller I could ‘go home’; they told me what to say; they fed me facts about the fight and details about the DJ and the dance party, none of which I really knew.” He further claims authorities picked him up on a material witness bond two weeks before Miller’s second trial. He said he reiterated to them that his statement was untrue but was still forced to testify.

“On countless occasions, Mr. Jordan told members of law enforcement and prosecution that his 2003 recorded statement to the JPSO officers was not true, that the person he saw commit the shooting was definitely not Corey Miller, and that he did not want to lie under oath about Corey’s involvement,” Barker wrote in the court filing. “At no time during the 15+ years of proceedings in this tortured case has the state once disclosed this information to Mr. Miller himself, or to Mr. Miller’s attorneys.”

Barker told HuffPost it’s especially troubling that prosecutors didn’t put Kenneth Jordan on the witness stand until the second trial.

“That’s the kicker,” he said. “So, you’re telling me your star witness at trial number two wasn’t important enough to be called during trial number one? That don’t add up, and I think that speaks volumes.” The other key witness, Darnell Jordan, claims he was also picked up by authorities on a material witness bond and coerced into identifying Miller as a suspect.

“I was scared of them,” Darnell Jordan wrote in his affidavit. Both witnesses maintain they have long been troubled by their false testimony but were fearful of recanting. They only recently decided it was time for the truth to come out.

“I want to right the wrong that I made all those years ago,” Kenneth Jordan wrote. “I can no longer live with knowing that Corey Miller is sitting in jail for something he did not do because of my fabricated statement.” Darnell Jordan wrote: “I just want to tell the truth and clear my name.”

Miller, who was 30 years old at the time of the Thomas slaying, has a history of run-ins with police. In 2001 he was arrested for shooting a semiautomatic pistol inside a nightclub when he was refused entry. Video of the incident was circulated online, and Miller ultimately pleaded no contest to two counts of attempted second-degree murder. Barker, who acknowledges his client’s prior legal problems, said they have no bearing in this case.

“There are people who a lot of times will say, ‘He’s done XYZ in the past, so he needs to be in jail,’ but that’s not how it works,” the attorney said. “This is a case with no physical evidence, no DNA and no forensics. Of course, we want to see justice for the victim’s family, but justice isn’t putting an innocent man away.” The sheriff’s office and Jefferson Parish District Attorney’s Office would not comment on the case.

“Because this is a pending matter, the DA’s office isn’t commenting,” district attorney spokesman Paul D. Purpura told HuffPost.

It’s unclear whether Miller will be freed. The judge presiding over it can either toss out the conviction, deny the court filing or order a hearing. The prosecution will likely be permitted to file a response before that decision is made. Barker said Miller, who has always maintained his innocence, is “cautiously optimistic” about the latest developments.

“There’s been several times throughout this ordeal that he’s been hopeful and let down, but this is hopefully what it will take to free a man who didn’t do what he is serving a life sentence for,” the attorney said.

C-Murder’s Lawyer And Loved Ones Hopeful After Recanted Testimonies: Exclusive

Corey “C-Murder” Miller has been in prison since 2009 serving a life sentence for the 2002 murder of a 16-year-old boy named Steve Thomas at the Platinum Club in Harvey, Louisiana. But over the last seven days, the former No Limit Records rapper and his family have received startling news: a key witness from the trial named Kenneth Jordan has recanted his statement, saying that detectives pressured him to lie in exchange for avoiding prison time for another criminal charge. And as of Monday (July 2), VIBE reports that another witness, Darnell Jordan, is also recanting his testimony, with similar claims of “threats and coercion,” according to a memorandum filed by Miller’s legal representation.

Miller’s attorney, Paul Barker, has filed two memorandums claiming that the new affidavits show Miller’s rights were denied and that he should receive a new trial and an eventual release from prison.

“Because the testimony of the two eyewitnesses was the only evidence that the State had implicating Mr. Miller as the shooter, impeachment of those two eyewitnesses would have had the effect of impeaching the State’s entire case against Mr. Miller,” Barker wrote in a memorandum filed on Monday. “Had the State abided by its ethical duty of disclosure, it is highly unlikely that the State would have ever tried Mr. Miller.”

Neither the Sheriff’s Office nor the Jefferson Parish district attorney’s office has commented about the case, according to The Times-Picayune in New Orleans.

Under the name C-Murder, Miller earned platinum plaques in the late 1990s and early 2000s with his siblings Percy “Master P” Miller and Vyshonne King “Silkk The Shocker” Miller under their label No Limit Records. Fan favorites of his included “Down For My Ni**az,” “Akickdoe!” and “Y’all Heard Of Me.”

A jury convicted Miller of the murder in Sept. 2003. There was no weapon found or DNA evidence, only the testimony from witnesses; but the initial conviction was overturned, because of the claim that prosecutors withheld information from the jury about the witnesses’ criminal records. He was convicted again and sentenced to life in prison, after a jury’s 10-2 verdict during his retrial on Aug. 11, 2009.

Recanted Testimonies

In the original trial, Kenneth Jordan testified that he was inside the now-closed Platinum Club on Manhattan Boulevard and saw Thomas get mobbed after stepping off the stage during a rap battle. After the fight, he testified, Miller stood over the 16-year-old and shot him in the heart.

But in a new affidavit, Jordan recants his testimony, saying that he saw a man “with a dark complexion wearing a hoodie” fire the shot, according to New Orleans Advocate.

“I know the individual who I saw shoot the gun was not Corey Miller,” he states in the affidavit.

Jordan says in the affidavit that detectives spoke to him more than a year after the shooting after Jordan’s newborn daughter had been found dead. He says police threatened him with criminal charges unless he testified against Miller. (The child’s mother was later charged and convicted for drowning the baby.)

“I was distraught and scared,” Jordan said in the affidavit, according to New Orleans Advocate. “JPSO officers told me that if I testified against Corey Miller I could ‘go home;’ they told me what to say; they fed me facts about the fight and details about the DJ and the dance party, none of which I really knew.”

Barker told VIBE that he and a private investigator had pursued Jordan for long stretches of time after the trial because his testimony didn’t seem consistent with what happened. But Jordan never returned phone calls or notes from the investigator that were left at his home. He wasn’t legally obligated to since the trial was already over.

“There was something wrong with the case that just kind of smelled wrong, and I felt as though we just had to keep digging to find what it was,” Barker said. “When I got to Kenneth Jordan’s testimony, I thought, ‘something is not right about this.’”

Two of Miller’s friends and collaborators, Cuttboy G-Dinero and 2Meka Diaz, submitted his case to Reasonable Doubt, a true-crime show with the TV network Investigation Discovery in August 2017. When the investigators on the show searched for Jordan and another witness, Jordan finally stepped forward to change his story.

“I think he was all of a sudden ready to talk, and I think he saw that show as an opportunity to put the truth out there,” Barker said.

Jordan recanted his story while speaking with producers, and Barker and Miller’s investigator tracked Jordan down to get an official statement. They met, an affidavit was submitted, and the episode of Reasonable Doubt aired days later.

“If I could turn back the hands of time I wouldn’t have did it,” the 36-year-old said on Reasonable Doubt. “In that moment I felt like it was what I had to do. I just want my life back, and I want [Miller] to have his life back.”

In his memorandum, Barker shares that Kenneth was threatened with ten years of prison if he failed to testify against Miller and that he repeatedly told members of law enforcement and prosecution that his recorded statement to the officers was untrue.

“At no time during the 15+ years of proceedings in this tortured case has the state once disclosed this information to Mr. Miller himself, or to Mr. Miller’s attorney or any other member of Mr. Miller’s defense team.”

Less than a week later, VIBE reports, Barker filed another memorandum with a sworn affidavit with Darnell Jordan, the other witness who was working as a security guard at the club the night of the shooting. The Times-Picayune reports that in 2009, Darnell Jordan identified Miller as the shooter.

In the new affidavit, Darnell Jordan claims that he called 911 and never identified Miller as the shooter, and that he immediately told officers “C-Murder didn’t do this” and that “the flash from the gun came from the other side of the pile [of people fighting]” opposite of Miller. The statement continues, with claims that detectives gave Darnell Jordan a piece of paper and said it was his statement, that he was “tricked” into identifying Miller as the shooter, and that police arrested Darnell Jordan on a material witness bond at his grandmother’s house prior to Miller’s second trial. He testified as the detectives instructed, he wrote, out of fear for his and his family’s safety.

As for Miller himself, Darnell Jordan said that he pulled him away from the fight, and that while doing so, he pulled up his shirt and saw that there was no gun in Miller’s waistband.

Barker said that now, Miller’s legal team hopes to get an evidentiary hearing in his case. That way, witnesses who would otherwise want to avoid testifying would be forced to by subpoena. That’s where Barker would present his client’s case: a lack of physical evidence or DNA against Miller, and two witnesses who have recanted their testimonies, replacing them with claims of police corruption.

From there, Miller may have a chance to finally get out of prison, but the process may take “a year or two.”

“I’m cautiously optimistic,” Barker said.

Hopes for freedom

Cuttboy G-Dinero and 2Meka Diaz, have said the news of Jordan’s recanted testimony has been a long time coming. They’ve insisted his innocence ever since he was charged, and they said their friend is glad to have his name closer to being cleared.

“We talked to him today,” Diaz said on a phone call with VIBE late Tuesday night (June 26). “He’s very grateful and optimistic and relieved that his story is finally being told.”Dinero said the news was bittersweet.

“I’m happy, but this man did all this time for something he didn’t do. You know how that feels? To be sitting in there?” he said in a written statement. “I salute C, he is one of the TRUest and realest people I know. But we have a justice system that we can’t even trust; they failed Corey Miller.”

Romeo Miller, Corey Miller’s nephew and the son of Master P, also shared his excitement on social media.

GOD’s strongest soldiers are given the toughest battles, just look at Joseph story in the Bible! My Uncle Corey was just being prepared for his real blessings! The devil tried to break this family apart, but we only got stronger. | #GodsTiming

— Romeo Miller (@RomeoMiller) June 27, 2018

Beyond Miller’s case, Diaz is also hoping for a change in legislation in Louisiana. Louisiana is one of only two states that require a 10-2 vote by a jury to convict a defendant of a felony, as opposed to a unanimous jury. State senators JP Morrell, D-New Orleans, and Troy Carter, D-New Orleans, introduced Senate Bill 243 to end that practice; the bill has already passed the Senate, and if it passes the House of Representatives, it could be left to a vote for Louisianians in November.

Cuttboy G Dinero says he has a new single with C-Murder coming soon, “Dey Put Da Blame On Me,” which was recorded while Miller was on house arrest before his 2009 conviction. The snippet can be heard below.

Dinero says that if Miller gets out of prison, his first visits will be to his family and to worship. He said that Miller has spent a lot of his time deep in prayer while in prison.

“C got like three daughters. I think that’s the first place he gon’ go. And then I think after that, me myself, I think he’ll go to the church and thank the Lord.”

Last month, Corey Miller aka C-Murder of the legendary No Limit movement from New Orleans began a hunger strike in Louisiana’s notorious Angola State Prison to combat the mistreatment and inhumane conditions of the inmates there. After three weeks of a successful strike, Miller was returned to population from solitary confinement, ending the process, making it a success.

“I’m good, inmates are good, just continue to check on your love ones here at Angola,”

CMurder told AllHipHop.com. “I wanna thank everyone who checked on me and things are moving right along.”

His brother Master P made a statement on Instagram after his visit with his younger brother, confirming the success of the hunger strike.

C-Murder is still continuing his fight to overturn his murder conviction of a 16 year old in a nightclub in 2002.

Last month, C-Murder went on a hunger strike at Angola State Prison. He was tired of correctional officers treating prisoners wrong, talked about the unsanitary conditions of the prison and didn’t want to eat until something changed. C-Murder continued the strike for three weeks.

 

The rapper went back into population after being in solitary confinement. The Source mentioned in an article that C-Murder said, “I’m good, inmates are good, just continue to check on your love ones here at Angola. I wanna thank everyone who checked on me and things are moving right along.” Master P went to see his brother and on Instagram talked about how he wants to better himself and help young people on a dangerous track.

Master P said, “ I went to visit my brother in Angola Prison, he’s in good spirit. He told me that he wants to use his case and his life to help other young men not have to go through the unnecessary injustice that he’s been through. We laughed, we argued, we fussed and we fought but in the end we realized that there is nothing more important than family. We will be there when no one else will. Blood is thicker than water. You can choose your friends but not your family. Nothing is more important than love. We all we got. Free Corey Miller. God will turn this around.” There is no word on if the prison has mad changes, but we will keep you posted.

C-Murder Speaks On Mistreatment at Angola & the Hunger Strike

Corey “C-Murder” Miller and his fellow inmates at Angola Prison are currently on a hunger strike due to various reasons, ranging from visitor mistreatment, sanitation, water quality, medical treatment and care, and others. According to a statement given by Miller’s publicist, Tammy Ty Page, Miller joined the strike Tuesday with hopes of shedding light on

Corey “C-Murder” Miller and his fellow inmates at Angola Prison are currently on a hunger strike due to various reasons, ranging from visitor mistreatment, sanitation, water quality, medical treatment and care, and others.

According to a statement given by Miller’s publicist, Tammy Ty Page, Miller joined the strike Tuesday with hopes of shedding light on the conditions in the prison. While the issues have been ongoing, whenever the inmates complained they would be reprimanded with violence against them or denied visitations.

Recently on separate visits, two female visitors of Miller’s were stripped searched, cavity searched, and “told to open their vajay-jay lips and jump up and down.”

In a message recorded while still behind bars, the TRU Records CEO says, “Angola should be shut down immediately. Being incarcerated does not mean we are not human. Every waking day we are subjected to unfairness and forced to live in inhumane conditions. Our constitution and civil rights are a joke. Racism is as common here as brushing your teeth. Many have died here at the hands of corruption only to be labeled as suicides…” You can hear the full message below.

Miller also mentions a Kentrell Parker, an inmate who was paralyzed in a Department of Corrections football accident who needs outside healthcare, but the prison will not allow it.

“My hunger strike continues, until Angola can have an independent health source to investigate the prison practice of health-care, food handling and overall cleanest of the prison. Right now worms come out the shower head, feces can be seen on the walls, roaches and even animals find their way in the prison,” Miller says.

Nicknamed the Alcatraz of the South, the prison officially opened in 1901 under the named The Louisiana State Penitentiary, but is called Angola due to the plantation that once stood there. It is the largest maximum security prison in the country and the location of many horrific stories. Earlier this week, a former major in the prison was convicted of an inmate beating.

Miller says that he understands that by speaking out for himself and using his platform to give others prisoners a voice, he will be retaliated against by the system; the same system he also says wrongfully accused him, and asks his family and fans to continue to check on him. The latest reports say he is currently in the Dungeon.

It has been said that the former rapper is often singled out and punished because of who he is and his ability to share what is going on in the prison. This is also said to be part of the reason why he has not been released.

EXCLUSIVE: CMurder Announces Hunger Strike To Protest Angola Prison

January 30, 2018 by admin
Uncategorized

(AllHipHop Features) Incarcerated rapper CMurder is among the inmates embarking on a hunger strike at Angola Prison.

According to his Publicist Tammy “Ty” Page, CMurder, born Corey Miller, is using his platform as a well-known rapper to voice the dire conditions going on at Angola. CMurder is serving a life sentence for the 2002 murder of a 16-year-old named Steven Thomas, inside of a Jefferson Parish nightclub.

In 2009 CMurder was sentenced to life in jail, after winning multiple appeals, when it was revealed that prosecutors bribed witnesses for favorable testimony. The case went all the way to Louisiana’s Supreme Court, which upheld the conviction, automatically triggering a life sentence in Angola Prison for CMurder.

CMurder’s hunger strike is in protest of Angola Prison, Assistant Warden Barrett Boeker, Warden Darrel Vannoy, The Department of Corrections and James LeBlanc The Secretary of DOC.

“Although, the actual person that fired the gun that night sits in a prison in Georgia and has signed an affidavit with an audio confessing to a separate attorney whom knew nothing of Miller’s case, stating that he, not Miller, is the one that is responsible for the killing and is not associated with Miller,” C-Murder’s publicist Tammy “Ty” Page told AllHipHop.com.

CMurder and other inmates have a long list of complaints against Angola prison officials, who he claims are railroading his release, by preventing him from seeing friends, family, and his attorney.

The rapper claims his Constitutional rights are regularly violated and that physical abuse has been going on for several years inside the prison as well. CMurder said visitors, including men, women, elderly and kids as young as eight are harassed and some are even subjected to strip searches.

“This has caused an immense amount of frustration and anger due to the fact that there are guards up there that have open pending charges against them for sexual misconduct, sexual abuse, and physical abuse,” Tammy “Ty” Page explained. The rapper said he’s being targeted by Angola’s Assistant Warden Barrett Boeker. Boeker was arrested in December of 2016 for second-degree rape at his home on the prison grounds, yet he still holds a high ranking position at Angola.

Miller believes Assistant Warden Barrett Boeker has been retaliating against him over a racial discrimination complaint he filed against this very same warden. And just earlier this week, a former major at Angola was found guilty of conspiring to cover up the beating of a handcuffed and shackled prisoner.

The rapper’s publicist said the same abuse happened to CMurder. “In March 2017, my client was placed in handcuffs for nearly 24 hours in the hole,” Tammy “Ty” Page said. “His hands were so swollen that they had to cut the handcuffs off of him nearing amputation.”

CMurder claims the inmates are on the hunger strike because they are being denied proper healthcare, while being treated inhumanely. CMurder also made the shocking claim that guards are covering up murders at the hands of guards and listing them as suicides. Miller’s publicist Tammy “Ty” Page said she believes that speaking out will cause more retaliation to her client. But Page said this could shed light on the conditions at Angola and possibly help other inmates that do not have a stage to speak out for fear of reprisal.

“I have also reached out to a Civil Rights Attorney Ben Crump and Jarrett Adams, another attorney very familiar with prison conditions,” Page said. “At this point, I fear my client’s safety and well-being during this hunger strike, but something has to be done.” Check out the letter CMurder’s sent to AllHipHop.com from jury member Geralneigh Bazile, who maintains she was harassed by other jurors for her “not guilty” vote.
