C-Murder Case: Second Witness Recants Testimony
A second witness in C-Murder's murder case has recanted their statement paving the way for the conviction to be overturned.
Concluding week (June 26), the master police witness in the loftier profile murder case of Corey "C-Murder" Miller changed his testimony. It caused an uproar amidst fans and family of the former No Limit rapper including from his blood brother Principal P and nephew Romeo Miller, who calls for the conviction to be overturned. C-Murder is currently serving time for a murder that took place a decade and a one-half agone where a teenager was shot and killed at Harvey nightclub.
Kenneth Jordan, who was one of the key witnesses in the case, initially identified the rapper equally the shooter but is now recanting that statement. "I know that the individual who I saw shoot the gun was not Corey Miller," Hashemite kingdom of jordan said in a new affidavit filed in courtroom, NOLA reported.
C-Murder's attorney, Paul Barker, and Hashemite kingdom of jordan are accusing the Sheriff Function and the prosecutors of forcing the 35-twelvemonth-old to testify confronting the rapper. Jordan contends that government threatened to press criminal charges confronting him if he doesn't testify and his testimony ultimately leads to Miller's conviction.
A second witness, Darnell Jordan, is at present recanting his testimony. During C-Murder's 2nd-caste murder trial in 2009, he testified in courtroom that he saw Corey Miller killed Steve Thomas, who was 16 years old at the time of his decease.
Romeo Miller weighed in on the evolution on his Instagram folio. "My Uncle C has been serving a life judgement behind bars for something he didn't do and today the whole world knows he'due south innocent," he wrote. "The witness recants his testimony and says he was pressured into identifying the "famous rapper". Good or bad, one thing I know virtually life is that we may not understand everything, simply everything happens for a reason and although we all aren't treated every bit equal we must go on religion."
