*Kim Kardashian and Monica are on a mission to free C-Murder from prison.
C-Murder, born Corey Miller, is serving life in prison for the fatal shooting of 16-year-old Steve Thomas in 2009. Miller, brother of rapper Master P, appealed after one of the jurors, Mary Jacob, revealed she (and other jurors) received “brutal” pressure to vote guilty. But his murder conviction was upheld by the court.
Kenneth Jordan, a key witness in trial, filed a sworn affidavit, in 2018 stating, “I know the individual that I saw shoot the gun was not Corey Miller.” Jordan says Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office detectives pressured him to lie under oath, or else he would face a 10-year sentence on unrelated criminal charges, EUR previously reported.

“I was distraught and scared,” Jordan reportedly 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.”
Jordan also reportedly recanted in an episode of a true-crime series “Reasonable Doubt.”
“If I could turn back the hands of time, I wouldn’t have did it. In that moment it felt like that’s what I had to do,” Jordan reportedly says in the TV episode.
C-Murder’s ex-girlfriend, R&B singer Monica, has vowed to help get him released.
“You are not alone,” she wrote. “The fight is about to change because you will not fight alone! Your daughter and Tru family deserve to have you with them! I’m about to be on some other sh*t @cmurder”
True justice for the young man requires that the person who actually killed him be held responsible and that Corey Miller he returned home to his kids.

Kardashian also noted in a tweet, “True justice for the young man requires that the person who actually killed him be held responsible and that Corey Miller he returned home to his kids.”
C-Murder is serving his sentence at the Louisiana State Penitentiary. In 2017, he was ordered by a Jefferson Parish judge to pay Thomas’ family $1.15 million.
