C-Murder denied retrial over murder conviction

Two appeal court judges have upheld rapper C-Murder's murder conviction and denied him a retrial, saying there was enough other evidence even without the testimony of witnesses given deals.

More from the pop courts, and rapper C-Murder has been denied a retrial over his murder conviction. As previously reported,

C-Murder is currently serving a life sentence for allegedly killing a teenage fan during a brawl at a New Orleans club.

However one judge later overruled his conviction after it was revealed some of those who testified against the rapper had been offered deals by police relating to their own charges.

But now two appeal court judges have said the original conviction should stand because "there was an abundance of other evidence which fully established Miller's guilt" even if you removed the testimonies of the witnesses who allegedly received deals to testify. All of which is bad news for C-Murder, especially as he is in the process of releasing his new album from behind bars. The rapper's lawyers may, however, appeal that new decision.
