C-Murder Won't Get New Trial

The Advocate reports that Louisiana's 5th Circuit Court of Appeals overturned State District Judge Martha Sassone's decision to grant a new trial to Corey Miller, also known as C-Murder. Judge Sassone granted the new trial after learning that prosecutors withheld information from Miller's attorney that some of the state's key witnesses had criminal records. The Court of Appeals reversed, finding an abundance of other evidence to fully establish Miller's guilt.
