Master P’s younger brother already had one witness recant his story after testifying against him back in 2003. Today, according to NOLA , a second witness in the case has come forward to admit that he also lied when pointing out Miller as the shooter who killed 16-year-old Steven Thomas. 36-year-old Darnell Jordan says now that he feared the detectives from Jefferson Parish and was tricked into identifying C-Murder. “I am certain that Corey Miller did not shoot Steve Thomas,” Jordan said in a hand-written letter filed with the 24th Judicial District Court Monday (July 2).

C-Murder (real name Corey Miller) was convicted in 2009 of shooting a teenager to death in a Louisiana nightclub in 2002. C-Murder is Master P’s brother and an uncle to actor/rapper Romeo. Last week a three-judge panel from Louisiana’s 5th Circuit Court of Appeal rejected Miller’s argument that he didn’t get a fair trial and that prosecutors systematically eliminated black people from the jury. Less than two weeks after Miller was sentenced for Steve Thomas’ death, he received a separate 10-year prison sentence for pleading no contest to charges he tried to shoot a Baton Rouge nightclub owner and bouncer in 2001.
