C Murder Wants To Postpone His Trial

Master P, I mean, P Miller's brother, Cory 'C Murder' Miller wants his murder trial postponed because he fears the judge has it in for him because it's an election year. C Murder is charged with the January 12, 2002 shooting death of 16-year-old Steve Thomas inside of Club Platinum, a defunct nightclub in Louisiana. C's judge is under fire because she granted Murder a new trial, after his 2003 conviction, when it was revealed that witnesses in the case had their criminal records expunged in exchange for their testimony. Her opponent is using the new trial ruling to accuse the incumbent of being soft on crime. Jury selection was to have started yesterday.

Our stand against the publication of the memoirs of our mother ... is not merely a family feud but rather our ongoing attempt to protect and maintain the integrity of our mother's legacy.
