C-Murder’s Victim’s Family Tells Monica & Kim K To ‘Keep That Killer In Prison’
C-Murder’s Victim Steve Thomas’ Family To Monica & Kim K: “Keep That Killer In Prison”
Kim Kardashian and Monica Arnold are currently lobbying Donald Trump to free New Orleans rapper, C-Murder, who was convicted of murder in 2002. They claim that C Murder is innocent and should have his conviction overturned.
While C Murder’s celebrity friends are being heard on the issue, not many are talking about the victim in the homicide – a 16 year old boy.
Acccording to MTO, multiple members of the 16 year old victim’s family have reached out to them, and asked to have their voices heard. They claim that C Murder is a killer who brutally murdered their family member – a teenage boy.
The media outlet shared that they were told to objectively tell the story of what happened to the victim. The victim was Steve Thomas, a 16 year old high school student whose favorite artist was C Murder.
Steve heard that C-Murder was performing a show near him in Harvey, Louisiana, and so he borrowed an older friend’s ID so he could get in to the club to see his hero perform.
Steve told his parents he was going to a movie, and headed to the Platinum Club with gold foil wrapped around his teeth, a fake “grill” to look cool. When Steve got in, he saw his idol C Murder. The teenage boy was so excited that he tried to get close to C Murder to shake his hand and talk. And that’s when things went wrong.
According to Medium, when Thomas encroached on C-Murder’s personal space. What we do know is that he was quickly issued a severe beating by Miller’s entourage of at least 15 people. The rap star himself landed many blows. And then a shot rang out, accompanied by (according to some witnesses) a furious Miller shouting “Do you know who the f — – I am?”
Most of the attendees scattered after the gun was fired, and few who were around when the police arrived were willing to talk.

This wasn’t the first time C-Murder was alleged to have pulled his gun in anger. He had been found guilty in a previous incident in Baton Rouge, where he shot at a club owner who refused to let him in with his firearm.
Miller was eventually found guilty of the crime, but the legal proceedings have been fraught with controversy. There have been multiple accusations of witness intimidation on those who alleged to have seen C-Murder pull the trigger.
On the other side, many believe the trial had been unfair to Miller because of the lack of physical evidence, and the fallibility of eyewitness accounts. Also, one juror has said she felt bullied by the court and fellow jurors to convict him against her judgement. Nonetheless, C-Murder has received a life sentence and has been incarcerated for over a decade. He continues to release music from prison and maintains his innocence.
