The C-Murder legal team now includes Ben Crump and Ronald Haley Jr.
Civil rights attorneys Ben Crump and Ronald Haley Jr. have teamed up to represent Corey “C-Murder” Miller, who is currently serving a life sentence at the Elayn Hust Correctional Center in Louisiana on a murder conviction in which he continues to plead innocence .
Miller recently spoke out publicly about the facility’s living and safety conditions, and even went on a hunger strike to clarify the situation.
“Nobody in the state of Louisiana is doomed to become infected with COVID-19 or to die from it,” said a statement by Crump and Haley, suffering or dying from the spread of COVID-19 and the Delta variant. There is no justice system that should allow such neglect of the health and safety of inmates. “
In 2002, C-Murder was arrested in connection with the murder of a 16-year-old boy. Two of the witnesses who testified against him during the trial retracted their testimony in 2018, but a judge ruled against overturning the conviction.
“Mr. Miller pledges his innocence and we are working diligently with his legal defense team to get him out, but in the meantime we are monitoring conditions at Elayn Hunt and considering legal action,” added his legal team. Miller and all those detained, who fear losing their lives due to the pandemic and the inhumanity of the penal system. We demand that the penal authorities act immediately. “
