The brother of C-Murder's alleged murder victim, George Thomas, says that Kim Kardashian working to free the incarcerated rapper is a "slap in the face" to his family. Thomas spoke about Kardashian's efforts during an appearance on BOSS TALK 101.
“It was a slap in the face to the family,” he said during the interview. “It’s a high-profile case, so you jumped on a case without reading all of the facts.” He added: “Had you done the research, you would say: ‘Hey, I’m not getting in this case.’ And then my family can’t properly mourn because every year — whether it’s BET, whether it’s something on YouTube, where there’s something else coming forward — it’s like it’s always he’s innocent, he was railroaded.”
Kim Kardashian Speaking Out On Second Chance Hiring
Kardashian has been actively working with Master P and others to spread awareness about C-Murder's case. In August she shared an update on the situation in a lengthy statement on social media. “There is no remaining evidence that even suggests that Corey Miller is any more culpable than the hundreds of patrons who were at the Platinum Club on January 12, 2002, when Steve Thomas was tragically shot,” Kardashian wrote at the time. “Rather than search for the real perpetrator of the crime, the local sheriff’s office zeroed in on proving a case against Mr. Miller. The lead detective harassed multiple witnesses and mishandled the case to such a degree that the trial court had no choice but to grant Mr. Miller a new trial after he was convicted in 2003.”
