C-Murder 2nd Trial Date Set

According to the Associated Press, a second trial has been set for January 12, 2009. However, the first judge Sassone will not preside over the trial, after losing re-election as 24th Judicial District Court in Louisiana. Her successor, Ellen Kovach, has also made it clear that she as well will not be a part of the murder trial due to her open criticism of Sassone during her campaign for election, where she specifically criticized the decisions of the Miller trial.

C-Murder, was charged for second-degree murder and convicted in 2003 after fatally shooting 16-year-old Steve Thomas at a Louisiana night club on January 12, 2002. The conviction was eventually overturned by State Judge Martha Sassone. Sassone then granted Miller a second trial, though at the time there was no decision on when that trial would occur.

Trail For T.I.s Assistant and Friend Has Started

One of the men accused of killing T.I.’s assistant and friend, Philant Johnson, went on trial for the murder in Cincinnati:

"Prosecutors told a jury that they are sure Hosea Thomas fired the fatal shot because of their star witness – Padron Thomas, the accused killer’s brother who was driving the Jeep that night as it chased T.I.’s vans down Seymour Avenue.


“It’s all going to come down to witness testimony,” assistant Hamilton County prosecutor Heather Gosselin told jurors today.


Hosea Thomas, 34, is charged with murder, felonious assault and other charges stemming from the incident. Three members of T.I.’s entourage were injured and a fourth, Philant Johnson, died after being shot in the head during the running gunbattle. Johnson was T.I.’s assistant and childhood friend.


Hosea Thomas, Gosselin said, was hit in the head with a bottle while inside Roselawn’s Club Ritz, where T.I. and his crew were attending an afterparty following a concert at Bogart’s.
That started a fight that resulted in patrons pouring out of the club. Within minutes, T.I.’s two vans were chased by a green Jeep Cherokee and the shooting took place.


Padron Thomas, 40, told officials he was driving the Jeep as his brother, Hosea, fired the shots at T.I.’s vans. At least one member of T.I.’s crew returned fire.


Cincinnati police officer Dom Meece testified today that the scene inside T.I.’s van was “something out of a horror movie” with blood dripping off of the ceiling and brain matter on the floor.


After the shooting, Gosselin said, Padron Thomas had his Jeep painted black and had a bullet hole in it repaired. (Source) "

Jeezy's job Was To unload BMF’s Trucks

During the ongoing Black Mafia Family cocaine-conspiracy case, a government witness (and former BMF member) Ralph “Ralphie” Simms testified that he saw rapper Young Jeezy receive kilos of cocaine from BMF. According to reports:

Simms testified that Jeezy's job was to unload BMF’s cocaine from limos outfitted with secret compartments. He said he piled as many as 100 “bricks” of cocaine at a time inside the basement of one of BMF’s stash houses, an ultra-modern Buckhead mansion nicknamed “Space Mountain.” And he said that on one occasion, in the fall of 2004, he was ordered by high-ranking BMF members Chad “J-Bo” Brown and Martez “Tito” Byrth to set aside multi-kilo cocaine “shipments” for two customers. Simms said the customers picked up the coke from him at Space Mountain.

When asked by assistant U.S. Attorney Robert McBurney who the customers were, Simms gave two names: William “Doc” Marshall, a high-level BMF co-conspirator who testified earlier in the trial, and “Jeezy.”

“Young Jeezy the rapper?” McBurney asked.

“Yes,” Simms answered.
