Author
On 1 January 2007 Miller released his first written novel entitled Death Around The Corner. On 1 February 2014 Miller released two novels entitled Red Beans and Dirty Rice For The Soul and Bound By Loyalty.
Steve Thomas case
On 28 February 2002, Miller was indicted by a Jefferson Parish Grand Jury for second degree murder stemming from a 2002 beating and fatal shooting of a fan, 16-year-old Steve Thomas, at the Platinum Club, a now closed nightclub in Harvey, Louisiana. Miller was found guilty and convicted in 2003, however a few months afterwards Judge Martha Sassone, who had presided over the trial, reversed the conviction and granted Miller a new trial based on findings that prosecutors improperly withheld criminal background information on three of their witnesses.
While awaiting re-trial Miller was placed under house arrest. Judge Sassone allowed Miller to promote his new yet to be titled CD and novel, Death around the Corner, but ruled that a gag order pertaining to the case would remain in effect. The terms of the house arrest required Sassone's permission for all visitors, including reporters.
On 13 March 2007, Judge Sassone granted Miller's request to work on his music on a per request basis, but denied his request for a 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. curfew. Sassone's rulings became an issue in her failed 2008 bid for re-election, where she was defeated by Judge Ellen Kovach. Prosecutors subsequently renewed a request to have Miller returned to jail. During January 2009, Miller was confined to his residence on house arrest, and could only leave for a documented medical emergency.
On 27 May 2009, Miller pleaded no contest to two counts of attempted second degree murder. These charges stemmed from a 2001 incident in Baton Rouge in which Miller fired shots from a semi-automatic pistol at the owner and bouncer of a night club which refused to allow Miller to enter the business with the gun. Miller was sentenced to ten years with credit for time served. An authenticated surveillance video of the incident was posted online.
On 3 August 2009, the murder trial began. Witnesses testified to seeing the victim, who was there to participate in a rap contest, get attacked by 15 to 20 people. One of the club's bouncers testified to seeing the victim getting attacked and lying on his back trying to cover himself. The bouncer testified to seeing Miller reach his hand into the pile of people, then saw a gun flash from the end of Miller's arm. He claimed fear of repercussions for his testimony. The father of the victim spoke of his son being a huge fan of C-Murder before the incident. Prosecutors also charged C-Murder's associates with witness tampering. On 10 August 2009, the jury reported being deadlocked, but District Judge Hans Liljeberg instructed them to attempt to resolve the deadlock. Three hours later, the jury announced it had reached a 10-2 guilty verdict. Judge Liljeberg suspected that given the deadlock announced earlier followed by the quick reversal, one of the jurors decided to switch under pressure to end the trial. Judge Liljeberg instructed the jury to go back and deliberate on the case longer. When the jury returned with the same verdict, Miller was convicted of second degree murder with a 10-2 verdict. During sentencing, the victim's father was quoted as saying "I'm not rejoicing. I feel bad for family. But at least they can see him. What have we got but a gravesite and a photograph?" On 14 August 2009 Miller was sentenced by Judge Liljeberg to mandatory life imprisonment.
On 27 August 2009, Ernest Johnson, president of the Louisiana NAACP, requested an investigation into the jury deliberations. Miller's financial woes landed him the help of two Harvard attorneys, one of them Ronald Sullivan, who agreed to assist with his appeal. One of the jurors, Mary Jacob, stated that both she and a fellow juror, a 20-year-old student at Xavier University of Louisiana, were verbally abused by fellow jurors for their decision to acquit. According to Jacob, the abuse resulted in her switching her verdict, saying "hey literally made this 20-year-old girl so violently ill, she was shaking so bad. She ran into the bathroom. She was throwing her guts up. She couldn't function anymore. That's when I decided, the judge don't want to listen to me, doesn't want to listen to us? I told them, 'You want him to be guilty? He's guilty; now let's get the hell out of here.'" Jacob's account was partially confirmed by another juror. In Louisiana, a 10-2 consensus is sufficient for conviction but a 9-3 consensus results in a mistrial. On these grounds, Miller appealed the conviction, however on 28 December 2011, his conviction was upheld.
On 19 February 2013 Miller's final appeal was rejected by the Supreme Court. Miller's attorneys argued that because federal juries must reach unanimous verdicts in criminal cases, and Miller was convicted on a 10-2 verdict, Miller should have not been convicted in Louisiana.
On 2 April 2014 Miller's attorney, Rachel Conner, filed a post conviction relief application in state court in Gretna, Louisiana. Conner raised 10 points to support her assertion that Miller was denied a fair trial. Primary among those assertions is what Conner described as irregularities during the jury's deliberations, stating "ne juror cast a guilty vote not based on the evidence but because she wanted to end deliberations to protect another juror who refused to convict Miller but was targeted by other jurors to change her mind."
Miller is serving his sentence at Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola.
