According to The Associated Press, District Judge Hans Liljeberg gave Miller, 38, the mandatory life sentence after the onetime No Limit Records rap star’s conviction in the 2002 shooting of 16-year-old fan Steve Thomas at a now-closed nightclub in Harvey, Louisiana.
Miller, who changed his rap name to C. Miller during the trial, was found guilty in the case on Tuesday morning, but Liljeberg made the jury return to deliberations because he suspected they had rushed their verdict to end deliberation. The rapper was convicted in 2003 in the same case but had that conviction overturned on appeal.
Thomas was a high school student who idolized Miller and his rapper brothers, No Limit founder Percy “Master P” Miller and Vishonn “Silkk the Shocker” Miller, and had even made some gold fronts out of golden ashtrays he got from work as an homage to the hometown hip-hop heroes. On the night of the shooting, Thomas told his father he was going to a movie but used a fake ID to go to the Platinum Club, knowing Miller would be there for a rap competition, in which Thomas performed, according to courtroom testimony.
