Kim Kardashian-West is using her platform once again to shine light on failures of the U.S. criminal justice system, this time joining the fight to help free C-Murder (born Corey Miller) from imprisonment.
The brother of Master P, Corey – who was controversially sentenced to life in prison following the 2002 shooting death of a 16-year-old – saw his heart-wrenching story told in greater detail courtesy of BET’s warmly received 5-part documentary ‘No Limit Chronicles’ (which aired earlier this month). Despite multiple appeals and two key witnesses recanting their stories (alleging they were pressured by police to identify Corey as the shooter), he is still serving the sentence.
Kardashian-West, alongside GRAMMY-winning singer Monica (who is Corey’s former-girlfriend), made headlines this week for teaming together to work toward his release. In a show of appreciation, the No Limit rapper took to social media to acknowledge their efforts.

Taking to Instagram Monday (August 17), Miller revealed:
The caption reads:
“7 months ago I called @monicadenise & she conferenced in @kimkardashian ! I did not know Moses had been working to reach Kim. After our call for the first time in 19 years, I slept!! You can rest behind these walls but never do you actually sleep! My case had been stagnant for years! So I published multiple books to help feed my kids & pay lawyers bare minimum! I am a man so it was no one’s responsibility to save me & no one attempted to! But when you trust God he will send his angels! This message is To any man or woman fighting the injustices of the system , DONT EVER GIVE UP!!! And do as I am. Focus on the Blessings, Not the Betrayals! #TruStory#FREECoreyMiller”
Ahead of his post above, Monica and Kardashian took to their respective social media handles to issue statements regarding his predicament.
Monica is such a hoodrat. Where is that soundcloud album hoodrat? “Commitment” came out TWO years ago
You are dumb and ignorant. Periodt. Maybe your ass should sit in prison for ignant remarks
Monica too busy being a paralegal & not giving us fans an album.
The album is being released to soundcloud in November 20never
She posted today that she has 3 more songs to record before the album is finished.
Hilarious absolutely hilarious
Kim should be spending her time getting her husband into a mental hospital and instead of chasing social justice clout.
Remember Kim, everyone has seen your V.
Best to C Murder. I hope he gets out if he is innocent
The rest of y’all need Jesus
Right. The nerve to disrespect two women doing the work to raise awareness on mass incarceration and racial persecution by law enforcement. Then they wanna raise hashtags and feel good about themselves sitting at home doing nothing at all
How awesome!!! Great job Monica and Kim!!
El oh el! Bird alert. Monica never stopped loving this bum who was f****** her when she was a teenager. Arrested development is a mother f*****.
