JUDGE ADDS A DECADE ON TO MILLER'S JAIL TIME

Rapper COREY MILLER has had another decade added on to his current life sentence for second-degree murder in connection to an unrelated nightclub shooting.

C-Murder at the Premiere of Spike Lee's new documentary for HBO 'When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts'. New Orleans, Louisiana - 16.08.06

Miller, known in the industry as C-Murder, was charged with the slaying of a teen in a New Orleans club in 2002. He was given a life sentence in 2003, which was overturned in 2006 after he had spent three years in a Louisiana prison.

However, a second trial began in August (09), and the star was once again handed a life sentence.

In another blow to Miller, a Louisiana judge sentenced him to ten years behind bars on Tuesday (25Aug09) for an unrelated incident.

In May (09), Miller agreed to a plea deal with court officials by declaring no contest to two counts of attempted murder after he tried to shoot a nightclub owner and a doorman at a club in 2001 after he refused to be searched before entry.

He will serve the added 10 years consecutively to the time he will spend behind bars on the second-degree murder charge.

Although Miller is appealing the murder conviction, a judge has already thrown out a defence motion for a mis-trial.
