Rapper C-Murder will spend life in prison after a conviction of second-degree murder in the nightclub shooting of a 16-year-old boy.

Relatives of C-Murder, whose real name is Corey Miller, began sobbing as the verdict was read Tuesday and were escorted out of the courtroom. Miller is the younger brother of rapper Percy Miller Jr., who is known as Master P.

Their father, Percy Miller Sr., said the family would seek an appeal. "My son didn't do that," he said.
