Posted by Los Angeles, California – Corey Walker, one of the four teens accused of killing Pop Smoke in February 2020, learned he’ll be sitting in his prison cell until his trial date.
On Friday (September 17), a Los Angeles County judge denied bail to Walker. According to TheShadeRoom, Christopher Darden, Walker’s attorney, requested bail for his client, but prosecutors weren’t having any of it. They filed a motion saying Walker shouldn’t be eligible for bail based on the laws in California.
Curtis B. Rappe, the judge looking over the case, agreed with the prosecutors and kept Walker in custody. However, he did say the issue was no longer a capital case allowing prosecutors to have Walker avoid the death penalty. That doesn’t mean he’s out of his predicament, as Walker faces life in prison without parole.
