Details On Corey Walker’s Guilty Plea For Pop Smoke’s Tragic Murder

According to Rolling Stone, Corey Walker faces a potential 29-year prison sentence at his upcoming hearing on Feb. 21. Whatever it turns out to be, the sentence includes two years each for the manslaughter and robbery charges, which will run at the same time.

On Wednesday, Feb. 5, prosecutors added a voluntary manslaughter charge, citing aggravating factors like premeditation and “high degree of cruelty, viciousness, and callousness.” Walker also admitted to robbing a woman at the home during the incident.

Prosecutors initially charged Walker with murder, two robbery counts, and burglary. If convicted, he could have ended up with a life sentence without parole. When authorities arrested Walker in July 2020, they warned that he could face the death penalty since Pop Smoke’s fatal shooting occurred during an alleged robbery.
