Pop Smoke M*rder Case Update: Defendant Pleads Guilty, Sentenced To 29 Years In Prison

In two weeks, it will mark five years since Pop Smoke was shot and killed during a home-invasion robbery. One of the four attackers was sentenced to four years in 2023, and on Tuesday, February 4, another — the only adult of the group — pleaded guilty and faces 29 years in state prison.

Corey Walker, now 24, was 19 at the time of the murder and charged with voluntary manslaughter and two counts of home-invasion robbery. He’ll be sentenced on Feb. 21. Initially charged with murder, Walker could have faced life in prison without parole.

Pop Smoke, born Bashar Jackson, was 20 when killed. The attackers broke into his LA Airbnb to steal his diamond-studded Rolex and Cuban link chain, later selling the stolen items for just $2,000.

May Pop Smoke rest in peace.
