Did Codey Miller Rape His Mother’s Corpse?
May 14, 2009 by Jaded
Johnson City, Tennessee–There are very few details being released on this case, but, I promise you, the few details that are known are nauseating. First, I was like, ‘huh?’ Then I was like, ‘whaaaa?’ And then, all I could say was, ‘Ewwww! That’s nasty!’ This is the story of Codey Wayne Miller and his accomplice, Christopher Johnson. Miller, 17, is being accused of strangling his mother, 36-year-old Sherry Cooper, and sexually assaulting the corpse.
Codey Miller and Christopher Johnson
Detectives believe Miller strangled his mother last Thursday, raped her dead body, threw her in a trash can, and placed her in the backyard. Cooper’s body had been in the trash can for two days before it was discovered.
Codey Wayne Miller is being charged with first-degree murder, felony murder and abuse of a corpse. He is being held at the Upper East Tennessee Juvenile Detention Center pending a June 5 status hearing. The District Attorney plans to petition to have Miller tried as an adult in the case. If convicted as an adult, Miller faces life in prison. If the case remains in juvenile court, Miller could only be held until he is 19 years old. That’s a comforting thought….
Police have also arrested 36-year-old Christopher Johnson in the case. It is believed that he watched Miller murder Cooper and failed to intervene or contact authorities. Court documents state that Johnson retrieved the trash can and instructed the teen to put Cooper’s body in it. One, or both of them, then placed the trash can outside. For his role, Johnson is facing charges of felony murder and abuse of a corpse. His bond has been set at $150,000. If convicted, he could spend life behind bars.
I’m hoping that more details will be released after the autopsy, which is scheduled for Tuesday.

Dubya. Tee. Eff.
Rape your mother? Kill your mother? Rape a corpse? Kill your mother and rape her corpse? That kid got it up for his mother’s dead body? How does that happen?
Is the kid 17 too? Oh, and why do both perps have the same ears?
How many questions did I just ask? Obviously, I can not wrap my mind around this one. Ugh.

Oy! Here’s hoping that he gets charged in adult court. That is definitely a big boy crime, and two years just doesn’t cut it. He’s damaged for sure, and won’t be fixed.
Raping your mother’s corpse? That’s where I run screaming and try to scrub this little tidbit out of my brain. That’s fucked seriously fucked on almost every level.
Why? I wanna know why he killed her, why her raped her dead body. What exactly was the accomplices role, why didn’t he stop him? Johnson looks like he could overpower Miller with little effort. Did they tag team her? Ick, I’m gonna go throw up now.

I couldn’t of said it any better!

I’m still trying to figure out the charge against Johnson for abuse of a corpse. Did these two losers have a necrophilia gang-bang with Miller’s dead mother or is he being charged because he failed to intervene in Miller’s sexual abuse of a corpse?
Nasty, nasty, nasty. I hope that vile son is charged as an adult.

one word: ewwww
11:24 am on May 14th, 2009
WTF???? All I can say right now is, why?
12:52 pm on May 14th, 2009
That is just the opposite of the way everything should be. What an evil, sick, little bastard!
1:17 pm on May 14th, 2009
My words exactly.
Rest in peace Sherry Cooper. I bet you never saw this coming.
1:26 pm on May 14th, 2009
I am so creeped out by this kid. As if murdering his mom wasn’t bad enough, he has to have sex with her corpse…EEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW just doesn’t cut it for me.

Private MySpace showing him kissing. http://www.myspace.com/millercodey18

Ick. I pity any girl who had any sort of relationship with him in the past. I can’t imagine how gross I would feel to know I had kissed someone capable of this.
3:07 pm on May 14th, 2009
I was wondering about that……..
3:11 pm on May 14th, 2009
Putting a corpse into a garbage can would be abuse of a corpse even with none of the other stuff going on in the background. I really hope that was all he did.
3:38 pm on May 14th, 2009
Dear gawd.
Okay – y’all got me. THIS is a juvenile that most certainly cannot be rehabilitated. @_@

Athena, I can’t stop laughing at your comment.
7:17 pm on May 14th, 2009
“First, I was like, ‘huh?’ Then I was like, ‘whaaaa?’ And then, all I could say was, ‘Ewwww! That’s nasty!’”
Well said! I add sick fuck it’s you mother WTF are you thinking. Ewwww!

An article comment
From what I understand from those around this case there is a great deal the public doesn’t know about this case and it’s background. As horrible as this act is there were many many factors leading in this direction. The entire situation taken in its entirety is truly sad. There are many who are sickened, as I am, but not surprised.
10:43 pm on May 14th, 2009
What is going on with Tenn. lately-are they trying to catch up with Fl.????
6:00 am on May 15th, 2009
In this case, I could really give a shit about the background or the factors leading up to the final conclusion. I’ve heard of kids ’snapping’ and killing their parent/s after years of alleged abuse, that’s nothing new…but to fuck the corpse? There is absofuckingtively no excuse for that.
6:03 am on May 15th, 2009
Yes…that’s her.
6:32 am on May 15th, 2009
Based on the myspace, the mom seems kind of nice & normal. How did she end up with such idiot perverted offspring? Does he take after dear ol’ dad?
10:24 am on May 15th, 2009
this is one sick dude his own mother,,wow thats a blow to the mind,,,
11:31 am on May 15th, 2009
Why on earth would a 36 year-old man be hanging around with a 17 year-old boy, watching him strangle and rape his mother’s body? That’s as much WTF about the story for me as anything else is. I find it hard to imagine that Miller and Johnson were BFFs, just chillaxin’ around the house after school, when suddenly murder and necrophilia broke out. I also can’t imagine Johnson was the next-door neighbor, happened to glance casually over the fence to see the skinny kid next door engaging in shenanigans, and thought, “Hey, I should help my neighbor keep his yard looking nice by helping him dispose of that body, there.”
At first I thought maybe Johnson was the mother’s boyfriend, but then I found this in an article:
“The Johnson City Press reports that when police arrived at the scene, the woman’s boyfriend 58 year-old Tony Hyder was sitting on top of the body, crying.”

I think there’s more to this accomplice…not sure what, but I’m interested to see how it plays out
1:04 am on May 16th, 2009
Um….. There are fucking sick and twisted people and then there are people that need a fucking railroad spike to the brain to cure them. WTF is wrong with people??
10:50 am on May 16th, 2009
I admit I didn’t read the other comments bcs the headline of this article made me throw up in my mouth just a bit.
2:46 pm on May 16th, 2009
I was wondering what your opinion would be on this
6:47 pm on May 16th, 2009
This is so disturbing on so many levels, I don”t even know where to begin.
Seems there are major details missing at this time regarding WHY? But regardless, I don’t think the son can be fixed. I am sure a lot of Psychiatrists will come on board with this case stating the son had hatred issues with his mother. But this goes too far beyond comprehension. Hell, I hated my parents as a teen from time to time, but Murder and Necrophelia certainly never entered my mind as a viable solution. LOCK HIM UP AND DO NOT LET HIM OUT. Nor the crazy companion.

I just checked out her page.
Bet she was a cool mom.
This is sick and trajic.
3:34 pm on May 17th, 2009
Killing your mom is bad enough, but to rape her corpse just pushes up the ick factor. Then to dump her like she is a piece of garbage is unconscionable.
I hope both of these guys become prison garbage for what they did.
6:27 pm on May 19th, 2009
You know the guy is very bad when even Athena thinks he is a hopeless case. The Autopsy said her death was from strangulation.
Court Pict of “Christopher A. Johnson ”
http://www.johnsoncitypress.com/images/Pics/Articles/ChristopherJohnson34.jpg
A man charged with a Johnson City woman’s death and postmortem sexual assault will be evaluated to determine his mental status at the time of the offense and if he’s competent to stand trial.
Christopher A. Johnson, 36, 1355 Breedlove Ave., Memphis – charged with felony murder and abuse of a corpse – appeared in Washington County General Sessions Court in Johnson City Monday afternoon for just a few minutes while Judge James Nidiffer signed the order. Johnson’s court-appointed attorney, Jim Lonon, asked the court for the evaluation.
The Memphis transplant is charged along with 17-year-old Codey Wayne Miller in the May 7 strangulation death of Miller’s mother, Sherry Cooper, 36.
6:40 pm on May 19th, 2009
Christopher A. Johnson’s Myspace Page:
http://www.myspace.com/1spoirt
“The Memphis man had apparently moved to Johnson City just a few weeks before Cooper’s death, according to his MySpace page. His last post said he wanted someone to show him around town because his cousin was always busy. Johnson last logged into his site May 9″
He has some pretty good gang sign picts and one funny one of a white kid in what looks to be a ROTC uniform. I am pretty sure thats our 17 year old mommy choker / raper, Codey Wayne Miller. Makes me wonder how long they knew each other??? and what kind of relationship they really had???
7:01 pm on May 19th, 2009
His myspace makes him look gay or downlow.
Then, the last pic of Codey lookes eerie.
They were fucking, period.
I believe, in my heart, that Chris put this boy up to this.
And to have sex with her dead body?
Geez.
7:35 pm on May 24th, 2009
I clicked her my space (last logged on May 2, 2009 mood: Happy) I noticed a post (April 19, 09) by Ken, that Sophie died, I checked out ken’s site, wondering who Sophie is; for a matter of fact; doesn’t appear any of her space friends know yet she was murdered, Sherry is not in Ken’s family pictures but she is in Sophie and Chloe’s album, looks like they call her “Peanut”

Poor Sophie will be scared for life now that the thing is touching her
——————————
when i read the intro above, I thought that Christopher looked older then 17 then I was trying to figure out – how they were both named Miller. lol…
That last link does clear all that up. Thanks
None the less being killed at the hands of one of your children and stuffed in a can is beyond belief. What an ungrateful POS – the non family member needs to frrrrrry. To fuck your mama is bad to do after death is mental. This boy needs to be put out of his misery. – unimaginable that they would ever set him free.
12:21 pm on May 25th, 2009
