According to the New York Daily News, during the preliminary hearing for Corey Walker, the suspect in Pop Smoke’s murder, Carrasco took the witness stand and
cited the unnamed witness’s testimony.Pop Smoke, born Bashar Jackson, was taking a shower in a Los Angeles Airbnb on February 19, 2020, when the incident took place. An intruder placed a semiautomatic firearm against the witnesses’ forehead and allegedly told her, “Shut the f*** up. Do you want to die?”
“
She heard a struggle coming from the shower area and heard Mr. Jackson screaming. Mr. Jackson ran out of the bathroom, and then she heard a loud pop and [heard] Mr. Jackson fall to the ground,” Carrasco revealed at the hearing, adding, “Two other individuals began to kick him.”Continuing to detail the witness’ account, Carrasco continued, “Mr. Jackson gets up and run downstairs. She hears two more pops,” the detective said on the witness stand. “She follows Mr. Jackson, sees him on the ground and screams for Michael to call 911.”
