The grieving mother of murdered footballer Cody Fisher has spoken of the killer's shocking and calculated attempt to buy the family's silence in a desperate bid to secure a lighter sentence.
In an exclusive and emotionally charged interview, Tracy Fisher revealed the depths to which her son's convicted killer, Remy Gordon, was willing to sink. Just days before his sentencing for the brutal nightclub stabbing, Gordon's legal team approached the Fisher family with a staggering offer.
'They offered us money to stay quiet in court,' Tracy stated, her voice firm with resolve. 'They said if we didn't read our victim impact statements, he would get a lesser sentence. The audacity was breathtaking.'
The family's rejection was immediate and absolute. For them, no amount of money could ever compensate for the loss of their beloved 23-year-old son, a talented semi-professional player for Stratford Town and Bromsgrove Sporting.
A Mother's Unbreakable Vow for Justice
Tracy Fisher has become a formidable campaigner since Cody's tragic death on December 26, 2022. She is now spearheading a powerful movement, 'Cody's Law', petitioning the government to mandate metal detectors and better security measures at nightclubs and venues across the UK.
'This was not a fight. This was not a brawl. This was an execution,' she asserted, recalling the senseless violence that erupted at Birmingham's Crane nightclub. Her mission is clear: to prevent any other family from enduring the same unimaginable pain.
A Life Cut Short, A Legacy That Endures
Described by his mother as a 'gentle giant' with a heart of gold, Cody's promising future was stolen in an instant. The calculated nature of the attack, followed by the attempt to manipulate the judicial process, has only strengthened the family's determination to see true justice served.
The case has sent shockwaves through the community and highlighted urgent concerns about public safety. Tracy Fisher's courage in speaking out ensures that her son's name will be associated not with tragedy alone, but with a lasting push for change and accountability.
