Remy Gordon and Kami Carpenter await sentencing after being found guilty of murdering Cody Fisher at CRANE on Boxing Day 2022.


Kami Carpenter and Remy Gordon have been convicted in the Boxing Day 2022 murder of Cody Fisher at Birmingham nightclub CRANE.

Gordon, 23, and Carpenter, 22, were first arrested two days after the fatal stabbing, which followed a separate incident in which Fisher “brushed past” Gordon in a crowd at the Solihull club Popworld, according to the BBC. Following a ten-week trial, the Birmingham Crown Court found the two men guilty murder.

A third defendant, 19-year-old Reegan Anderson, was convicted of a lesser charge of affray, or group fighting in public. All three await sentencing at the time of writing.

According to court hearings, the physical contact Fisher made with Gordon at Popworld on Christmas Eve 2022 was “unavoidable.” Prosecutor Michael Duck KC argued that Gordon was looking for trouble and had tracked down Fisher at to make him “seek his forgiveness.”

On the same night of the Popworld incident, Gordon sent messages in a Snapchat group trying to get help identifying Fisher so that he could “shank him up.” In other messages, Gordon and Carpenter discussed how to smuggle masks and weapons into CRANE.

Gordon and Carpenter approached Fisher at CRANE shortly after 11:30 PM GMT with several other men wearing masks. They beat and stabbed him, with one puncture piercing the main valve of his heart.

Cody Fisher was a semi-pro footballer who played with a number clubs and also taught physical education in schools. He is survived by his girlfriend, Jess Chatwin, and best friend, Dan Vann — both of whom were with him at CRANE — as well as his mother, Tracey Fisher.

Prior to the incident, CRANE was a fixture among Birmingham nightlife that played host to performances by artists like Hannah Wants, Patrick Topping, and Danny Howard. According to DJ Mag, the club has had its license temporarily suspended since January 2023 and still awaits a decision on its bid that March to get it reinstated.
