Philadelphia rapper and Dreamchasers boss, Meek Mill, could be a free man very soon.
The Philadelphia Enquirer reports that the District Attorney’s Office said in court Monday, April 16, that due to allegations of misconduct by Reginald Graham, the arresting officer in Meek's 2008 drug and gun case, the conviction should immediately be vacated and he should be granted a new trial.
That would allow the "Dreams and Nightmares" hit maker, born Robert Williams, to be freed from prison in the meantime.
Despite that recommendation, Common Pleas Judge Genece Brinkley, who sentenced the 30-year old in November to 2-4 years in prison for a probation violation, did not agree. Instead, she scheduled another hearing for June, and she refused to hear arguments from Mill’s attorneys that he should be let out on bail.
One of Meek's attorneys, Brian McMonagle, said his client was "elated" by the DA's decision.
McMonagle added that his team would be filing motions with higher courts Monday seeking to secure Meek's release “immediately.”
