The #FreeMeek movement has been going strong since the rapper was incarcerated at the top of November. While several motions to have been filed for his release, none of them have been successful. Much of his unjust sentence is due to the judge that was on the case. The prosecutor, D.A. and his probation officer were against sending him to jail. It looks like the rapper might be getting released sometime soon and it doesn't look like anyone's fighting against it.
According to TMZ, Meek Mill has a good chance of getting his sentence reversed and the D.A. has no intentions of trying to stop it. Due to the police corruption scandal, the District Attorney says there's a "strong showing of likelihood" that his conviction will be overturned. There's been hundreds of other cases that have been reversed due to the noted police corruption and the prosecutor thinks that Meek's case with also follow the same path.
Prosecutors now believe there's no point to hold Meek in prison without bail.
His mother shared a statement to the publication about his current case and the possibilities of his release.
"I would like to thank the Philadelphia District Attorney’s office for carefully evaluating my son’s matter and not opposing the request for bail. The fact that Robert’s entire conviction could be overturned is a blessing and I pray that God gives Judge Brinkley the wisdom to make the right decision and allow my son to return home to his family. I truly believe justice will prevail.” She said.
