This morning ton’s of Meek’s supporters crowded outside the courthouse waiting to see how this case was going to turn out. Meek Mill‘s prosecutors fought for his drug conviction to be vacated, which would set the rapper free.. but, once again, the judge felt otherwise.

Today in court, Philly’s D.A. office asked the judge Geneva Brinkley to release the 2008 conviction but she disagreed to sign off and scheduled a hearing for June. This means Meek Mill has to sit through another month and a half in prison. Thanks to the judge, most of Philly’s pissed off and let down that the conviction wasn’t tossed. If she had signed off, Meek’s probation violation would be out the window and he would be released from the PA prison where he’s sentenced 2-4 years. It seems like nothing’s changing Judge Brinkley’s mind, not even the district attorney. Unfortunately even though Meek is a prisoner of politics, but guess they can’t stop him! We ain’t ever gonna stop screaming “FREE MEEK” not til our lungs bleed!
