Free Meek

Meek Mill is a hip-hop superstar but got his start as a battle rapper on the streets of Philly's roughest neighborhoods. At age 19, a violent encounter with law enforcement sends him to jail and ensnares him in the justice system. He will spend the next 11 years trying to break free of its grasp.

Judge Genece Brinkley finds Meek guilty of gun and drug charges and sentences him to 11 ½ to 23 months in jail and 10 years of probation. Once released, Meek's music career explodes as he joins forces with Rick Ross and ROC Nation, but a series of probation violations lands him back in Brinkley's courtroom and back in jail. He's now part of a trap that he can't escape.

Meek struggles with probation as his personal life spirals out of control. After a battle with addiction, a brawl in an airport and an arrest for popping a wheelie, Judge Brinkley sends him to prison for 2-4 years. The case ignites tensions about racial injustice and protesters take to the streets while an investigation into the judge by Meek's defense team produces shocking revelations.

Private investigators take a deep dive into Meek's original arrest and discover new clues. Former cops share explosive allegations about Meek's arresting officer and the investigators learn that the version of events that was presented at Meek's trial may not be the truth. Meek's supporters feel a fresh sense of hope, but will the new revelations be enough to free Meek?

Protesters surround the courthouse as Judge Brinkley decides Meek's fate. Even prosecutors agree that his case should be overturned, but the Judge's decision leaves lawyers scrambling for a new plan. Meek finds himself at the center of a huge national movement as he struggles to overcome the trauma of his prison experience and create a legacy that could change the system forever.
