Big Meech, the infamous cofounder of the Black Mafia Family, is officially out of federal prison and has been moved to a halfway house to continue serving his sentence. A recent picture of him has surfaced online, showing him with his arm slung over another man’s shoulder, dressed in regular street clothes rather than a prison uniform.
Meech, who was arrested in 2005 on charges related to drug trafficking and money laundering, was sentenced to 30 years in prison in 2008. Earlier this year, a judge shortened his sentence by about three years, bringing some hope for his eventual release back into society.
The life story of Big Meech serves as the inspiration behind the 50 Cent-produced series “BMF”. His son, Lil Meech, even plays a role in the series, which was renewed for a fourth season earlier this year. Whether Big Meech will have the opportunity to appear on the show alongside the likes of Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 2 Chainz, or Yung Miami remains to be seen.
Despite his past troubles, Big Meech seems to be in better spirits in the halfway house compared to his time in federal prison. It remains to be seen when he will be fully free to reenter society, but for now, he is taking steps towards that goal.
