Meek Mill’s 2008 Conviction Thrown Out, New Trial Granted

Meek Mill is getting a second shot at justice — his 2008 gun conviction was just thrown out … and he’s being granted a new trial AND a new judge to re-fight the charge.

A panel of judges handed down their decision Wednesday in Pennsylvania Superior Court — saying Meek does in fact deserve a new trial, with a new jury … and most importantly a new judge who ISN’T Judge Genece Brinkley … who many believe had it out for him the first time around.

Meek celebrated the decision on social media, writing … “As of right now I’m not on probation and I am not a felon anymore,” adding a bunch of praying hands. He went on to say, “today was mega!!!”

As we reported, the key witness in the case turned out to be a dirty cop.  Even the prosecutor wanted a new trial, but Judge Brinkley wouldn’t budge.  This time around a panel of 3 judge who were not previously involved in the case unanimously made the decision to throw out the conviction.

Meek just said, “I’d like to thank the Pennsylvania Superior Court judges for their wisdom and their transparency in reviewing my case, unanimously overturning my conviction and granting me a new trial.  The past 11 years have been mentally and emotionally challenging, but I’m ecstatic that justice prevailed.”
