Meek Mill Labeled ‘A Danger to the Community’ as Bail Is Denied

Meek Mill's legal issues continue to go from bad to worse. Last week, a petition to free Meek was denied, and according to TMZ, Judge Genece Brinkley has denied his request for bail.

Documents regarding Meek's case say that Brinkley not only called him a "flight risk," but described him as "a danger to the community." There's no indication on how Brinkley came to either of these conclusions, or why she'd apparently assume he'd used something called "Fast Flush" to help him achieve clean drug tests.

Many have dived into Meek's case and admitted he's not been a shining star while on parole, but there's a reason why the FBI was investigating Brinkley. There have been claims of bias against Meek Mill from Brinkley, and an insane claim that she asked Meek to remake "On Bended Knee" by Boyz II Men and give her a shout out on the track. There's also word she wanted him to leave Roc Nation for a company that a friend of hers runs.

In a recent interview, Rick Ross pointed out that we need to "use Meek Mill’s attention to shed light on a problem we that we know is bigger than Meek Mill." Hopefully, for Meek's sake and the countless others who are still locked into the system on some bullshit, we can pull through and find a way to end this cycle.
