Meek Mill’s Conviction Could Be Overturned Today
Story Via XXL- Meek Mill could have his 2008 gun and drugs conviction overturned today.
On Tuesday afternoon (July 16), Meek will appear in front of the Pennsylvania Superior Court without Judge Genece Brinkley, who denied his first attempt last Summer, to vacate the original ruling and get a new trial. Meek wants his gun and drug conviction overturned because his arresting officer, Reginald Graham, has been implicated in police corruption scandals in Philadelphia.
Graham reportedly gave false testimony in several of his cases including Meek's. Graham reportedly testified that Meek had pointed a gun at officers at the time he was arrested. Meek vehemently denied the claims and even Graham's fellow officer, Jerold Gibson, corroborated Meek's side of the story.
According to CBS' Philadelphia affiliate, other cases involving Officer Graham have been overturned, so Meek thinks his own case should be, too.
The hearing and all of the events related to it have been hanging over Meek's head for a while now. In an interview CBS News posted today (July 16), Meek tells Gayle King about everything he's been through from the unfair reason why he was arrested in the first place to his newfound dedication to criminal justice reform. Meek also revealed how his current probation status has affected his family life so far.
"My son lived in New Jersey, but I lived in Philadelphia, and the bridge is [a] 15-minute ride. It's just a bridge," explained Meek, who says he had to ask his probation officer for permission to leave the city.

The Game Music Royalties Seized To Pay Off $7 Million Sexual Assault Judgement
Story Via The Blast - A judge has ordered that rapper The Game won’t see a dime of his music royalties until a $7 million judgment is paid off.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, a Los Angeles judge granted a motion brought by Priscilla Rainey, which will allow her to collect any money that comes in for The Game from his record label or royalties paid to him.
The order states, “Any and all rights, title, and interest of Defendant from the following companies in the form of, among other things, commission, royalties, contract receivables, deferred compensation, income, wages, payroll, salary, and accounts receivable: Sound Exchange, Inc., 733 10th Street NW, 10th Floor, Washington, D.C. 20001; and Entertainment One U.S. LP, Attn: Michael Healy, 22 Harbor Park Drive, Port Washington, NY 11050. "
The judge said any money owed to The Game will be paid directly to Rainey. The order warns the rapper if he fails to comply with the court order he may be found in contempt of court.
Earlier this year, Rainey asked a judge to assign her all rights, title, and royalties to any money or payments owed to The Game. She explained The Game is set to release his new album "Born to Rap" later this year.
Rainey said he still owes her $7,254,123.18 on the court judgment she won and wants all his "Born to Rap" royalties to be paid to her until the debt is settled.
She also pointed out that the rapper has blasted her on social media and publicly claimed he has no intention of paying her. Rainey asked for the court to award her the royalties.
Priscilla Rainey was a contestant on The Game's VH1 reality show "She’s Got Game." In her 2015 lawsuit, she claimed that during production the rapper sexually assaulted her by forcefully reaching his hand inside her dress to rub her bare vagina and buttocks.
A jury awarded her $7 million in damages.
Rainey has accused the rapper of not paying a dime on the judgment and refusing to turn over information about his finances.
