#MeekMill held his #StandWithMeekMillRally yesterday in front of the Criminal Justice Center in Philly. He gathered his group of organizers to thank them for holding him down and to join him in demanding a change to the criminal justice system.
Thank you to everyone coming out and standing up for me. It means a lot to me, Meek began. I spent Fathers Day with my son last night. And, if it wasnt for people like yall I wouldnt be here today to spend time like that with my son. So, I wanna say thank yall.
Meek continued to explain that hes fighting for the many men in prison who didnt get to spend #FathersDay with their children this year.
I actually left a lot of men inside those walls that cant spend Fathers Day with their sons, he said. I wanted yall to know that I will stand up for yall family members through the rest of my music career, and the platform that I actually have to extend myself to make a difference in justice reform.
The rally was held just hours before his hearing with Judge Genece Brinkley whom Meek has been petitioning to reconsider the testimony of officer Reginald Graham who is under investigation for corruption. On Monday, Brinkley said that she needed more time to consider evidence that could support Meeks claims.
Via Billboard:
Mills attorneys said after the two-hour hearing Monday that the interactions with Brinkley were confrontational. One said Brinkley laughed at testimony from an expert witness, and another said her language during the hearing suggested that she had already decided to rule against Mills request.
Keep your head up, Meek!
