Judge In Meek Mill Case Reportedly Being Investigated By FBI

 According to the New York Post reported Monday, November 13th, 2017, Judge Genece Brinkley, the center of Meek Mill’s probation violation case, has caught the attention of federal investigators and is now the focus of an FBI probe.

Brinkley’s alleged “extortionate demands” and “potential relationships” within the Philly music circuit are purportedly being investigated. According to the report, Brinkley may have a connection to Meek’s former manager, Charlie Mack, who denies knowing her.

Meek’s lawyer,  Joe Tacopina, has claimed that Brinkely showed “bias” towards the rapper when she sentenced him to two to four years for violating the terms of his probation. Tacopina also asserted that back in 2013, Brinkely allegedly requested that Meek remake Boyz II Men’s “On Bended Knee,” and give her a shoutout.

In handing down what Tacopina called a “ridiculous” sentence Brinkely went against the recommendations of the district attorney and Meek’s probation officer, both of whom requested no jail time.

“This is an investigation looking into a possible extortionate demand,” a source told the Post of Brinkely. “Undercover agents have been in the courtroom monitoring the Meek proceedings since April 2016.”

Multiple stars like Jay-Z, T.I., Common, Colin Kaepernick, and more have all spoken out about Meek’s sentences.

A rep for the FBI Philly field office said, “Per [Justice Department] policy, we neither confirm nor deny the existence of investigations.” Brinkley didn’t respond to us, and the court spokesperson didn’t return calls. Tacopina said of a possible FBI probe, “That is something that I absolutely do not have the ability to comment on.”
