In another post, Boosie further added: "LOUISIANA CAN I GET A PARDON?"

Meek had been convicted on firearms and drug charges back in 2008. He also received a two-to-four-year prison sentence for violating his probation a decade later.

I’m only gone do more for my community on god,” Meek wrote on social media after the pardon.

In total, Wolf has now pardoned 2,540 Pennsylvanians since taking office in 2015.

“I have taken this process very seriously — reviewing and giving careful thought to each and every one of these 2,540 pardons and the lives they will impact,” Wolf said in a statement. “Every single one of the Pennsylvanians who made it through the process truly deserves their second chance, and it’s been my honor to grant it.”

He continued: “A record prevents positive forward motion in a person’s life, and can spark a repetitive cycle of defeat. I firmly believe that with restored rights, pardoned Pennsylvanians prove themselves by stepping up and giving back to our communities.”
