Meek Mill's lawyer, Joe Tacopina, breaks down Meek's legal situation with HNHH.

Meek Mill's legal scenario has been a hot topic for the past few months. Between allegations of bias from the convicting judge to corrupt cops allegedly lying on the stand, there's been a lot of background information on the case that didn't surface until recently. Meek's lawyer, Joe Tacopina, has been relaying messages on the incarcerated rapper's behalf to the public. Since Meek received his unjust two to four year sentence for probation violation, Tacopina has kept everyone updated on Meek's well-being and the case in general. 

We recently dropped off a bit of the interview with Meek Mill's lawyer explaining how police corruption played a factor in Meek Mill's trial. Today, we drop off the interview in its entirety. Meek's lawyer gets in depth about his clients case, the outpouring support from people like Drake and other celebrities and Judge Genece Brinkley's strange infatuation. In addition, he also responds to the Judge's attorney's recent interview where he bragged about Brinkley releasing the transcript.

"What the judge did was hire a criminal defense lawyer for herself and she showed the sealed transcript to the criminal defense lawyer. And let him opine as to whether she should release it. Which is completely improper." He said, "If it's sealed, it's sealed. You can't show a third party because its your personal attorney. It's a sealed transcript. That's a serious violation. And we know that had happened because the lawyer went out and bragged about how he was the one who told her to release the transcript after he read it."

Tacopina gives us a lot more insight to Meek Mill's legal scenario and the background information pertaining to it in this in-depth interview.
