DA wants Meek Mill conviction tossed, but he remains jailed

PHILADELPHIA - Rapper Meek Mill’s drug and gun convictions should be thrown out and he should be granted a new trial, prosecutors said in court Monday in an announcement that led his supporters outside to break into an impromptu dance party. Judge Genece Brinkley refused to free him on bail Monday after the announcement from the Philadelphia District Attorney’s office during a hearing. She scheduled another hearing in June.
