A jailhouse visit. Today a philadelphia judge gives her side. In court filings, she says she refuses to let Rapper Meek Mill out on bail because she fears hes a flight risk, saying hes facing significant jail time. He had a 2017 probation violation. More than ten years ago he was charged in a drug and assault case. The judge says that williams used a dirt bike for drug sales back in 2007 and in 2017 when he popped wheelies on a new york city street, he was again on a dirt bike. She said the artists has failed drug screenings while on probation and says in an unscheduled probation visit to his home, he tested positive for drugs and was in possession of fast flush. Its unclear if he used that to mask his urine since this had been a current theme for his violations while on probation. And defense lawyers followed up saying that the judge should recuse herself saying that there is an fbi filing investigating her handling of this case. Reporting live, deanna durante, nbc 10 news.
