Welp … it could be worse. If you’ve been following the saga of Meek Mill’s probation woes, then you may be aware that he was meant to play a New Year’s Eve show in Las Vegas with his girlfriend Nicki Minaj, but he’s now been courted ordered to instead be in Philadelphia performing community service under the watchful eye of his probation officer, Treas Underwood.
Meek has been ordered to remain in Philly after a series of hearings in his hometown over violation of probation from a 2008 conviction, and been told by a judge to stay put till a Feb. 5 sentencing.
But ….. Page Six reports that insiders wonder whether Mill’s probation woes are in part due to his probation’s officer’s “obsession” with having a famous client.
“She keeps showing up to his community service, which is not common,” a source told reporters. “She has 122 other cases, but she has it out for him. Probation is supposed to be a rehabilitative thing, but she will do anything to keep him on probation.”
Sources claim Mill and Underwood have a history, though she won’t acknowledge personally knowing the rapper before taking his case.
“She’s from his neighborhood and he had an altercation with her cousin Coo when they were younger,” said a source.
Supposedly Meek has been trying to get her removed from his case ever since.
A giggling Underwood first pretended to be someone else when Page Six reached her for comment, but then ’fessed up it was her and wished us a happy holiday before directing us to call her boss, who did not comment.
My two-cents: I’m typically a stickler for the law but in this Meek case, I see cause for exception. He’s no threat to the community. His whereabouts are extremely public and they mostly involve club dates and studio time. This relentless back and forth is ridiculous. Surely out of 122 cases, there are some people who need and deserve more attention for the sake of the community’s safety.
