Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory, the notorious co-founder of the Black Mafia Family (BMF), has been released from federal prison and is now completing his sentence in a more comfortable setting in Florida.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons confirmed that he was transferred from FCI Coleman Low in Wildwood to a halfway house managed by the Miami Residential Reentry Management Office. This shift marks a significant change in his incarceration experience as he transitions into community confinement.
Big Meech was arrested in 2005 and subsequently sentenced to 30 years in prison in 2008 for drug trafficking and money laundering offenses. Earlier this year, a judge reduced his sentence by nearly three years, bringing him closer to his release. While the exact date of his official release is not disclosed, the fact that he is no longer housed in a federal prison is a notable development for both him and his supporters.

His attorney, Brittany K. Barnett, who co-founded the Buried Alive Project, expressed her joy over Big Meech’s new chapter after spending almost 20 years behind bars. Barnett highlighted that he utilized his time in prison for personal growth and self-improvement, allowing him to prepare for a new life outside of incarceration. This period of reflection and development may serve him well as he reintegrates into society.
The impact of Big Meech’s story continues to resonate in popular culture, especially through the efforts of rapper 50 Cent, who has kept the BMF narrative alive with a successful docuseries and TV series.
The series has gained traction, featuring guest appearances from prominent hip-hop artists, including Snoop Dogg, 2 Chainz, and Eminem, among others. This cultural phenomenon has solidified the BMF’s place in hip-hop history and storytelling.
As Big Meech settles into his new living arrangements, anticipation grows around the upcoming fourth season of the “BMF” series, which has already been confirmed. Fans and followers are curious to see if he will be released in time to witness the continued dramatization of his life and legacy on screen, further bridging the gap between his past and his future.
