According to a New York Post news report, “the world’s hottest felon is now living the high life” (perhaps not that “high” life).
Now an ex-con who was jailed in 2014 for weapons offenses, Meeks’ Instagram account portrays a lifestyle far removed from gangs and guns.
Meeks recently posted a photo of himself in front of his mansion—exiting his Maserati. His transformation can easily be explained alliteratively: Meeks went from mugshot, to a modeling, to a Maserati, to a mansion.
Aside from the material things, Meeks seems focused on more important things, such as his modeling career—and his family.
If Meeks hasn’t disproved the old cliché that crime doesn’t pay, at least he is proving that not every mugshot tells the story of a life of crime…
