According to an online collection of mugshots – purportedly taken from Miami/Dade County criminal reports, Lil Meech – real name Demetrius Flenory – appears to have been picked up in Miami over the weekend, and charged with multiple counts of fraud, and scamming. Assuming the report is accurate, so far he’s only facing Florida State charges, and not federal charges.
But he could be facing fed charges soon. Given the nature of the fraud crimes that he’s purportedly been charged with, the FBI may have jurisdiction over this case, sources tell Media Take Out.
The two crimes that Lil Meech has been charged with, according to the online mugshot report, are Organized Fraud in the First Degree, and Grand Theft in the First Degree.
“Organized fraud” is ranked as level 3 under the Florida Punishment Code. The punishment is different based upon the value of the property defrauded. In Lil Meech’s case, the fraud he’s charged with is more than $50,000 so it is a first-degree felony punishable up to 30 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
And that’s not his only charge. He also appears to be charged with grand theft in the first degree (Over $100k). Media Take Out confirmed that “Grand Theft” is classified as a first degree felony, punishable by up to 30 years in prison, with a maximum fine of $10,000.
If he’s convicted of all charges, the actor will face up to 60 years in prison.
