Recently unveiled court documents show that Flenory’s attorney, Brittany K. Barnett, filed an early release petition for the former crime boss last month that could see him released three years early, The Detroit News reports. Citing Amendment 821 of the United States Criminal Code, Barnett argued that Flenory should be released earlier than his latest reduced sentence, per new sentencing guidelines.
His son, Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr., has since taken to social media to express his joy over the good news surrounding his father’s potential prison release.

Flenory Jr. portrays his father in the Starz’ hit scripted series BMF. The show was recently greenlit for season 4 amid the season 3 premiere on March 1. Flenory Jr. recently spoke with BLACK ENTERPRISE about his ability to humanize his family’s story in the hit series and learn about his family history that took place years before his birth.
“When I came to set, it was like a clash. Like, I was going to tell everything about my roots and about my family that I didn’t know. And with that, I get to play my father and still live up to his name.”
