Where is Big Meech Now? Latest 2022 Info!

Where is Big Meech now: Black Mafia Family (BMF), a new criminal drama on Starz, debuted on September 26th, 2021. It was inevitable that the series would be successful when Snoop Dogg (who needs no introduction) played a literal pastor and executive producer Curtis Jackson (who we know as Grammy-winning rapper 50 Cent) got involved.

Moreover, the show is based on a true event; it follows two brothers, raised in Detroit, as they create a drug empire from the bottom up. The mystery is increased by that.

Demetrius Flenory and his brother Terry, better known by their aliases “Big Meech” and “Southwest T,” respectively, founded one of the most infamous drug trafficking and money-laundering organizations in the United States in the 1980s.

“Lil Meech,” aka Demetrius Flenory Jr., portrays his kingpin father, “Big Meech,” portrayed by Da’Vinchi (you can’t make this stuff up). Big Meech’s own kid, now 21 years old, is a promising rapper and actor (50 Cent urged him to pursue acting at the age of 17), which is great to see, but where is Big Meech himself these days?

Who is Big Meech?

Meech “Big” Biggs was born in Cleveland, Ohio, in June of 1968. He and his brother Terry founded the Black Mafia Family, a major narcotics operation responsible for the delivery of many kilograms of cocaine throughout several states.

This group of states includes Alabama, California, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, and Tennessee. When Terry and his brother had a falling out in 2001, Terry moved to Los Angeles to start his own business.

Where is Big Meech now?

The fact that Big Meech is serving time for his and Southwest T’s 2005 arrest in Oregon is hardly shocking, given that we already told you that BMF is about Big Meech’s infamous narcotics and money-laundering empire.

In addition to their massive drug operation, the brothers also established BMF Entertainment, a record label, in 2000, and Big Meech, a magazine, in 2002, both of which proved to be lucrative money-laundering outlets.

About $270 million in revenues were made by the cocaine network, and over 500 people were employed, as reported by The Detroit News. Mind-bogglingly, it all began with the bros peddling tiny amounts of coke in high school.

Why was Big Meech locked up?

After being found guilty of conducting one of the greatest drug trafficking and money laundering operations in Michigan’s history, both brothers were given life sentences in prison in 2008.

Due to changes made to the United States Sentencing Guidelines in Amendments 782 and 788, Big Meech will be released from prison early in 2028. These changes affect all drug offenses committed before November 2014.

In addition, he was spotted engaging in altruistic activities in October 2021, which he hoped would contribute to his case for an early release. On September 26, his son, Demetrius Flenory Jr., played the part of his father on a Starz drama based on their life from Curtis ’50 Cent Jackson and writer/executive producer Randy Huggins.

Is Big Meech Still Alive?

Big Meech is still alive today. He was arrested and is currently serving time for his involvement in the narcotics trade. Big Meech’s birthday is June 21st, 1968 and he was born in Cleveland, Ohio. He and his brother Terry “Southwest T” Flenory created BMF in 1989 in southwest Detroit, and by 2000, they had established the cocaine distribution sales in the United States through their Los Angeles- and Mexico-based drug supply and drug cartels.

Those who have been wondering, “Is Big Meech Still Alive?” can rest assured: he was arrested in 2005, along with Terry, and is currently serving time in an Oregon prison.
