DETROIT After spending two years awaiting trial, Demetrius "Big Meech" Flenory pleaded guilty Nov. 19 to laundering drug money and running a continuing criminal enterprise. His plea ended a 15-year investigation into his role in the $270 million multistate cocaine ring the Black Mafia Family.
Meech, a 39-year-old hip-hop entrepreneur and Detroit native who ran BMF's Atlanta hub, stood with his hands clasped behind his back and admitted to U.S. District Court Judge Avern Cohn that he "supervised" the drug ring. (BMF was the subject of a three-part series published by CL last year.)
"I was the leader of a few individuals that was involved in this case," he told Cohn in a low, soft voice.
While a conviction on a continuing criminal enterprise charge carries a mandatory life sentence, Meech's guilty plea means he could face as little as 20 years. A sentencing date wasn't set.
The plea deal didn't include a cooperation agreement, meaning he won't be called to testify against his remaining co-defendants, including his brother, alleged BMF co-leader Terry "Southwest T" Flenory.
Only the Flenory brothers were charged under the continuing enterprise statute. BMF's second-in-command, Chad "J-Bo" Brown, pleaded guilty in April to cocaine and money laundering; he was sentenced last week to 15 years in prison. Brown's is the most stringent of any sentence handed down in the case so far. Like Meech, Brown refused to sign a cooperation agreement, which would have landed him a reduced sentence.
Meech is the 26th defendant to plead guilty in an indictment that charged 41 alleged co-conspirators. His brother and five other co-defendants are scheduled for trial Nov. 26. The remaining co-defendants are expected to plead guilty at a later date.
At a separate hearing held hours before Meech's plea, Cohn discussed the upcoming trial with prosecutors and defense. One of the issues defense attorneys raised is the government's intent to keep some of its witnesses secret. Terry's attorney, William Daniel, asked if the identities of three of those witnesses would be revealed. Assistant U.S. Attorney Dawn Ison replied that she would identify them a week before their scheduled testimony in the trial, which is expected to last six weeks.
"It may be that you should re-examine that," the judge said.
Soon after, Ison pointed out that most of the witnesses already had been identified in a document shared with defense attorneys. "There's a veritable wealth of witnesses already included on the government's list," she said.
Only three of the co-defendants who've pleaded guilty have agreed to cooperate. In addition, at least three others who haven't pleaded guilty are expected to cooperate. And BMF associates charged in other jurisdictions, including Atlanta, cut deals in exchange for testimony, too.
To date, more than 150 alleged BMF associates have been charged in more than a dozen indictments in at least seven states. Two of those cases were brought by the U.S. attorney's office in Atlanta, and one is in its early stages. Among those charged in that indictment is the rapper Barima "Bleu DaVinci" McKnight, and BMF's alleged third-in-command, Fleming "Ill" Daniels. Daniels also faces a murder charge out of Fulton County.
BMF associates have been arrested in connection with at least three violent attacks in Atlanta, including the 2004 shooting in the parking lot of a Midtown club with which Daniels is charged. That case has not yet been scheduled for trial.
What's more, Mayor Shirley Franklin's ex-son-in-law, who was sentenced last year to life in prison for cocaine charges related to BMF, is under investigation for his alleged role in the murder of his co-defendant and the co-defendant's girlfriend. The mayor's daughter is also being investigated for what she might have known about her then-husband's cocaine ring.

WOW!!!!! Was not expecting a guilty plea from Meech at all. Wonder what happened to all the "death before dishonor, no man can separate what we create, code of honor" sayings and rules that these guys used to say & supposedly live by? & again i must say THANK YOU! Mara Shalhoup & Creative Loafing. Great story and i hope we still get the rest of the updates as they are made available. Mara if i may suggest you should consider going even further & writing a book about the Black Mafia Family. i know i would buy it....
WOW, thanks so much Mara. You have covered this entire story like no other. BRAVO!!! I can't believe he pleaded guilty!!
GOOD JOB LAW ENFORCEMENT PEOPLE! THESE KIDS OUT HERE NEED TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU SELL DOPE AND GET CAUGHT. IT IS GOOD THESE PEOPLE ARE OFF THE STREETS, NOW THEY NEED TO GET SOME MORE. THERE KIND HAS DESTROYED, AND STILL IS DESTROYING COMMUNITIES AROUND THE COUNTRY. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. THEN PEOPLE LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT MORE AND MORE JAILS BEING BUILT. THEY NEED THEM BECAUSE THESE THUGS NEED TO BE OUT OF SIGHT AND OUT OF MIND, PERIOD!!!
MAN, Y'ALL PEOPLE ARE SICK AT HEART. THIS MAN AIN'T WORTHY OF NOTING AT ALL. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT HIS KIND HAS CONTRIBUTED TO THE GRAVE CONDITION OF BLACK COMMUNITIES AROUND THE COUNTRY, AND WORLD. WHY NOT PLEAD GUILTY? WELL, MAYBE HE SHOULD NOT HAVE, AND HE COULD HAVE GOTTEN LIFE, WHICH WOULD HAVE SERVED HIM BETTER. THINKING ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE HE AND HIS CREW PUT TO DEATH? "WAGES FOR SINNING IS DEATH."
I GUESS Y'ALL WILL SEE HIM ON BET'S GARBAGE "AMERICAN GANGSTER."
Mara you have been very thorough in coving this story but in your callous efforts to get your name out there you have been incredibly irresposible to the efforts being put forth by each individual who is taking there life into their own hands by agreeing to cooperate with the government. You seem to glorify Meech and all he has done and crucify the people who are trying to do the right thing. Have you ever stopped to consider that these witnesses have families and all you have done is escalate a situation in the streets for these people. Meech is a grown man and made penitentuary moves while in the street and did what he wanted to do. I recall him saying how if he was to die tomorrow it would be alright, cause there is nothing he hasn't done. He had a good run, now its time to pay back the government. He's a smart man, he knew any way you sliced it, he was going to do time, but instead of rolling the dice and getting life, he accepted the charge he was hit with agreed on a number so he could start his time and be back on the street by the time he is 58. At the same time, the people who have agreed to cooperate are doing the same thing. Doing what they have to do so they can get home to their families. That is what's truly important....your family not the money you tried to get cause eventually it gets spent.
It appears that many are mistaking the concept of taking a plea and cooperating. They are two entirely different things. You can take a plea and not dishonor the code by cooperating. So I am quite sure Meech still believes in Death Before Dishonor. The reason he took a plea is because he is smart. The government has a 95% conviction rate the sentence he faced was LIFE in prison. Rather then tell on his associates he decided to face his punishment and get on with it. Keep in mind as Mara has so thoroughly reported 95% of all the evidence in this case was against Terry, however they would not give Meech a trial separation- he knew the jury would see no difference between him and his brother and in order to create that difference in their minds his lawyers would have had to put the blame on Terry to create a doubt in their mind about Meech and evidently this was not something that Meech was willing to do- after all whether they were speaking or not they still have the same mother. Taking a plea was the most honorable thing Meech could have done at this point. All that matters is he didn't cooperate- Death before dishonor doesn't mean you have to go out in a blaze or rot in jail for the rest of your life- it means don't cooperate and taking a plea is not cooperating it is being smart. And as far as him getting what he deserves- I won't even go there but I will tell you all this: I'd rather live in a neighborhood with a bunch of Meechs then most people- who lack character and integrity. He lived a lifestyle that many would not agree with and yes he promoted it to the very end but if it wasn't him it would be someone else; the government has set it up that way. So while some of you are out their judging this man for his actions your time would be better spent taking a better look at your society and government and trying to figure out why we keep allowing them to set up circumstances that create individuals like Meech.
SOME OF YOU NEED A LIFE.......IF YOU KNOW NOTHING.....SAY NOTHING! NOW AT THIS POINT THERE SHOULD BE ABSOLUTE SILENCE!
Firstly......thank you SAYWORD for being so real about what it really is. And for those who don't truly know the truth about the situation, the only reason why it APPEARS that most of the evidence is against T is because the FEDS only grabbed the "263" half of the family. BMF is still on the street! That is why Meech could honestly say he "supervised" only a few people that were apprehended. Like I said earlier, he is a smart individual and while still saving face, he's doing what he has to do to come home to his family. The one I feel bad for thru all of this is "FAT-BOY", because he honestly was trying to get out the game and because of the flashy lifestyle his brother had drew alot of unnecessary attention to the family and the government seems to believe that they have broken down BMF..... but they have yet to touch the tip of the ice-berg.
The government set itup that way........... pitiful that there are many people who believe this is the case. Prosecutors don't offer plea deals when they hadve Mr Hard Street Code nailed to the wall. The Feds didn't have to offer a plea deal, they had him stone cold, so I wonder why the plea deal? Is it possible that Meech approached them? Imagine a scene like this one......"Hey. man, I'll give you information on two condiions. 1) Make everybody think you got the info on government corruption, money laundering adn how this sytem works from one fo the other informants so I can keep my "cred" and the Columbians won't slice my throat in jail or shoot me in the head when I get out. 2) Don't kill my sorry ass. He probably realized he would live a lot logner in Federal lockup than on the street anyway. Soldier, my ass. Soldiers kill to protect the innocent.
THATS REAL FAM. WWW.MYSPACE.COM/EeMUSIC81 to hear the "FREE BIG MEECH" single. MARA HAS DONE A GREAT JOB COVERING THIS STORY.
Dale your very misinformed. Your little scenario would be plausible if it was regarding any one else besides Meech. the government may have had a few people on this case stone cold but it wasn't meech. the government doesn't offer high profile people like Meech deals when they have a sure case against them. And if Meech would have cooperated they would have reported it on every news cast they could just to remind "niggas" to stay in their place. Men like meech make them look like fools and they they don't give a damn about Meech's street credibility... thats the first thing they want to take from someone after they flip them and take their manhood. there was no way in hell they would have flipped him and not leaked it. Ask your Girl Mara if he cooperated she was in the courtroom.
how much time will meech get,can anyone guess. And why are they asking for so much money . The biggest question is why dont they want any information about his connect. hmmm
Meech wouldn't cooperate in the courtroom so Mara wouldn't know. I never said the gov offered a plea, I said they may have accepted HIS offer in exchange for HIS info. If you were the FBI or DEA and Meech said "I'll give you my supplier if you take him out later and make it look like someone else gave him up. You give me 25 to make it look like I didn't flip, but stood my ground as a real soldier. It's a WIN-WIN". Yeah, the cops are like that, burning informants so that everybody wants to cooperate in the future while turning down gold mines of intelligence. The cops are just like everybody else, give them what they want and you can get what you want. Simple. Clue, you take the manhood to get the flip, not the other way around. Yes, the cops sure look like fools and Meech is the clear winner. hahahahaha
Big Brah - as to the supplier, either Meech is standing strong and not telling them.... or he followed my scenario and flipped so the Feds can take the supplier down later. If he gave them up today, it would take months to set up the bust.
first....second...and third.....Meech is looking at minimum 30 to life, it will be at the discretion of the judge as to whether he does the minimum or max. And as for his connect.....the feds already have that information, it just hasn't been published.....contrary to popular belief......Mara Shaloup is not the know all end all of BMF and sorry to say only 50% accurate half of the time.
the supplier probably has some political friends in congress and were so worried that meech wouldgo trial and expose them. They will look out for him. i never knew it took 15 years to decide ne is a kingpin. meech helped those poor counties eat. Who is the next in line to help the u.s. keep friendship with our cocaine allies.
DALE you are just a dumb ass he didnt cooperate b*tch he accepted his responsibility. He's not built like you a fuck*n fag he's a soldier out here and he'll be a soldier in their so be it . I would rather die as a man than live like a coward. Real men stand up b*tches bend over!!! big brah they not asking any questions about his connect because THEY know its a dead issue. DEATH B4 DISHONOR!!! They don't make them like MEECH sorry BIG MEECH anymore!!!
Muhammed........what are you some groupie??! Get off of J-Bo/and Zah's dick!!!
Yeah I'm a fan!!! Take the bitter with the sweet!!! But you wouldn't know about that. What are you tho get off my dkk some type of fag...
Muhamme J. BO is a stand guy himself. Just heard Terry pleaded Guilty. Oh well, "they" think they got BMF, haha. Not even "half"!!!
Big Meech had a big operation going so its no surprise that the feds were watching and waiting to make make their move on him and BMF. It's crazy how many people snitched from the crew though. I read on Globalgrind.com that BMF members were snitching to get reduced sentences.
MEECH DID NOT DISHONOR BECAUSE HE DID NOT AGREE TO COOPERATE OR SNITCH HE TOOK THE FALL IN A CASE WHERE THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE AGAINST HIM. THIS IS JUST A REFLECTION OF THE HARSH DIRTY WORLD WE TRULY LIVE IN. EVERYBODY HAS SHIT THAT STINK SOME ARE JUST SCARED AND TRY TO HIDE IT.
Meech stayed down to his word,he didnt take no one down.He took his time like a real O.G. keep your head up Big Meech opcsym
I am now CERTAIN that Meech did not snitch. Coke dealers who don't snitch always get the Feds to drop the distribution of cocaine charges. Of course, you would have to behigh on coke to believe that is true. hahahaha No evidence? You are definately high.
Its people like Ced who try and judge Big Meech only God can judge him and God you are not you dont know what type of life or what circumstances this man faced as a child which by no means is an excuse dont get me wrong but it makes a difference what you need to do Ced is go back and research your own government which whom played a big part in the drug trade in our community as far as BET American Gangster I support it 100% it show kids what this type of life style bring some of them they cover have IQs unlike some college grads that guy Melvin from Baltimore Ma CED its people like you talk that shit from miles away but I bet a hundred bucks you would tell Big Meech to his face Fagot!!!!
I don't have ANY SYMPATHY. Those who are getting prosecuted in this are getting no less than what they deserve. You aren't stupid--you know what the hell you're doing when you are involved with the proliferation of drugs.
well i think the world has no clue about bmf. this movement has thousand of people. they come from every race and walks of life. the government fear big meech because he brought unity to all races. there are plenty white business men with riches involved. the world is bmf because they truly are everywhere. pro sports,lawer,doctors,local and federal law enforcement and of course the united states gov. the way people snitch these days, its just impossible to sell drugs for 15 years and the local and federal authority not no about come on people. remember rick ross from american gangster
we dont want your connect just some of the money and when you make another billion we want our cut. the real bmf are billionares trust me
Good point, big brah. When a ring of this scale has been in operation for this long, somebody knows about it. And all the people that you named? The pro-athletes, lawyers, doctors and law enforcement? They're no better. GET THEIR ASSES TOO. I'm just sick of people treating criminals who happen to be wealthy as though they are hometown heroes to aspire to. And since our wonderful entertainment industry doesn't always show kids the real results of getting involved in criminal activity, hopefully this will.
Yes, recording artists and record company brass... I'm talking to YOU.
Bottom line: you do wrong, you need to be held accountable. These aren't two-year-olds. THEY KNEW BETTER.
so u honestly think a person deserves all this time with no real evidence just snitches who would tell on their momma they only care about self man people like this have no honor their is honor among thieves therefore these guys new what they got themselves into so stand up 2 me its just unbelievable he didn\\\'t make them cowards do shit that\\\'s the life they chose but smtimes their Is another side and unfortunately that\\\'s it. But someone abuses a child sexually and man gets a few years it bewilders me. Maybe they should get sometime for the drugs but life or 15years it doesn\\\'t make any sense. What about their families I\\\'m sure there loved also but these judges think that they\\\'re god but God will judge them one remember this life is temporary so only God can judge them I truly believe God despise snitches.
You know before you can blame anybody about the drugs in this country, blame the government b/c they started all the problems with drugs being introduced to our communities. No drugs were ever brought into this country until our government flooded watts to try and get rid of the black panter party. What ever happened to the DEA when they brought all thise drugs into Miami 15 yrs ago. Why is it that we try and put blame on people that we know nothing about. Our government is the biggest crime family and they set all the rules and if you don't play by their rules, guess what they take you out. Think about it people drugs can't get into this country if our government didn't allow it. Drugs are big bussiness and as long as the government we all vote for stops what they caused " We the people " will always put the blame on the small apples that get caught. My oppinion if you only caught 60 people that the Feds have not even scratched the surface with BMF So, on that note I guess I would have to say the world does belong to BMF.
fuck all you hoes. not one of you bitches can say shit bad about the homie. it was and still is death before dishonor. That's why the brother got lynched. He did not cooperate with the crackers. (stupid asses) You bitches are no better than the jews that crucified jesus. Praise him while on top and ride with the lynch mob. Don't forget, it is a movement. Bigger than the homie, ill, and will continue. Until then, who's dick are you all going to ride? Cl, fuck you too! This was not an informative following, this is inadvertant dick sucking upon your behalf. You are more of a hoe, than the bitches that pick the money up off the floor after the homie use to make it rain. So, on thanksgiving day, give thanks for being the spineless ass bastards that you are. What kind of person gloats from the downfall of another? Bitches, that's who.
wow all i read here was a lot of negative to a man who fed thousands and their families. i mean thats what its all about rite, feeding your family. i mean if the feds gave me 2k bricks a month ild be hated on too. dont be mad at the man just because he blew your monthly gross on drinks every night of the week. only reason he went down is because he crossed over the become legit in the rap game and they wasnt gon be able to get more brick money off him.... see you again my dude.
bmf coming home sooner than you think. then what you going do
DAMN "K", YOU WANA C EVERYBODY LOCKED UP CUZO. WHAT ABOUT THE AVERAGE PEOPLE WHO ASSOCIATED THEMSELVES JUST SO THEY CAN PARTY FOR FREE, GET ALL THE WOMEN, THE FAME, AND SIMPLY JUST BE ABLE TO SAY I KNOW SO AND SO PERSONALLY. WHAT ABOUT YOU. YOU CAN'T TELL ME YOU HAVEN'T DONE WRONG, I'M SURE WHEN YOU DID YOU WANTED FORGIVENESS, SO WE HAVE TO SHOW THE SAME RESPECT FOR MEECHIE AND THE REST OF THE FAM.
Oh yes, he fed families and did a lot for his community. He's honorable to a fault. However, he did wrong. Pure, plain, and simple. He used dirty money to feed those people and help his neighborhood. Because he did something good with it, does that invalidate the actions he directed to obtain it? Only God can judge him? Please. What he did may not have been explicitly listed in the Bible as a cardinal sin, but he broke the laws of Man, which God has said is the same as committing a sin in His eyes. He didn't say "Obey the princes of the earth..." for nothing.

The comments are just as interesting as the reporting. Although this story should be a cautionary tale, it appears it will only inspire some to come up by any means necessary, by no fault of Mara Shalhoup\\\'s reporting ability. I believe her series and follow-ups have been well done. Many folks have been reduced to the level of mere survival by our unequal society. This is a dangerous lot of folks, and anyone who has a half a pea of respect for himself or herself would be wise to steer clear, knowledge or lack of knowledge of the game notwithstanding. You don\\\'t need to know the game to understand that the game has no love for you. It will break, destroy or kill indiscriminately.
I would like to thank Mara because without her we would have to speculate on the things that went on within the trial. Furthermore we know the cowards up close that snitched. People let me tell you something about the feds they\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'re liars I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'m sure that these guys were\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'nt under investigations for 15 years think the first snitches were what 26,27 years old so you\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'re telling me they\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ve been following 12 and 13 yr olds. No because its a bunch of bullshit!!! So if I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'m a judge I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'m gonna have a problem with you bringing Big Meech to trial and you\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ve been watching the guy for 15years and you have not one phone conversation on this guy. So people PLEASE wake up!!! So nothing on this guy since he himself was 24 so dont this sound strange to you, I smell something and like my momma use to say if it smells like shit its shit...
I knew both of them niggaz personally. Meech and T was getting that bread for a long time. The nigga Meech knew he was hot. T wanted out but it was too late. You see they was hot for 15 years. Niggas may trip because he accepted a plea but, that's the only way he would possibly see daylight again. 20 years for a C.C.E. is damn good! Niggas dont even understand that if he didnt accept the plea, he was really fucked! He didnt have to tell...they already knew! He went out with plenty money and stories to tell. It's niggas doing life for 1 chicken. Now i'mma tell you who the dummy is...Bleu Davinci!!! Why would you steady put it in they face? Jeezy may be telling, Puffy may be tellin...why yall aint tripping on them niggas? Them niggas are gonna be in prison, still living like bosses...100
