He was handed a 27-month jail term in 2015 after being charged with illegally possessing firearms and ammo, carrying a loaded firearm in public and criminal street gang activity.
But two years behind bars did little to dim Meeks` mugshot fame.
He was quickly snapped up and signed with talent agency White Cross Management before he was even jailed as millions swooned over his good looks.
