Wasn’t they washing the money with the entertainment stuff?
Wasn’t it Meech low key brother the one that got caught?
no ..that's the biggest myth associated with BMF and really any alledged drug smuggling organization
is that you can "wash your money" via rap music
Music was just a passion of Meech who actually started out as a deejay in Detroit before he got into the music scene..courtesy of an older friend of the Flenory's named T. Stuckney who was Proof's (RIP) first manager in Detroit and who actually convinced Meech that ATL would be the next wave during the late 90s....
BMF prior to the founding of BMF entertainment in 2001 was selling high end luxury cars via thier dealerships since 1995 and founded several nightclubs and had a number of residential properties (13 mansions according to the IRS) and according to the one Pacer transcript i seen which focused on the Wolf murder situation was also an armed security firm for the stars i.e (mayweather, jay-z, busta rhymes, TI)
A nationwide bust of a Detroit-based cocaine ring included an Orlando car dealer arrested Friday and accused of supplying drug couriers with Ferraris, BMWs and at least one Rolls Royce.
Marc Whaley supplied at least 62 vehicles since
1995 to members of the Black Mafia Family from his shops, 407 Exotic Cars, on Old Winter Garden Road and Lee Road, according to an indictment unsealed Friday.
and to this day continues to have a number of "legit" businesses that still flourish...BMF was one of the first black owned medicinal marijuana crop growers in the state of California...and that ain't cheap
