Barnett filed an early release petition on behalf of Flenory last month, claiming that he could be released earlier than initially intended per new sentencing guidelines, especially since he is no longer a threat to society.

According to court documents obtained by HipHopDX, she filed the motion with the Eastern District of Michigan in early January, demanding a “retroactive application” of sentencing guidelines.

In summary, she argued that since the ex-BMF leader has been nothing short of a model citizen while serving time — getting his GED, doing well in his other prison classes and staying out of trouble on the inside since 2021 etc. — he’s earned credit for his sentence under the U.S.S.G. (United States Sentencing Guidelines) Amendment 782, and, therefore, should be released by 2025.

The founder of the Buried Alive Project, Barnett first received national attention in 2018, when she worked with Kim Kardashian to free Alice Johnson, who was sentenced to life in prison in 1997 for cocaine trafficking even though it was her first offense. She served 21 years in prison before being freed in June 2018.

Barnett initially petitioned for clemency for Johnson during the Obama administration. However, it wasn’t until the reality television star took note of the case and brought it to the attention of her then husband Kanye West that she was ultimately granted a pardon by the Trump administration.
