Remember the “Hot Felon” Jeremy Meeks from way back in 2014? Of course you do, the then 30-year-old was arrested in Stockton, Calif. on gun charges and Meeks, his blue eyes and his mugshot went viral when the Stockton Police Department posted his mugshot on Facebook.
Well, after being sentenced to 27 months in jail last year Meeks is finally free and according to his agent he’s ready to get his modeling career started. Jim Jordan of White Cross Management spoke to Buzzfeed about Meeks’ release and potential new career, saying “We’re putting everything in place. We’re in talks with a lot of different agencies. There’s movies on the table. We have a lot of different things happening.”
Meeks is on Instagram, with a verified (!) account where he’s shared plenty of photos from his time in a medium security prison the past year, including visits from his kids:
And wife, who you may remember was not happy with all the attention Jeremy’s mugshot received.

As for his time in jail Meeks’ agent says “The other prisoners were real nice to him,” which I guess could be prison speak or could really mean they were just really nice to him.
