Ex-Cop Sues Meek Mill I'm Firing Blanks in the Bedroom ... Because of You

Published | Updated

Meek Mill ruined the career -- and maybe the sex life -- of a former Philly cop who now wants the rapper to pay dearly.

As TMZ first reported, Mill was arrested in 2012 for allegedly having weed on him, but when cops came up with zilch he sued the city of Philadelphia. Meek lost the case, but one of the involved officers claims he lost a lot too.

In a new lawsuit, the cop says Meek defamed him in interviews ... damaging his reputation and character. He was fired for allegations unrelated to Meek's case -- but claims it's been hard to find work because of Meek slamming him in the media.

Worst of all, the officer hints he's uhh -- misfiring in the bedroom. He claims the case "had a strong affect on my life and relationship performance with my fiancée."

The cop claims he has not worked in a year and is suing for $750,000 in damages.

Marquis Lewis -- a famous street artist who goes by the name Retna -- was dating Brittny. He had checked into the London Hotel in West Hollywood a week ago Monday to recuperate from major knee surgery -- surgery that had just been performed.

Retna's lawyer, Michael Goldstein, tells TMZ ... Brittny came to visit a week ago Tuesday night and they got into a major argument.

Goldstein says, "Retna was not the aggressor." That said, Goldstein tells TMZ his client harbors no ill will, calling Brittny "sweet." He says, "They're cool with each other."

Published | Updated

The trucker who caused the fatal car crash that left Tracy Morgan in critical condition says he was not high on drugs or drunk when he slammed into the SUV ... and believes he's being skewered because a celeb was hurt in the accident.

A twitter account which appears to be Walmart trucker Kevin Roper was very active early Tuesday morning ... with a remorseful Roper saying, "I wish it was me and I can't express how horrible I feel."

Roper also denies reports he hadn't slept for 24 hours, claiming the bad press is all about finding a scapegoat, as he says, "because a famous person was involved." He wrote, "I was never charged at the scene of the accident because once again i was not guilty of any crime. Not until all the TV cameras came."

Roper seems to say he was not negligent and therefore not responsible for the crash, suggesting he was not at fault.

Roper concluded his tweets, writing, "So yes i am now most likely f****d because i had an unfortunate ACCIDENT with the wrong car that night."
