A former Philadelphia police officer has sued Amazon, Roc Nation, Meek Mill and others, claiming she was defamed in a documentary that premiered last year about the rapper's high-profile clashes with the city's legal system.

Ex-police officer Sequeta Williams has filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, alleging she was defamed in an episode of "Free Meek," a documentary series that was made available on Amazon Prime last year. The suit, which seeks in excess of $75,000, lists Roc Nation, Jay-Z, Wenner Media and Robert Rihmeek Williams, also known as Meek Mill, as defendants.

According to the 33-page complaint, which Philadelphia attorney Steven Marino of Marino & Associates filed Tuesday, the problematic area in the documentary occurred when a photograph of Sequeta Williams appeared as Defender Association of Philadelphia attorney Bradley Bridge and a journalist from Rolling Stone spoke about a list of allegedly problematic police officers that the Philadelphia District Attorney's office maintains. That so-called "Do Not Call" list includes the names of officers that prosecutors do not use as witnesses because their testimony is believed to be unreliable.

READ THE COMPLAINT:

Although Williams is included on the DA's so-called "Do Not Call" list, the plaintiff argued that she is not on the list because of any history of dishonesty, but rather for criminal charges that arose after four people tried to mug her and her significant other while she was off duty.

"The communication presented in Season 1, Episode 4 of the documentary series 'Free Meek' entitled Filthadelphia falsely imputes a message to the minds of the average persons among whom it is intended to circulate that plaintiff Sequeta Williams was a dirty and dishonest police officer," Williams said in the complaint.

Williams in the complaint asserts she was not placed on the list because of unreliable testimony. Rather, she said, it stemmed from charges of simple assault and other offenses as a result of an off-duty incident where she allegedly pulled a firearm in an effort to deescalate a mugging attempt. She was acquitted on all charges in that case, according to the complaint.

Neither Bridge, who has been handling appeals involving allegedly corrupt police officers since 1995, nor Rolling Stone journalist Paul Solotaroff were named as defendants in the complaint, and, according to the documentary, they did not mention Williams' name, but had been only discussing the nature of the "Do Not Call" list when the graphic of Williams appeared.

Williams' suit is the latest in a long-running legal saga that has developed around Mill's case, and the documentary.

Mill's criminal case and closely watched spat with Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas Judge Genece Brinkley over the lengthy criminal sentence she imposed for probation violations caught national attention and stirred controversy in the local legal community. Then, even before the documentary aired, Brinkley's attorney, A. Charles Peruto, sued the movie makers, alleging they violated the Wiretap Act by using off-the-record comments he made. That suit was dismissed in June.

Marino did not return a message seeking comment. No attorneys had entered an appearance for the defendants as of Thursday morning. Roc Nation, Wenner Media and Amazon each did not return a message seeking comment.
