Former Saint Jailed For Non-Payment of Support

According to multiple media reports, former Saints receiver Robert Meachem has been jailed in Jefferson Parish for failing to pay child support and alimony.

Meachem was sentenced to 30 days in jail because he owes over $388,000 in support to his two children and his ex-wife.

A judge has ruled that Meachem can be released if he makes a minimum payment of $100,000.

The child support and alimony reportedly were established in a divorce decree in 2014 when Meachem was still playing for the Saints and making an $855,000 salary. 

Meachem has been out of the league two seasons but he has worked out for some teams.
