After 2 weeks of trial which was only supposed to last 3-5 days, we finally got a verdict in the Tory Lanez case (real name Daystar Peterson) and the rapper was indeed found Guilty for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the feet in July 2020 after a gathering at Kylie Jenner’s house. The charges are as follows; Felony assault, discharging a firearm with Gross Negligence, and being in possession of a firearm.
After the Guilty verdict, shocking scenes ensued within the Court room, as Tory Lanez’s father reportedly jumped out of his first row seat calling it ‘a wicked system’ and saying this was ‘wicked injustice’. He was also screaming about Roc Nation, who are Megan Thee Stallion’s Management.
The six young sheriff’s deputies were overwhelmed trying to control Lanez’s father and stepmother and other supporters while keeping a hand on Lanez. According to reporters, one woman also said ‘Jay-Z is a bitch’ – which is an unfounded narrative swirling around social media, as Twitter also trends ‘Free Tory’.
Tory Lanez attorney said they will be filing an appeal, whist Megan Thee Stallion’s lawyer conquered that justice had been served. “The jury got it right. I am thankful there is justice for Meg.” Alex Spiro said.
LA District Attorney’s Office press release on Tory Lanez guilty verdict quoted “Women, especially Black women, are afraid to report crimes like assault and sexual violence because they are too often not believed.”
