Tory Gets 10-Year Sentence

On September 14, 2023, the appeal of singer Tory Lanez was denied, and he was officially sentenced to 10 years in prison on August 8, 2023, in connection with the July 2020 shooting incident involving Megan Thee Stallion.

The Canadian artist is now serving his sentence at the North Kern State Prison in Delano, California, where he is expected to spend three to six months before moving to a permanent facility for the remainder of his sentence.

Before his 10-year sentencing, the “Hurt Me” artist allegedly turned down a possible shorter sentencing before being sentenced to a decade in prison. Lanez allegedly rejected a 4-year plea deal and instead proceeded with the trial. 

Who Did It Then?

According to recent revelations, Tory Lanez’s bodyguard, Jaquan Smith, alleged that Megan’s ex-best friend, Kelsey Harris, was in possession of the gun during the shooting incident. Despite Lanez being found guilty of shooting Megan, Smith claimed to have witnessed Harris holding the weapon, leading to Lanez’s attempt to disarm her.

Following Smith’s claims, Megan responded and “firmly denied” Kelsey’s involvement in the shooting and continued to state that Lanez was the culprit in the shooting.
