The saga of Tory Lanez and Megan Thee Stallion has been ongoing since July 2020 when the “Hot Girl” rapper was shot in both feet following a party in the Hollywood Hills. After weeks of silence, she eventually pointed the finger at Lanez and he was charged with felony assault.
While the COVID-19 pandemic has slowed down the legal process, there was finally some movement in the case earlier this week. But according to Lanez, the media has misconstrued some of the facts.
On Thursday morning (November 4), the Canadian rapper responded to a tweet from XXL that claimed he was “unable” to reach a plea deal in the case, but Lanez says he’s the one who decided not to agree to whatever the prosecutors put on the table.
“The wording of this is amazingly inaccurate,” he wrote. “I wasn’t ‘UNABLE’ to do anything. They offered what they offered so I wouldn’t goto TRIAL and I DECLINED. It’s very simple … and no I will not be giving any live testimony please report real news and accurate facts . ciao.”
On Wednesday (November 3), a Los Angeles judge scheduled the preliminary hearing for December 14. According to The Shade Room, prosecutor Kathy Ta told the judge she estimates the preliminary hearing will take roughly 90 minutes, but it’s unclear if Megan Thee Stallion will attend.
Meanwhile, Lanez has been ordered to appear in person for this hearing, which will likely involve witness testimony from those connected to the incident. Megan Thee Stallion has had a protective order in place for months, but Lanez violated the order in July when he showed up at Rolling Loud Miami moments after Megan left the stage.
Prosecutors Want Tory Lanez Back In Jail For Violating Megan Thee Stallion Protection Order
Consequently, his bail amount was increased from $190,000 to $250,000. The judge also forbade Lanez from attending any events where Megan might be and said if it happened again, he’d be back in jail.
Lanez has maintained his innocence over the last 16 months. In November 2020, he pleaded not guilty to a pair of felony assault charges including assault with a semi-automatic firearm and carrying a loaded, unregistered firearm in his vehicle.
In a follow-up tweet, the 29-year-old said he’s on a better path now and just wants to be left alone.
“Truly been staying out the way and becoming more of a positive person to myself and others,” he wrote. “allow me to continue. That’s all I ask.”
Do y’all think he really shot her? Lol I know its not funny but wtf lmao.
There’s no way honestly. No one in the social media age would miss the opportunity to post that shit online.
If it happened like they said it would Tory would be in jail. Megan gone milk this when she needs some attention or a reason to tell people to buy her album. Lets end this already.
Durk’s been out on bail for attempted murder for over two years, YNW Bortlen got bail for first degree murder, not saying he did or didn’t do it but making bail after shooting at someone’s feet is easy if you have long money
Lying about being shot in BOTH FEET is also easy when you have long money record label behind you.first it was glass then shot in both feet now it’s one foot.
Meg prob doesn’t even know that her label gotta do this kind of stuff to keep her afloat lol
tory is a cornball, but I think he’s telling the truth in this ordeal, since he dont wanna agree to any settlement and prefers going to trial
Fuck off, Lanez.
If the man is really innocent (not saying he is or is not), it’s going to put Twitter in shambles.
So let me get this straight this woman was shot by a semi automatic weapon in BOTH FEET close range and neither bullet hit nothing in either foot when your feet is basically bones and tendons?on top of that she gets back in the car with the man she says shot her?magically she was able to walk afterwards needed no cast , no rehab etc dancing a few days later.btw the police and paramedics on the scene didn’t know she was shot?also noone in the car said she was shot.sounds FISHY.
