A jury in Los Angeles found Tory Lanez guilty of three felonies in the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion on July 12, 2020, in the Hollywood Hills, which left her wounded with bullet fragments in her feet (that are still there). The jury of seven women and five men deliberated for one day before convicting Tory Lanez (real name Daystar Peterson), 30, of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, having a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle, and discharging a firearm with gross negligence.

Meg’s lawyer released a statement after the verdict was read. “The jury got it right. I am thankful there is justice for Meg.”
Tory’s legal team tried to say Kelsey was the shooter, but the jury saw right through that.
We’re SO glad Tory was found guilty on all three charges and hopefully he’s sentenced appropriately and deported back to Canada.
By the way….
While the jury was deliberating the case, Megan’s boyguard, Justin Edison, mysteriously "surrendered," according to his family. He was supposed to testify in the trial, but went “missing” before he was set to take the stand.
”He was found and a bench warrant was recalled," said attorney Michael Zweiback, adding that Justin "came forward today because of what was happening to his family."
Justin's father, Harold Edison, spoke with "Good Morning America" and said: "My hope is that [Justin] comes forward so that he doesn't assume the risks that we discussed before. I explained to him that this is not worth the risk ... we must maintain our integrity."
Interesting.
