Prosecutors seek 13-year prison sentence for Tory Lanez in Megan Thee Stallion shooting case

The trial of Tory Lanez, the Canadian rapper accused of shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the summer of 2020, is nearing its conclusion. Today we find out the sentence sought by prosecutors for this incident which received a lot of media attention.

Prosecutors have called for thirteen years in prison for Tory Lanez, who initially faces more than twenty years in prison. In documents made public by the American press, prosecutors accuse the rapper of having harassed Megan Thee Stallion after shooting her at a party at Kylie Jenner’s house.

According to remarks transcribed by Generations, prosecutors say that Tory Lanez’s online posts for nearly three years have “re-traumatized” the victim and that his influence on social networks encouraged his followers to get involved in this case, thus contributing to “re-traumatize” the victim. Prosecutors believe the rapper is responsible for the consequences of his words and actions.

Prosecutors also condemn Tory Lanez’s attitude, saying he not only lacks remorse, but is also unable to accept any responsibility for his own actions. They call his lack of remorse insidious, pointing out that it does not guarantee that the defendant will not repeat this type of behavior in the future.

The verdict of the trial will be rendered on June 13, and if the Court does not follow the prosecutors’ requisitions, Tory Lanez risks up to twenty-two years in prison.
