Last year, Tory Lanez was sentenced to ten years behind bars for allegedly shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot. He and his team have been trying to appeal the verdict ever since, though they’ve been unsuccessful so far. Now, however, he’s secured at least one small victory.
Reportedly, the performer recently filed a request for “relevant evidence,” or evidence that could be used in his favor. Days later, prosecutors filed paperwork to oppose his motion. Now, California’s court of appeals has decided that they’ll consider his request. Of course, this doesn’t necessarily mean that they’ll honor the request, but it’s a win for him nonetheless.

After all, since getting convicted, Lanez hasn’t had a lot of luck on the legal front. It looks like his personal life has taken a hit too, as his wife of less than a year Raina Chassagne filed for divorce last month. It’s unclear whether or not this has anything to do with Lanez’s legal woes, as she simply cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split. Some speculate that the two of them only got married so that he could dodge deportation, but this is just a theory.
Fortunately for Lanez, he does still have quite a few peers on his side despite his alleged crimes. Toosii, Wack 100, Drake, and more have shown him support in recent months. His prison stay hasn’t stopped him from dropping off new music either. Earlier this month, he unveiled two self-produced tracks he cooked up in 2016 alongside Play Picasso, “Girls Around The World” and “I’ve Been.” What do you think of Tory Lanez securing a small legal win in his alleged shooting case?
