Tory Lanez broke his silence in his first prison interview, insisting on his innocence and pointing to newly surfaced evidence from Megan Thee Stallion's civil case. The rapper, serving a 10-year sentence for the 2020 shooting, plans to appeal to the California Supreme Court. He claims the withheld medical records could prove a Brady violation.
Oh, the drama never ends in this Hollywood Hills saga! 🔥 Tory Lanez, real name Daystar Peterson, is serving his third year of a 10-year sentence at California's Men's Colony after his 2022 conviction for assaulting Megan Thee Stallion with a firearm back in July 2020. In a virtual chat with NBC News—his first broadcast interview from behind bars—Lanez didn't hold back: "There is a very big misconception about me. The public sees me as this monster. I’ve never been violent toward a woman. I would never hit a woman, let alone shoot a woman." He regrets not testifying, believing it would've flipped the jury: "If I would have testified, I think the verdict would have been very different." And the tea? He calls the new evidence "overwhelming," stemming from Megan's recent win in her defamation suit against blogger Milagro Gramz. Gramz's attorney, Ronda Dixon, spotted a Cedars-Sinai pathology report dated July 14, 2020, about a "foreign body" in an evidence bag—matching Megan's DOB but never shared in Lanez's trial. His lawyer, Crystal Morgan, screams Brady violation, saying it could've let them challenge medical testimony or spin an alternative theory. Last month's appeals court denial? No sweat—they're heading to the California Supreme Court and begging Governor Gavin Newsom for clemency or a pardon. Lanez insists he's healing, taking accountability elsewhere, but wants fairness here. Prison life's been messy too: he got stabbed over a dozen times earlier this year. Social media's buzzing on The Shade Room, with fans joking about his "new evidence every week" 😂 and others urging closure for Meg, who's been glowing post-trial. Proving a Brady win is tough—experts say they must show it'd change the outcome. So, Roomies, will this reopen the wound or finally seal the chapter?
