Tory Lanez Denied New Trial


On Monday the legal team for Canadian rapper Tory Lanez argued his case for a new trial on the grounds of inadequate counsel and procedural misconduct, following his conviction for shooting Houston rapper Megan Thee Stallion [click here if you missed that]. 

The motion has been denied...

From Fox LA
A Los Angeles judge Tuesday rejected a bid for a new trial for jailed rapper Tory Lanez, who was convicted of shooting hip-hop star Megan Thee Stallion in the feet three years ago in the Hollywood Hills.
Lanez's current attorney, Jose Baez -- who famously won an acquittal for Casey Anthony -- argued Monday that procedural errors, prosecutorial misconduct, discovery violations and ineffective counsel led to his client's conviction in December on one felony count each of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, having a loaded unregistered firearm in a vehicle, and discharging a firearm with gross negligence.
But back in court on Tuesday, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge David Herriford denied the motion for a new trial.
"The court finds no error, prosecutorial misconduct or newly discovered evidence," Herriford said. "Motion denied."

Had he played nice instead of letting Carl Crawford and J Prince use him like a fool he'd be at home today, but he antagonized that girl and pulled too many stunts. This is where the cold hard reality sets in. It won't be easy, but life goes on. Sell your home and property and put money aside for child support.

i've met J Prince a few times back in the 80's and in the 2000's. Carl is related by marriage even though we've never met. What I heard is Carl isn't a nice guy.

It's sad that Rihanna drop Meghan as an ambassador because Tory was screaming innocent. As a battered woman she should've known better.

I'm confused as to how ASAP is still free making babies.

I said it before & I'll say it again. TL didn't do it, however with all that has been invested in Meg by her HANDLERS to make her the #1 rap chick in the game, they were gonna make sure he was found guilty.
