Tory Lanez allegedly feared for his life as he adjusted to prison life after being sentenced to 10 years for shooting Megan Thee Stallion. A new report reveals that the rapper feels his celebrity status makes him a “direct target.” He was placed with other hardened criminals in the Administrative Isolation area and kept in solitary.
Lanez will eventually be transferred from North Kern to a federal facility to serve his sentence. His convictions include assault with a firearm, discharging with gross negligence, and carrying an unregistered firearm.

Tory Lanez reportedly fears for his safety and life as he begins a 10-year prison sentence for shooting fellow rapper Megan Thee Stallion. A source spoke Page Six about what the rapper, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, has been up to since arriving at North Kern State Prison in California.
They said, “Tory fears for his life and safety in prison. He felt like an immediate and direct target because of his celebrity status.”
Another report revealed that Lanez was kept in Administrative Isolation and “escorted to a bathroom where he showered himself.” The “Hurts Me” rapper is also kept in solitary if he goes to the yard and brings all the food to his cell.

The Page Six sources spoke more about how Lanez could be in danger in prison. They said, “He stands at 5-foot-3, so his size is a setback. He’s placed with real hardened criminals and murderers. So, he’s hoping his lawyer will be able to continue to fight for his freedom while remaining innocent. It’s all chaos.”
According to the news outlet, some other inmates at the North Kern prison were very violent. An inmate who reportedly served several murder sentences was recently charged with first-degree murder for the death of his cellmate. Another inmate was recently convicted of assaulting two staff at the prison.
Lanez was sentenced to 10 years in August after being found guilty of shooting Megan in both legs after a July 2020 party.

He initially pleaded not guilty to all charges but was found guilty of all three. The convictions include assault with a semi-automatic firearm, carrying a loaded, unregistered handgun in a vehicle, and discharging a firearm with gross negligence.
Megan did not comment on Lanez’s conviction but gave a victim impact statement during his trial. It reads in part. “He not only shot me, he made a mockery of my trauma… He tried to position himself as a victim and tried to destroy my character and soul.”

Despite his conviction, Lanez maintains that he is innocent of all charges. He initially made an Instagram post taking responsibility for his actions and seemingly apologizing but later took it down. The “In For It” rapper later made another post clarifying that he never took responsibility for the allegations.
The post read, “I never let hard times scare me. I’m not going to let any jail time wipe me out. No matter how they try to twist my words, I have always maintained my innocence and I always will. In no way shape or form do I apologize for the charges I have been wrongly convicted of.”
Lanez promised his fans that he will never stop fighting for his freedom. He wrote, “I stand by my stance of refusing to apologize for something I didn’t do. I’ve faced adversity all my life, and every time it looked like I was going to lose, I came out on top. This was nothing but a moment where my back was against the wall, and I refused to stop fighting until I won. Hard times don’t last, but people do.”
