LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: A new report has claimed that Tory Lanez has been found guilty by a judge in connection to the July 2020 shooting incident in which Megan Thee Stallion was shot. Megan testified at the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center in Los Angeles against Lanez on December 13, 2022. She revealed that Lanez yelled, "Dance, bitch!" and shot her three times in the foot during the altercation incident.
