Tory Lanez, legal name Daystar Peterson, was accused of having shot the Megan Thee stallion in both feet has served a 10 -year sentence since July 2020, however, even during this period, he did not stop trying to overthrow his conviction using several avenues. Now an update has come after his efforts.
According to RollerThe news came on Tuesday, when a court of appeal to California rejected the brief of the Habeas Corpus applicant’s petition filed in 2023 and 2024.
The petition aimed to refuse the jury’s decision on its verdict and to request invalidate it on the basis of the complaints that it was not presented at the trial.
For those who have been reversed, the brief of Habeas Corpus of the applicant is a legal procedure available for all the prisoners by which they can contest the accusations against them. This also obliges the government to bring the prisoner out in public and to justify his decision to incarcerate them again.
The reason for the rejection is that the California second district court considers that the Appel deVenez does not meet the requirements necessary for repair in Habeas.
What is relevant to mention is that its main development point was that the firearm used in the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion had “been lost and is currently missing”, but the panel of three judges denies this allegation.
The testimony under the oath of a sworn lapd officer was cited to confirm the existence of the firearm, his magazine as well as all the balls, the fragments, etc. remain in police custody.
It is because of that, “did not ask for additional DNA tests before the Court of First Instance”. In the eyes of the legal system, he also did not explain how other tests could exempt it. In addition, if he spoke of “bullet fragments that the surgeons withdrew from the victim’s feet”, then “it is unlikely to have fingerprints or usable DNA”.
During the trial, the same case was presented and if the court thought that Lanez could neither be considered nor excluded as a minor contributor to DNA found on firearm because the magazine tests were not conclusive.
Currently, the rapper’s legal team is preparing for the trial on Monday, saying that the previous path was not fair. Another aspect is that Lanez claims that his lawyer gave him an “ineffective advice” by not “opposing properly” at certain times of testimony of Megan against him.
He also said that there had been a “fault” among the prosecutors during the testimony of Megan.
