Megan Thee Stallion's lawyer refutes Tory Lanez's new evidence narrative in shooting case

Daystar Peterson, aka Tory Lanez, who was convicted of shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the feet in 2020, was sentenced to a decade-long prison sentence in 2023.

However, in a turn of events in May 2025, Lanez's legal team claimed that their client didn't shoot Megan and that it was her former best friend, Kelsey Harris, who allegedly did.

Lanez's fans were quick to spread the message, leading to a new narrative making the rounds on the internet. On May 19, 2025, Megan Thee Stallion broke her silence on the new case angle via TikTok, questioning when people would stop asking her to relive the traumatic event of "being shot by Tory."

“WHY IN TF WOULD ME … MEGAN THEE STALLION HAVE TO LIE ON THIS MF ABT SHOOTING ME! How yall mad at the person that got shot ???? FACTS ARE FACTS, he did it , it was PROVEN IN COURT f**k the hate campaign on the internet TORY YOU SHOT ME !!” the rapper wrote in her TikTok message

Additionally, Megan's legal team uploaded a 31-slide-long PPT describing the "overwhelming evidence of Mr. Peterson's guilt." Later, a new website titled 36 Hours Later was put up by Tory Lanez's legal team, posting allegedly suppressed evidence from the 36 hours following Megan getting shot.

As per Rolling Stone's May 22, 2025, report, Megan Thee Stallion's lawyer Alex Spiro refuted the new angle in Tory Lanez's case, stating:

"Despite Mr. Lanez being convicted at trial by overwhelming evidence (that included his own admission of his guilt), he and his team — flanked by any ignorant person they can find — have pushed whatever misleading narrative they can."

Despite Tory Lanez's legal team making an effort to get the 2020 shooting case reopened and get his conviction overturned, there hasn't been a legal action supporting their cause yet.
