    Tory’s new attorney promises to give rapper “best result possible”

    Tory Lanez has hired new lawyers to tackle his appeal after he was found guilty in the Megan Thee Stallion shooting case. One of the new attorneys Jose Baez recently ran into TMZ where he spoke about the case and vowed to dedicate all his resources in giving the Canadian artist the best representation possible.

    “Looking at this case, I certainly wish I had come in sooner as opposed to later,” Baez said. “Unfortunately, this is the way that it is, but he’s got me now and I’m certainly willing to give him everything I have and hopefully, we’ll get the best result possible for him.

    “As you may know, Tory has never been convicted of a crime and he has never had to deal with the circumstances that he’s dealing with, so the adjustment that he’s going through is new to him. To his credit, he’s listening to his lawyers, he’s an incredibly articulate young man.”

    He continued, “In all of that, there are things that certainly in the trial he wished had gone the other way … He’s trying his best to adjust to everything. In light of the fact that he’s never been in this situation before, it’s really a tough process to go through.”

    Tory Lanez no longer puts on an electric ankle monitor after a judge ends his house arrest in his felony assault case that involves accusations that he shot and injured Megan Thee Stallion in 2020. During a hearing on Monday (December 5), Los Angeles Superior Court Judge David Harriford explained that he granted Lanez his freedom so that he can prepare for the trial which has begun, Rolling Stone reports. He added that the Canadian rapper’s $350K bond still stands.

    “I will terminate the house arrest at this point. The main reason is that during trial, it’s difficult to have a client who’s not accessible. I’m doing this mainly for the trial preparation aspect,” Judge Harriford said.

    Deputy District Attorney Kathy Ta objected to the ruling claiming that the rapper previously attempted to “sway” and “intimidate” witnesses, adding that his freedom might raise their “fear” for being “in reach of him.”

    Tory Lanez’s attorney George G. Mgdesyan defended him stating: “If he’s required to have a monitor on his ankle in front of jurors, I think it’s just punitive. It doesn’t serve any purpose. If he’s going to dissuade a witness, all probation is going to know is where he is. It doesn’t mean he can’t meet with that person.”

    Tory Lanez to wear electronic monitor as from Friday to the next trial date

    More trouble comes for Tory Lanez on Wednesday (October 26) as a judge orders the rapper-singer to be placed on house arrest. Per CBS News, Lanez will wear an electronic monitor starting this Friday until his next trial in the Megan Thee Stallion shooting case, tentatively set for November 28.

    Prosecutors claimed that Lanez punched a man (August Alsina) in Chicago September 17. They added that the artist has “shown such a flagrant disregard for the court’s orders,” bringing up the time when he defied an order not to get 100 yards within Meg.

    Although Deputy D.A Alexander Bott wanted Lanez to be held in custody without bail, Supreme Court Judge David Herriford ordered him to be placed on house arrest.

    The Canadian artist’s attorney Shawn Holley told the judge that the prosecutors’ claims are “mere allegations” that “are disputed.”

    “I’m not really sure that there’s anything this court should do given the unproven allegations,” the lawyer told the judge.
