Tory Lanez has been found guilty of violating the protective order relating to his case with Megan Thee Stallion. The Canadian rapper was handcuffed and remanded to police custody in a Los Angeles court on Tuesday. His bail has been set at $350,000.
According to Rolling Stone Senior Reporter, Nancy Dillon, Judge David Herriford listened to nearly an hour of back and forth about Lanez's posts on social media and decided that some "seem to be clear messages" to Megan.
On the condition of his release, Lanez must agree "not to mention the complaining witness in this case in any social media."
On the whole, Lanez is facing charges of felony assault and carrying an unregistered firearm relating to the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion in the summer of 2020. Lanez was officially charged with one count of assault in October of that year.
After the shooting, Megan shared texts from Lanez, which she claims implicate him.
On the flip side, Lanez has consistently downplayed the shooting over the last two years.
If convicted, Lanez stands to face a maximum sentence of 22 years and eight months in prison.
A trial date has been set for September 14.
