Tory Lanez won't be offered a plea deal in the felony assault case where he allegedly shot Megan Thee Stallion last year. According to AceShowBiz, Lanez's case is set to go to trial on December 21st and prosecutors are refusing to allow him to try and negotiate with them in an effort to avoid jail time.
Lanez's defense lawyer Shawn Holley appeared in court yesterday (November 3rd) and said that her client and prosecutors have had “meaningful talks,” but added her client’s plea remains not guilty.
She explained, “As in every case, the lawyers for the parties discuss the possibility of resolving the case. This case is no different. That said, our position as to what did and did not happen in this matter remains unchanged.”
Lanez has been hit with two felony charges – assault with a semiautomatic firearm and carrying a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle – and is facing up to 22 years and eight months behind bars if convicted.
