Tory Lanez is facing a maximum potential sentence of 22 years and eight months in state prison.
Megan Thee Stallion testified that Lanez offered her $1 million not to say anything and that he said he couldn't go to jail because he was already on probation -- the latter of which Mgdesyan told jurors was simply not the case.
"At this time, we were at the height of police brutality with George Floyd," she said, adding that she didn't want to see anybody die and that it was "not really acceptable" in the Black community to cooperate with police. Deputy District Attorney Kathy Ta told jurors in her final argument that Lanez shot Megan Thee Stallion after she "disrespected" his musical career.
Mgdesyan told jurors that it was a "case about jealousy," saying the two women had gotten into an argument after finding out that Lanez had slept with both of them. He also said a neighbor reported witnessing a fistfight between the women after the vehicle they were in stopped on Nichols Canyon Road. Jurors heard testimony from that neighbor, and heard it a second time when it was read back by the court reporter during their deliberations.
"The defendant had a bruised ego because Megan was more successful than him," Ta said. "She's just disrespecting his rapping ... He had a massive ego and could not handle being disrespected ... The defendant shot Megan."
