Tory Laznez, legal name Daystar Peterson, was accused of shooting Megan Thee Stallion on both feet has been fulfilling a 10 -year sentence since July 2020, however, even during this time he has not stopped trying to revoke his conviction using multiple Avenas. Now an update has arrived following its efforts.
According Rolling stoneThe news occurred just on Tuesday, when a Court of Appeals in California denied the submission of the plaintiff of Habeas Corpus filed in 2023 and 2024.
The petition aimed to deny the jury’s decision on his verdict and request him to invalidate it based on claims that did not appear at the trial.
For those not versed, Habeas Corpus plaintiff is a legal procedure available for all prisoners, so they can challenge the charges against them. They force the government even more to get the prisoner to public and again justify their decision to imprison them.
The reason for the rejection is because the Court of the Second District of California believes that Lanez’s appeal does not meet the necessary requirements for the relief of habeas.
What is pertinent to mention is that its main focus has been that the firearm used in the Megan Thee shooting “has been out of place and is currently missing”, but the panel of three judges denies the accusation.
The jury testimony of a LAPD officer was cited to confirm the existence of the firearm, its magazine, as well as all bullets, fragments, etc., etc. They remain in police custody.
This is why Lanez “did not request more DNA evidence in the court of first instance.” In the eyes of the legal system, he also did not explain how any additional evidence could exonerate it. In addition, if I was talking about “the bullet fragments that surgeons eliminated from the victim’s feet”, then “they are unlikely to have usable fingerprints or DNA.”
During the trial the same case was filed, and if the court believed that Lanez could not be considered or excluded as a taxpayer less than the DNA found in the firearm because the magazine’s test was not conclusive.
At this time, the rapper’s legal team is preparing to go to trial on Monday, claiming that the previous path was not fair. Another aspect is that Lanez affirms that his lawyer offered him an “ineffective advice” by not “objecting properly” for some moments of Megan’s testimony against him.
He also said there was “misconduct” among prosecutors during Megan’s testimony.
