Megan Thee Stallion Wins Ruling To Question Tory Lanez Under Oath

Popular rapper, Megan Thee Stallion has been granted permission to question Tory Lanez under oath.

This will be happening for the first time after he allegedly assaulted her with a semi-automatic firearm on a residential street in Los Angeles nearly five years ago.

A federal judge signed off on the order after the Grammy-winning rapper filed an unopposed motion seeking to conduct the remote deposition of Lanez while he’s locked up in a California prison.

Lanez is serving a 10-year sentence for shooting Pete in both feet during an alcohol-fueled curbside confrontation in the summer of 2020.

As the plaintiff in the lawsuit, Pete would have a right to attend Tory’s examination, which likely will be conducted by video, and the ruling did not mention any protective orders for the deposition or limitations on scope.

WOW.
