<\/p>\n
Tory Lanez<\/strong> will remain behind bars after being found guilty of shooting Megan Thee Stallion<\/strong> … his request to be released on bond pending his appeal was just denied.<\/p>\n For those unaware, Tory was asking a judge in Los Angeles to let him live with his son and wife instead of staying behind bars while his appeal plays out.<\/p>\n Tory had a hearing Thursday about his request, but a judge said no dice — noting Tory’s convicted of a violent felony, has a history of violating court orders, and isn’t a U.S. citizen as reasons for the thumbs down.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tory’s defense argued the last point, saying the Canadian rapper is in America legally on an active work visa and has no reason to go back to Canada … but that didn’t seem to sway the judge.<\/p>\n As we reported, Tory was given his sentence<\/strong> last month — being handed a decade behind bars after facing over 22 years.<\/p>\n He was found guilty<\/strong> of 3 charges last year … negligent discharge of a firearm, assault with a semiautomatic firearm, and carrying a loaded and unregistered firearm.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tory spoke out<\/strong> after his sentencing … continuing to claim he’s innocent, saying he was “wrongfully convicted.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The infamous 2020 clip, obtained by TMZ, showed Megan limping<\/strong> near their vehicle with a trail of blood behind her.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tory’s lawyer, Jose Baez<\/strong>, called out the “incredibly harsh” sentence as it came in last month … also expressing disapproval for the prosecuting team for making an example out of his client.<\/p>\n
