Canadian Rapper Tory Lanez was handed a 10-year prison sentence for shooting Megan Thee Stallion, a hip-hop musician.

After a two-day court that began on Monday, Lanez, also known as Daystar Peterson, was found guilty. Prosecutors claim Megan, 28, was the victim of multiple horrifying assaults.

On July 12, 2020, Megan was shot following a gathering at the Hollywood Hills residence of reality star Kylie Jenner.

In December, Lanez pleaded not-guilty to three felony charges, including assault with a semi-automatic weapon, transportation of a loaded, unregistered firearm, and careless discharge of a firearm.

Lanez expressed regret for his behavior in court and claimed full accountability for the 2020 shooting.
