Megan Thee Stallion has responded publicly after a series of viral tweets falsely claimed that charges against Tory Lanez in relation to the alleged shooting of Megan last July had been dropped.
In November, Lanez pleaded not guilty to an assault charge, lodged by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, in relation to the alleged shooting. As
Complex reported, a recent series of tweets claimed the charges against Tory Lanez had been dropped, pointing to a screenshot of a Los Angeles County-area court website.
The screenshot of the website said there was “no information found” in the criminal case summary of Daystar Peterson, the real name of Tory Lanez, that was filed October 8.

Despite what you may or may not have seen being circulated in a few viral tweets, the charges against Tory Lanez in connection with the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion have not been dropped.
The tweets in question put forth a screenshot of a Los Angeles County-area court website as proof that the charges, to which Lanez previously pleaded not guilty, had been dropped. Notably, even if any of these charges
had been dropped, it wouldn t have actually been Megan dropping them (as stated in multiple tweeted claims this week) due to the fact Lanez was charged by the Los Angeles County District Attorney s Office in the case.
