As Media Take Out reported yesterday, Tory Lanez was found GUILTY of shooting his ex-girlfriend Meg Thee Stallion in the foot. He was taken into custody after trial, and will be sentenced in a few weeks to a possible 22 year sentence.
While Tory’s legal team is sitting back and preparing to appeal the decision,Tory’s father is going NUTS after hearing the verdict. Tory’s dad, who is named Nightstar (Tory’s real name is Daystar) is an ordained minister.
In a video, which was circulating online, Tory’s father is blaming Roc Nation and Jay Z specifically for the jury’s verdict. He didn’t explain how Jay Z managed to convince 12 independent jurors to vote “guilty” however.
