Tory Lanez’s lawyer said in court that he is not tall enough to shoot Megan Thee Stallion.
Lanez stands at just 5-foot-2, and his defense attorney, George Mgdesyan, claimed he is too short to have shot Megan from out of a window of a Cadillac Escalade during the alleged July 2020 incident.
“There was a light moment for Tory Lanez today during his lawyer’s closing,” reporter Meghann Cuniff tweeted. “Mgdesyan referenced his height, saying he’s ‘what, 5-foot-2’ and ‘I don’t even know if he can get over the door to shoot.'”
Earlier this week, Lanez declined to testify in his shooting trial.
“Tory Lanez will not take the stand. Both sides have rested and the jury was given instructions this morning,” and LA Times reporter tweeted from the courtroom. “Closing arguments will begin this afternoon at 130pm.”
He added: “Jaquan Smith, Tory’s driver, was present and on defense witness list but prosecutors asked for a continuance past the Christmas break if he was to testify, per defense attorney George Mgdesyan. At his clients request not to delay proceedings, Mgdesyan declined to call him.”
