A judge ordered Tory Lanez’s bail increased after determining that the rapper violated the restraining order Megan Thee Stallion had against him by performing at Rolling Loud Miami last month while still in the backstage.
A representative for the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Officer confirmed to XXL on Monday (August 23) that Tory will not face any prison consequences for violating the protection order that requires him to stay at least 100 Megan meters. Instead, his bail amount would have been increased from $ 190,000 to $ 250,000. He has to pay an additional $ 60,000 to avoid jail. However, the Toronto rapper-singer, who appeared in person in Los Angeles court today, is prohibited from attending events where Megan will be present. If he does not comply with this change in the restraining order, Tory will be remanded or taken into custody. His next court date is scheduled for September 2.
Last month, when Tory joined DaBaby on stage on July 25 at the South Florida Festival to perform their joint track “Skat,” Megan was still around, though sources close to Tory say he didn’t. has never seen the Houston rhymer or physically approach her.
Tory Lanez was ordered in October last year to keep a very healthy distance from former XXL 2019 freshman following the July 2020 shooting incident in the Hollywood Hills section of Los Angeles, which left Megan with gunshot wounds to the back of her feet.
The 29-year-old artist has been charged with assault with a semi-automatic firearm – personal use of a firearm – and carrying a loaded and unregistered firearm in a vehicle. He has also been ordered to hand over all the weapons he owns.
