Following his conviction for shooting Megan Thee Stallion and his supporters' petition, social media is mocking Tory Lanez.

The Canadian hip-hop musician, whose actual name is Daystar Peterson, was found guilty on December 23 of assault with a firearm, possession of a loaded, unregistered firearm in a motor vehicle, and gross carelessness involving a firearm.

He will stay in detention until his sentencing on January 27 even though he might spend more than 20 years in jail, per BBC.

Megan Thee Stallion v. Tory Lanez

Megan Pete testified during the trial that she was shot and injured on July 12, 2020, at the party in the Hollywood Hills. She said Tory grew enraged as a result of her criticism of his musical ability.

Megan said that before he fired five rounds at her, she had reportedly begged to be allowed out of a luxury vehicle.

He claimed to be on probation for a firearms charge, and the "Cognac Queen" testified that he made her an offer of $1 million to keep quiet about the attack. She originally claimed to have cut her foot on the glass while speaking to authorities. Rapper "Lady of Namek" refuted the accusations, nevertheless.

Tory Lanez's Dad Reacts Violently

After the guilty verdict, Tory Lanez's father didn't react well to the news.

Sonstar Peterson reportedly rose up and began yelling after the decision was read, according to KTLA News.

"You two are evil, wicked people, you know exactly what you did," he pointed at the prosecutors.

Later, he was forcefully escorted from the courtroom, but he continued to yell outside.

Sonstar yelled, "You know wanna know exactly how I'm feeling? I just stood here in the Los Angeles County and witnessed the worse miscarriage of justice that this world has ever seen."

He also called out Desiree Perez, Alex Spiro, Roc Nation, and Jay-Z wicked.

"You wicked witch. You snitch."

Alex Spiro is a lawyer, Desiree Perez is Roc Nation's CEO, and Roc Nation oversees Megan Thee Stallion's professional life.

Sonstar further conjectured that Tory Lanez's claimed hostility from Roc Nation is a result of his refusal to sign a contract with the record company. Nobody has provided proof to support the assertion as of publication time.

Tory Lanez Is Mocked Online

However, the Roc Nation conspiracy theory was rejected by a large portion of social media users.

Twitter users made fun of the notion that Jay-firm, Z's Roc Nation, somehow influenced the judge and the jury to convict Tory.

"This cold is still pounding my a**," one user said. "I hold Roc Nation responsible for the population's compromised immune system."

"I heard Roc Nation was causing global warming, another user tweeted. likewise the pandemic."

A third individual made fun of the fact that "half the Roc Nation employees can't even get into the Roc Nation brunch but sure they have power over Los Angeles Superior Court."

"Who in the name of God do you believe Tory Lanez is?" questioned a fourth individual.

"Until he shot a black lady, that n****a was a C-lister you guys had never ever f***ed with. There has been no injustice in this case.

The mockery comes after his fans created an "Appeal Tory Lanez Verdict Immediately" petition on Change.org, and it has already surpassed its target of 35,000 signatures.
