Tory Lanez' baby mum 'visibly shaken' after his 10-year sentencing

After Tory Lanez was sentenced to 10-years in prison for shooting Megan Thee Stallion, the mother of his six-year-old child, Raina Cassagne, was said to be "visibly shaken and distraught" as she left the courtroom. Tory and Raina welcomed their son, Kailon Peterson in April 2017.

In December of 2022, Tory was found guilty of three felonies regarding the shooting. On 12 July 2020, after leaving a pool party at Kylie Jenner's Hollywood Hills home, Tory – Daystar Shemuel Shua Peterson – and Megan were heading to their rental home in a black SUV driven by Tory's security guard.

An argument broke out causing the security guard to pull over. Megan exited the car and, according to the prosecution, Tory pulled out a handgun and shot at her feet. She was left wounded and with bullet fragments in her feet. It wasn't until a month later when Megan took to Instagram Live to publicly call out Tory for shooting her.

Tory, 31, has maintained his innocence, saying that Kelsey Harris, who was also in the car with them, was the one who shot her. He claims that Megan's management team has been trying to frame him.

After a day of deliberating, the jury convicted Tory of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, having a loaded and unregistered firearm in a vehicle, and discharging the firearm with gross negligence. The Canadian rapper has appealed and maintained his innocence, with his lawyers saying that his alcoholism was the blame for his actions.

Prosecutors called for Tory to be sentenced to 13 years in prison, while Tory's legal team is asking for probation and a drug treatment program to help him with his alcohol abuse. But in the end, Tory received 10 years in prison.

An eyewitness at the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center in LA revealed to Entertainment Tonight that Raina "exited the courtroom in tears while flanked by family members," adding that she appeared to be "visibly shaken after the sentencing was announced."

After the verdict came in, the LA District Attorney said the high-profile nature of the case helped bring attention to the issue of violence against women. Prosecutor George Gascón said: "The fact that she is a successful entertainer has brought an important spotlight on the issue of violence against women."
