Tory Lanez found guilty of shooting Megan Thee Stallion Enlarge this image toggle caption Photo by Roy Rochlin/Getty Images for BMI Photo by Roy Rochlin/Getty Images for BMI The singer and rapper Tory Lanez has been found guilty of assaulting the rapper Megan Thee Stallion. The prosecution offered Harris use immunity — meaning information directly or indirectly derived from the testimony or other information can't be used against the witness in any criminal case — but even with the offer, she still hesitated to answer many questions, at times not even admitting that she knew Pete had been shot. Playback of Harris's recorded testimony shifted suspicion of coercion back to the defendant, as Harris told prosecutors Peterson offered both women $1 million each to keep quiet about the incident. As the prosecution called DNA and gunshot residue experts, much of the direct evidence of the case didn't help prove what happened that night: Both Kelsey Harris and Tory Lanez had GSR on their hands.
