Tory Lanez found out the hard way that his tweets could also land him in trouble with the law, and Twitter was here for the karma.
Tuesday (Apr.5), Tory Lanez and his atrocious fade were handcuffed and reprimanded into custody after Judge David V. Herriford of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County said he violated a protective order and personal contact order. Reporter Nancy Dillion shared details on Twitter, noting that Lanez’s bail was increased from $250,000 to $350,000, and he would be released after he posted bail.
Tory Lanez was handcuffed in court and remanded to custody until he posts new bail of $350,000 in Megan Thee Stallion felony assault case. Judge found him in violation of discovery protective order and personal contact order.

The judge listened to arguments about Lanez’s social media activity for about an hour before concluding that some of them “seem to be clear messages” sent to Megan Thee Stallion. Dillion later shared that Lanez did post bail and was waiting to be processed where his father was waiting for him outside. Interestingly enough, Lanez’s biggest fan, DJ Akademiks, was also mentioned during arguments with the Toronto rapper’s lawyer, arguing that his client didn’t “provide DJ Akademiks with any discovery in the case before Akademick tweeted that “Tory Lanez DNA was not found on the weapon in the Meg Thee Stallion case.”
Bail bondsman just left after posting the new $350,000 amount, an increase from $250,000. Lanez should be released soon. His father still waiting outside courtroom. This all happens in courthouse.

Dillion also shared a video of Tory Lanez and his terrible haircut leaving court, hopping in his Lamborghini truck, trying to give off the impression the turn of events didn’t faze him during his court appearance.

The bootleg “Hip-Hop journalist” responded to his name being brought in the case claiming that the information was provided to him by Roc Nation.

He also claims he is currently being “censored” on Instagram for “spreading too much truth and private info about the industry.”

I can’t stand Tory Lanez not even because he shot Meg, but because he then decided to start the nastiest ongoing smear campaign against her. And a result, Meg is relentlessly attacked by a buncha other troll sized miscreants who only support him because he harmed a Black woman

There’s this video on IG of Tory Lanez getting in a car after posting his bail. A reporter asked him how he’s feeling he said he was feeling great. Anyways he has a full head of hair in this video. Why someone in the comments said “He always finding hair when he got court”??!
