In a bid to help Tory Lanez avoid jail time, more than forty-five thousand fans have signed a petition to appeal last week’s guilty verdict in the rapper’s Meg Thee Stallion shooting case.
The Change.org petition, which surfaced shortly after Lanez was convicted on Friday of shooting Meg, called out the jury as well as the music industry as a whole, while specifically naming the likes of Jay-Z and RocNation as a part of a potential conspiracy against the Canadian rapper.
The creator of the petition even suggested that Tory Lanez was a sacrificial lamb that was offered up to do a solid for Black women.
She wrote, “The trial was a circus of speculation, insufficient evidence, inconsistencies, and drunken memories that left us without much moral certainty of any truth.”
She added, “This case is also about branding, marketing, label heads and a music industry that pushes narratives based on who they have personally invested millions into. Could Jay-Z or RocNation be involved??”
Yasin Toure’, who created the petition continued, “Was this case taken because of a political pressure to fake protect black women? African-Americans went along with hashtags that didn’t protect anyone & instead caused division between black women and black men.”
