Drake shares petition which is nearly 200k signatures calling for Tory Lanez’s release following prison stabbing

Drizzy shared a Change.org petition urging California Governor Gavin Newsom to pardon the fellow Toronto MC.

In the petition it stated, both of his lungs collapsed and he was placed on a breathing apparatus. "Despite being in pain, he is talking normally, in good spirits, and deeply thankful to God that he is pulling through," reads the message. "He also wants to thank everyone for their continued prayers and support."

According to reports, Tory Lanez' alleged attacker was Santino Casio, who is reportedly serving a life sentence for a murder charge. Casio was previously handed a six-year sentence for assaulting another inmate with a deadly weapon, along with a two-year sentence for possessing or manufacturing a weapon while incarcerated. A motive for Lanez' stabbing hasn't been revealed yet.

In the wake of Lanez' stabbing, a non-profit organization called Unite the People claimed that a testimony from a bodyguard proved that he's innocent in the 2020 shooting of Megan Thee Stallion for which he's currently incarcerated for. The group's "lead consultant," Walter Roberts claimed a man named Bradley James, who claimed to have been Megan's friend Kelsey Harris' bodyguard at the time, approached him and claimed to be a "witness" to Harris admitting to firing the weapon.

On his Instagram Story Friday (May 16), Drake wrote “@torylanez come home soon” while sharing a Change.org petition urging California Governor Gavin Newsom to pardon the fellow Toronto MC, who’s currently serving a 10-year prison sentence after being convicted on three felony counts tied to his shooting of Megan Thee Stallion during a heated dispute after a Hollywood Hills pool party in July 2020.

Drake posted "@torylanez come home soon" on his Instagram Story on Friday along with a link to a petition named "Pardon Tory Lanez: Urge Governor Newsom to Correct a Deep Injustice." It's now at 198,200 of this writing. It was originally posted on Lanez' social media accounts.
