Rapper Tory Lanez is reportedly on the road to recovery in a new prison facility after he was allegedly stabbed 14 times on the morning of May 12.
The 32-year-old “Sorry 4 What” artist has been transferred to California Men’s Colony, roughly three hours away from the California Correctional Institution. He’s been serving a 10-year sentence for a shooting incident involving fellow rapper Megan Thee Stallion.
A rep for Lanez confirmed he was moved to “ensure his safety” after the brutal prison yard attack, which resulted in both of his lungs collapsing.
Attorney Crystal Morgan said her client “is doing fine, considering the severity of his injuries.”
However, he’s supposedly unhappy with the prison swap, since he had “been building a personal community” at California Correctional Institution.
Lanez has maintained his innocence despite a jury believing Megan Thee Stallion’s retelling of the events that followed a party at Kylie Jenner’s Hollywood Hills home in December 2022.
He was accused of having fired five shots at the three-time Grammy winner, who sustained gunshot wounds to her feet. He was sentenced in August 2023.
