Tory Lanez (Daystar Peterson) was sentenced to 10 years in prison for the 2020 shooting of Megan Thee Stallion, so officially his sentence is ten years.

Quick Scoop: How long is Tory in jail?

  • He received a 10-year state prison sentence on August 8, 2023 in California.
  • The sentence comes from multiple felony convictions related to the shooting incident in July 2020 (assault with a semiautomatic firearm and related gun charges).
  • He had already served some time in custody before sentencing, which counts as credit toward the 10 years.
  • Some outlets and forum discussions speculate he could be released earlier with credits, parole, or successful appeals, with dates like 2029 sometimes mentioned as a possible earlier release, but those are estimates, not guarantees.
  • His legal team has pursued appeals, so the exact amount of time he ultimately serves could change if any appeal or legal motion succeeds.

In simple terms: the court gave Tory Lanez 10 years, but with time served, good-behavior credits, parole rules, and ongoing appeals, he might not end up serving every single day of that decade.
