🧵 Tory Lanez has filed a direct appeal, a habeas petition, and a successive habeas— all now consolidated by the California Court of Appeals. They have seated a panel. Oral arguments are coming. This case is far from over. Due process matters.

Tory Lanez’s conviction and sentencing raise major constitutional concerns:
– First Amendment (use of lyrics as evidence)
– Sixth Amendment (right to confrontation)
– Fourteenth Amendment (equal protection under racially biased enhancements)
These issues demand urgent review.
Justice isn’t served when due process is ignored, evidence is mishandled, and race plays a role in sentencing. Tory Lanez deserves a fair hearing—and if justice prevails, he deserves his freedom.
Free Tory Lanez.
@CAgovernor
Tory Lanez was sentenced to 10 years—despite having no prior record—largely due to a firearm enhancement law now under scrutiny for racial bias. Black defendants face a 92% higher rate of this enhancement. That’s not justice. That’s discrimination.
Tory Lanez’s defense was denied full access to DNA evidence. Entire samples were used up by the prosecution before defense testing. Reports weren’t shared until just before trial. That’s a violation of due process.
We have compelling evidence proving Tory Lanez’s innocence, and it will be released within the next 36 hours. Those who rushed to call for his incarceration, and worse yet pushed false evidence, should prepare to be held accountable.
