Rapper Tory Lanez Stabbed 14 Times in California Prison, Stable Condition

Rapper Tory Lanez, serving a 10-year sentence related to the 2020 shooting of Megan Thee Stallion, was stabbed 14 times by inmate Santino Casio at the California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi. Video footage obtained by The Shade Room shows Casio launching a violent attack near a stairwell, with Lanez struggling to escape while screaming for help. Despite severe injuries, including collapsed lungs, Lanez was reported to be in stable condition and breathing independently after treatment. Casio, who is serving a life sentence for second-degree murder, claimed self-defense, alleging Lanez had put a price on his head and appeared armed. The attack has drawn significant attention, with Lanez's legal team continuing efforts to overturn his conviction amid ongoing investigations into the stabbing. The incident highlights ongoing tensions within the prison, which houses approximately 1,700 medium- and maximum-security inmates.
