Tory Lanez is stirring up the legal waters with some serious accusations against his former lawyer, Shawn Holley. He’s taking his case to the State Bar of California, claiming that Holley had divided loyalties due to alleged ties with Roc Nation, just as he was entangled in the Megan Thee Stallion shooting debacle.
Lanez, currently serving time for the 2020 incident involving Megan Thee Stallion, is pointing fingers at Holley, suggesting she wasn’t fully on his side. He argues that Holley’s connection to the Hulu show “Reasonable Doubt,” where she serves as a producer, is part of the evidence of a conflict. He claims that the show, inspired by Holley’s life, also features music connected to Roc Nation, further hinting at her divided loyalties.
In his complaint, Lanez insists that Roc Nation’s CEO, Desiree Perez, played a role in helping Megan when she made her police statement about the shooting. He also accuses Holley of failing him as his lawyer—asserting she discouraged a DNA expert from examining the weapon, despite his claim of not being the shooter.
He feels that Holley’s actions were influenced by Roc Nation’s agenda, especially since he states he was pushed towards accepting a plea deal. After he stood firm, Lanez alleges that Holley strategically withdrew from his defense, citing false allegations of bribery as her exit strategy. He is demanding repercussions for Holley and wants a return of the hefty fees he paid her.
On the other side, Holley firmly rejects Lanez’s allegations, responding to TMZ that these accusations were dismissed by the State Bar previously. She suggests that Lanez’s actions might be linked to the appeal of his conviction. Holley insists she has no business connections to Roc Nation and denies any influence from the company on the TV show.
Lanez’s new legal team, Unite the People, backs his claims, stating no prior complaint was officially lodged against Holley with the Bar. The back-and-forth continues to unravel on social media, capturing the attention of the public and bringing more layers to the ongoing drama.
The accusations raised by Tory Lanez against his former attorney add another twist to his already tumultuous legal journey. While Holley disputes the claims, the controversy highlights the complex dynamics in the entertainment industry where legal and business interests often collide.
