Tory Lanez Transferred To A Supermax Correctional Facility

Tory Lanez Transferred To A Supermax Correctional Facility In California

Tory Lanez has been relocated to California Correctional Institute, a super-maximum security facility in Tehachapi, California.

“Reports that Lanez was moved to general population at North Kern are false,” journalist Meghann Cuniff posted on X.

She added that California Correctional Institute operates as a supermax prison where the concept of “general population” varies from other facilities.

California Correctional Institute is in Tehachapi, about 85 miles southeast of Kern.

It’s designated as a supermax prison, so “general population” there is not quite the same as general population elsewhere. pic.twitter.com/CRpvtzqJMU

The tweet came after rumors surfaced that Lanez had been moved to general population at the North Kern State Prison.

Cuniff shared a screenshot from a representative at the California Correctional Institute.

“By law, CDCR is limited in the information it can provide. Daystar Peterson is being housed at CCI,” the message read.

Lanez was sentenced to 10 years in prison for shooting Megan Thee Stallion. He still denies shooting Megan Thee Stallion and will continue to fight for his freedom. His attorney is working on his appeal and last week he applied for bail for a second time but has not been released.
