Tory Lanez is facing nine to 23 years for being found guilty of shooting Megan Thee Stallion.

He will be sentenced for the three felonies related to the case next Tuesday.

In front of that, prosecutors have forwarded a memo asking the judge to give him 13 years.

“Words have power and the pen is oftentimes mightier than the sword. In this case, Daystar Peterson used both,” the memo read. “Not content to have hurt the victim by use of his sword (gun), he also used his pen. His online posts for nearly three years have re-traumatized the victim," reads the memo. “His online reach is worldwide (millions of followers plus casual observers) and the defendant’s statements embolden his followers so that they too have been complicit in re-traumatizing the victim. He is responsible for the effect of his words and his actions.”

The memo also mentions Lanez's assault on August Alsina, which happened when he was out on bail and led to house arrest.

When he is done with his sentence, Lanez will likely be deported back to Canada.
