<h3 style="text-align: center;">Here&#8217;s What We Know About Tory Lanez&#8217;s 10-Year Sentence In State Prison</h3>
<p>As <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/tory-lanez-mugshot-released-transferred-to-state-prison-photo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Shade Room</a> previously reported, Tory Lanez was transferred to North Kern State Prison in Delano, California, on September 19. The facility reportedly doubles as a &#8220;reception center&#8221; and &#8220;medium to minimum custody facility.&#8221;</p>
<p><amp-instagram data-shortcode="Cxa_oBwvKPb" layout="responsive" width="600" height="600" data-captioned></amp-instagram></p>
<p><a href="https://www.prisonpro.com/content/north-kern-state-prison" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PrisonPro</a> reports that North Kern State Prison is responsible for &#8220;diagnosing and classifying&#8221; incoming inmates by examining their &#8220;mental and physical health.&#8221; The process can reportedly take up to 90 days, and then inmates can be moved to a &#8220;more permanent&#8221; facility. Once moved, the new facility can &#8220;better&#8221; suit an inmate’s “rehabilitation needs.”</p>
<p>According to reports from <a href="https://themessenger.com/entertainment/tory-lanez-relocated-north-kern-state-prison-exclusive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Messenger</a> and <a href="https://www.legalaffairsandtrials.com/p/tory-lanez-has-been-transported-to?utm_source=post-email-title&;publication_id=1306850&;post_id=137203400&;utm_campaign=email-post-title&;isFreemail=true&;r=2nnkjo&;utm_medium=email" target="_blank" rel="noopener">legal reporter Meghann Cuniff</a>, Lanez is expected to be detained at North Kern State Prison for three to six months. Then, he will reportedly be transferred to a more &#8220;long-term&#8221; facility to serve the rest of his sentence.</p>
<p>Cuniff adds that although Lanez had received a 10-year sentence from Judge David Herriford, he has presumably been credited with over 353 days served, shortening his time in prison.</p>
<p>According to a recent report from <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/09/25/tory-lanez-not-scared-afraid-general-population-prison/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TMZ</a>, Lanez hopes to make the most of his time in prison and would like to be housed with the general population. Additionally, the outlet reports that the rapper would like &#8220;access to more programs and resources.&#8221;</p>
<p>Furthermore, the outlet reports that Lanez is not concerned for his safety. Meanwhile, the rapper&#8217;s legal team will continue to work on his behalf to have his sentencing appealed.</p>
<p>As <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/tory-lanez-mugshot-released-transferred-to-state-prison-photo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Shade Room</a> previously reported, the rapper&#8217;s notice of appeal was filed on August 10. However, the proceedings concerning Lanez&#8217;s appeal may not begin until 2024.</p>
<p>Judge David Herriford has remained confident in his sentencing of Tory, as the rapper maintains his innocence regarding his conviction.</p>
