Lanez denied that he leaked any confidential information about the case. Previously, we reported that media personality DJ Akademiks wrote in a since-deleted tweet that “Tory Lanez DNA was NOT found” on the weapon allegedly used to shoot Megan in the feet, per Rolling Stone. His name was also brought up during the hearing by the District Attorney.

“Since the last court date, it was apparent there were some leaks of part of the discovery to the members of the public,” the D.A. allegedly said, in a transcript posted by the media personality. “Mainly there was an individual identified as DJ Akademiks has made additional comments that he had access to the police report.”

Akademiks posted a photo of the hearing transcript with the above statement on Instagram and replied in the caption, “How many times they finna bring up my name in the case wit Meg n tory… i done told y’all I got the documents from Roc Nation n Meg squad.”
