TMZ <\/a>reports Lanez was transported to the hospital after he was stabbed by another inmate in the yard of the California<\/a> Correctional Institution in Tehachapi on Monday morning.<\/p>\n

The injury Lanez, 32, sustained is said to be non life-threatening but what prompted the alleged attack remains unclear.<\/p>\n

An insider told the site that an ambulance rushed Lanez to a civilian hospital in Bakersfield, a town around an hour drive away.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Page Six<\/a> reports Lanez was stabbed numerous times in the face.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He was convicted in December 2022 of assault with a semiautomatic firearm; keeping a loaded and unregistered firearm in a vehicle; and discharging the firearm with gross negligence.<\/p>\n

In August of 2023, Lanez received a 10-year prison sentence in Los Angeles Superior Court Tuesday, in connection with three felony convictions in the July 2020 incident in the Hollywood Hills.<\/p>\n

In the sentencing, Judge David Herriford said that the positive portrait Lanez’s relatives and friends had painted in their testimony in the trial was ‘difficult to reconcile’ with his actions toward Megan.<\/p>\n

‘Sometimes good people do bad things,’ Herriford told the court, according to the AP. ‘Actions have consequences, and there are no winners in this case.’<\/p>\n

In the trial, Megan testified Lanez had shot at her feet and yelled at her to dance as she was getting out of an SUV following a party at the home of Kylie Jenner.<\/p>\n

Megan, who initially did not publicly identify Lanez as the shooter, testified she had to undergo surgery to take bullet fragments out of her feet.<\/p>\n

‘Since I was viciously shot by the defendant, I have not experienced a single day of peace,’ the songstress said in a statement a prosecutor read prior to the sentencing. ‘Slowly but surely, I’m healing and coming back, but I will never be the same.’<\/p>\n

Prior to his sentence being read, Lanez – who faced up to 22 years in custody – had asked the judge for a short sentence or probation, stating his regret of the incident in hindsight.<\/p>\n

‘If I could turn back the series of events that night and change them, I would,’ Lanez told the judge. ‘The victim was my friend. The victim is someone I still care for to this day. Everything I did wrong that night, I take full responsibility for.’<\/p>\n

\"Lanez's <\/p>\n

Lanez’s Instagram account has remained active during his incarceration, and last week he shared a photo of himself with others that appeared to be taken in prison<\/p>\n

Lanez was credited 10 months for time served, as he has been in custody since his conviction in December.<\/p>\n

Lanez’s lead lawyer Jose Baez said he was ‘extremely disappointed’ with the sentence, and felt that it was ‘to set an example’ since the rapper is a celebrity, adding, ‘He\u00b4s not an example – he’s a human being.’<\/p>\n

Baez added, ‘I have seen vehicular homicide and other cases where there’s death, and the defendant still gets less than 10 years.’<\/p>\n

In February, he filed an appeal, with his legal team claiming ‘erroneous admission of evidence’ and ‘prosecutorial misconduct’ as their reason for the appeal, according to Us Weekly.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Prosecutors spoke positively of Megan for her fortitude in coming forward amid online hate and mockery aimed at her over the incident involving Lanez.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gasc\u00f3n said, ‘I hope that Miss Pete’s bravery gives hope to those who feel helpless.’<\/p>\n
