UPDATE
5:30 PM PT — Friday’s testimony included an interesting note from LAPD criminologist, Randy Zepeda, who told the jury he swabbed the gun for DNA and did not find any traces of Tory Lanez‘s DNA on the magazine. Zepeda also testified DNA testing on the gun came back inconclusive.
Megan Thee Stallion‘s ex-friend Kelsey Harris says she absolutely saw Tory Lanez firing a gun at Meg — that’s what she told police back in September, and today the jury heard that whole exchange.
As you know, Kelsey has been hesitant, to say the least, to give up many details while testifying this week, but on Friday prosecutors played audio of the entire interview she did with cops earlier this year … when she spilled every detail from that July 2020 night.
Kelsey says while they were in the SUV — after the party at Kylie Jenner‘s house — she and Tory first got into an argument when he made fun of Megan. When Kelsey came to her friend’s defense, she claims Tory said, “My n****, I’m gonna shoot you.” Kelsey says Tory reached toward the center console, but didn’t do anything more than that.

However, the vehicle was pulled over at that point. Then she says Meg and Tory started insulting each other’s careers, and things got so heated, both Meg and Kelsey got out of the SUV.
Almost immediately Kelsey says she started hearing gunshots, and after the 2nd or 3rd shot she turned around and says she saw Tory in the front seat firing the gun forward, over the open right front door in Meg’s direction.

Kelsey was outside of the vehicle, but behind Tory and could only see Meg from the chest up. She ran toward Megan “in defense mode,” and saw her bleeding … and Tory was still sitting in the front seat, apparently in shock.
She claims Tory walked toward them, and that’s when Kelsey and Tory started fighting. She describes it as Tory assaulting her, and adds she did not see a gun at that point.
Once they all got back in the SUV, Kelsey says she texted Megan’s security, “911. Tory shot Meg.”

Once the police arrived, Kelsey claims Tory told them not to say anything to officers because he was about to sign a big deal, and he offered both women $1 million each.
That’s all that’s been played of Kelsey’s interview so far, but there’s more to come after the lunch break.
Obviously, the audio reveals just about everything Kelsey skirted talking about on the stand — with a lot of I don’t recalls — but her memory sounded pretty solid a few months ago.
