Lanez was convicted of assault using a semiautomatic weapon, carrying an unregistered loaded firearm in a car, and firing a firearm grossly negligently.

Megan testified she saw Lanez shooting her, and that he said to her “Dance b*tch”, as he fired his gun. She said she was also shocked and confused at the time.

A firearm discharged with gross negligence can also result in criminal charges. It involves using a gun recklessly or carelessly that could cause injury or death.
It can be firing into a crowd, shooting a weapon while drunk or high, or not handling or securing a firearm properly. Specific charges and penalties depend on jurisdiction and circumstances.
Remember that everyone has the right to a fair, impartial trial. It is the duty of the legal system that justice be served.
It is vital that anyone charged with a criminal offense or who is a victim of one understands the legal system and seeks the advice of an experienced lawyer.
