Tory Lanez‘s prison attack footage has been leaked to the public, revealing the harrowing stabbing.
The gruesome footage, which was captured by a CCTV camera but partially obscured by an object, shows Lanez on a prison stairwell.
He is then seemingly attacked by Santino Cosio who gets on top of Lanez and repeatedly stabs at the rapper’s torso as he tries to fight his way out of the situation.
The footage appears to dispel claims made by Cosio that he was acting in self-defense.

Casio added that he then crossed paths with the Canadian rapper and that he saw something bulging out of his pocket.
The convict said he believed it was a weapon so attacked Lanez.
Casio and Lanez used to be based in neighboring cells and allegedly had a previously positive relationship.
It is not know what led to the breakdown in their relationship while Casio also claims to have been stabbed during the melee.

In response to the interview, Lanez’s legal team said: “The recent attempt on his life was savage and ferocious, underscoring the clear and present danger he faces while incarcerated. Any claim to the contrary particularly from an individual serving a life sentence for heinous crimes is not only baseless but an absurd fabrication.”
They added: “His continued confinement is both a miscarriage of justice and a threat to his safety. He must be released immediately.”
Cosio is currently serving a life sentence for murder and has a history of violence while incarcerated.

The Canadian rapper was stabbed a total of 14 times even though it is reported that prison staff responded to the attack immediately and gave Lanez prompt medical aid before he was transferred to hospital.
Lanez suffered serious injuries from the attack with both of his lungs collapsing resulting in him being put on a breathing machine by doctors.
Despite the severity of the attack, Lanez is now breathing on his own and able to talk.
He is also expected to make a full recovery from the attack.
