About the episode
In July 2020, Megan Thee Stallion was shot on a dark road in the Hollywood Hills. What followed wasn’t just a criminal trial — it was years of online speculation, viral misinformation, and competing narratives that blurred the line between fact and fiction. In this episode of Night Watch, Katie Ring traces the full arc of the case: the shooting, the criminal conviction of Tory Lanez, and the digital backlash that refused to accept the verdict. We examine how online commentary escalated into defamation, the role of AI-generated deepfakes, and the federal civil trial that forced a jury to confront a modern question: when does “opinion” become harmful?
