Tory Lanez stabbing suspect’s rap sheet includes murder charge that landed him life in prison
NY Post
The inmate who allegedly stabbed Tory Lanez in prison this week has been identified as Santino Casio, and he’s already serving life in prison with the possibility of parole, The Post has confirmed.
A representative from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) told The Post that Casio, 42, is being investigated for allegedly attacking the rapper at a housing unit in the California Correctional Institution, Tehachapi, on Monday, May 12, at approximately 7:20 a.m. PT.
Casio’s rap sheet is a mile long and dates back to 2004, when he was sentenced to life with the possibility of parole for second-degree murder, first-degree attempted murder, personal use of a dangerous or deadly weapon, and inflict great bodily injury, per the CDCR spokesperson.
His crimes didn’t stop during lockup either.
On Jan. 3, 2008, during his incarceration, Casio was sentenced to an additional six years for assault by a prisoner with a deadly weapon of force likely to cause great bodily injury, the CDCR representative shared with The Post.
Over 10 years later, he was given an additional two years for possession and manufacture of a deadly weapon by a prisoner.
