Rapper A$AP Rocky’s Trial Intensifies. The trial of American rapper A$AP Rocky has taken a dramatic turn as new evidence emerges and witnesses testify in court. The legal battle has intensified as Rocky faces assault charges by his friend A$AP Telli. Fans and critics alike are closely following the developments in the high-profile case.
New Evidence Emerges in A$AP Rocky’s Assault Trial
Rapper A$AP Rocky’s Trial Intensifies.
It has taken a few years for A$AP to go to trial. The felony assault case stems from an alleged shooting of his friend in 2021.
A$AP Relli, whose real name is Terell Ephron, claims A$AP fired shots at him. According to Newsweek, Rakim Mayers, aka A$AP Rocky, got into an altercation with Relli.
This incident happened in November 2021 somewhere in Hollywood. Reports say a 9 mm pistol was fired by A$AP Rocky brazing A$AP Relli’s hand.
There were text messages sent by A$AP Relli alleging, “Y’all n**** set me up u try to take me from my daughter.” A$AP Rocky allegedly replied with, “I tried to do what ?? N****, I know u hate me, I hate u too.”
To top it off, there is surveillance footage that shows A$AP Rocky brandishing a gun. However, it has been mentioned that the gun was a prop, not a real gun.
Some testimony suggests that A$AP Relli knew A$AP Rocky carried a fake gun for security purposes. Having said this, it appears to be A$AP Relli’s word against his former friend.
Needless to say, the trial is heating up with testimonies for the prosecution.
Witnesses Testify In Court As Trial Heats Up
In a report by TMZ, A$AP Twelvyy took the stand. He mentioned the acronym “AWGE” by A$AP Rocky in his testimony.
When the photo with the letters was shown to A$AP Twelvyy, he was asked what they meant. Before A$AP Twelvyy could answer, allegedly A$AP Rocky yelled out, “Don’t say!”
Afterward, the prosecutor was disturbed when A$AP Twelvyy said, “It means AWGE.” This reply caused quite a stir in the courtroom, so the prosecutor asked the judge to allegedly force the witness to answer.
Then, A$AP Rocky’s attorney, Joe Tacopina, asked for a sidebar with the judge. As you can see, the A$AP trial has some twists and turns.
On another note, Rihanna walked in just as the scene was unfolding in court. That took the focus off of the witness momentarily.
Despite the shenanigans, if A$AP Rocky is convicted, he can face up to 24 years in prison. But we doubt A$AP Rocky will get any prison time, especially since there was no one injured in the alleged shooting.
Keep in mind that A$AP did not accept a plea deal. He wanted his case to go to court, which could have worked in his favor. It is not often that people turn down plea deals.
The case against A$AP Rocky is problematic. Even though his team faces an uphill battle, A$AP appears confident that he will not go to prison.
Otherwise, he would have taken the plea deal offered by the prosecutors. As always, we will provide updates as they arise.
