A$AP Rocky’s Trial Nears Verdict: Real Bullets or Blanks?

Jurors are set to deliberate on A$AP Rocky’s trial, where he faces two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm for a 2021 shooting incident involving former friend A$AP Relli (Terell Ephron).

Prosecutors argue that Rocky fired two real shots, while the defense claims he only fired blanks from a fake gun. If convicted, Rocky could face up to 24 years in prison.

Testimonies were conflicting—Relli said he was grazed by a bullet, while A$AP Twelvyy and Rocky’s tour manager testified that Rocky fired a starter pistol to warn Relli. No gun was found, and the only physical evidence—two shell casings—was brought in by Relli two days later.

The prosecution insists that Relli’s story is consistent, dismissing the prop gun claim as a fabrication. Meanwhile, Rocky’s lawyers portray Relli as a jealous opportunist seeking a payout from his famous former friend.

Closing arguments are expected to be heated, with the jury’s decision potentially bringing a major turning point in Rocky’s career.
