The A$AP Rocky assault trial just turned into a courtroom brawl—not between Rocky and A$AP Relli, but between the attorneys themselves. If you thought this was just another legal battle, think again—this one had smoke in the air.
The courtroom erupted into chaos when the prosecution and defense clashed mid-trial. Insults were thrown, tempers flared, and at one point, the energy felt more like a pre-fight press conference than a legal proceeding.
THE CASE: WHAT’S REALLY GOING DOWN?
Rocky is facing two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm for allegedly firing two shots at his former friend A$AP Relli back in 2021. If convicted, he could face up to 24 years in prison.
🚨 The Defense (Rocky’s Team) Says:
- Rocky never fired real bullets—it was a prop gun picked up for a music video.
- Relli instigated the fight and was caught deleting text messages where he actually told Rocky to beat him up.
- There’s no gun as evidence.
🚨 The Prosecution (State’s Team) Says:
- The prop gun defense is a joke—this was a real gun, real shots, and real danger.
- Relli’s knuckles were grazed by a bullet (but no serious injury).
- Rocky’s celebrity status is manipulating the courtroom.
WHEN LAWYERS GO AT IT LIKE A RAP BATTLE
The real fireworks popped off when defense attorney Joe Tacopina and prosecutor Alan Lewin went head-to-head.
🔥 Tacopina went straight for the jugular, saying Relli is a liar who deleted evidence.
🔥 Lewin wasn’t having it and snapped back, accusing Tacopina of having “no ethics.”
🔥 Tacopina clapped back with his own insult, but Lewin turned up, yelling, “You should be scared, Joe!”
At this point, even the judge had to step in. This wasn’t just legal posturing—this was two attorneys seconds away from throwing real hands.
RIHANNA PULLED UP—AND THE PROSECUTION WAS BIG MAD
As if this trial wasn’t already a full-blown spectacle, Rihanna walked into court with their two sons for the first time since the trial began. The prosecution did not like that one bit.
“They brought in two adorable children yesterday for closing arguments,” Lewin argued, calling it a distraction tactic aimed at influencing the jury.
The judge finally had enough, shutting it down with a warning: “No more mentioning Rihanna or the kids in this trial.”
