    For people who say “aSAp ShOuldVe TaKeN tHE PlEa!”:
    “Rocky pleaded not guilty and rejected a plea deal that would have seen him plead guilty to one assault charge and serve 180 days in county jail with three years probation and a seven-year suspended prison sentence.”

    • @therealmrstaten

      And if he's found guilty of assault with a deadly weapon then what? Those 180 days would have been nothing. He clearly discharged a weapon in public. On VidEO.

  • @beyoncep7
    @beyoncep7 5 днів тому +4

    If anyone is really smart, then you will know, that this was a “Prop” gun. The thing is, Relli figured out that it was a prop gun and once he did, figuring out that it could be on video because of the area and that he could get ASAP Rocky in trouble still, begin to “set the stage” as if it was a real gun. So you ask, why did ASAP Rocky run… ASAP Rocky wanted “everyone” to believe he was tuff and actually came and shot a gun at Relli. The running away would work to make it all seem real. So Relli then comes back and plants the bullet evidence.

    If you have to impeach your own witness like Hylton from the YSL trial then, it’s time to let it go. Any amount of reasonable doubt = NG. Even if Rocky shot him, Relli is not a credible witness due to his inconsistent recollection and extortionist behavior. I was a juror on a similar type of case and we acquitted for that reason. Witness credibility, motive & intent leaves a lasting impression on jurors.

While the defense attorney is also from NY, Ephron has the clear advantage in that he's known Rocky half his life. No doubt, Rocky told that defense attorney a boat load of lies!!!

      It is relevant because the defense said in opening statements that the injuries on his knuckles aren’t from him being grazed with a bullet but from him fighting one of the men that was present and breaking his jaw. He said the part about Rocky’s cousin to show that it was Rocky’s cousin who broke the person’s jaw years before this incident happened. Shattering yet another defense theory.
