A$AP Rocky Ordered to Stand Trial


Last year Harlem rapper A$AP Rocky was arrested on felony assault charges after his former associate, A$AP Relli, accusing Rocky of shooting at him [click here if you missed that]. 

Today a judge ruled that there was enough evidence for a trial...

Rapper A$AP Rocky will stand trial on charges that he fired a gun at a former friend and collaborator outside a Hollywood hotel in 2021, a judge has ruled.
Superior Court Judge M.L. Villar ruled on Monday that there was enough evidence for a trial at a preliminary hearing, after hearing roughly a day and a half of testimony.
Rocky has pleaded not guilty to two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm. His attorney attempted to cast doubt on the case while questioning a police detective.
A$AP Rocky, real name Rakim Mayers, is facing up to eight years in jail if convicted of two felony counts of assault with a semi-automatic firearm.
He arrived at court Monday wearing a black suit, matching black face mask, black tie with white dots and a floral brooch.
The 35-year-old rap star and father of two children with Rihanna has pleaded not guilty to charges alleging he fired a gun at a former friend and collaborator.
Villar said 'the totality of the video and testimony' shows there is sufficient evidence for the defendant to go to trial. She emphasized that preliminary hearings have a much lower evidence standard than a trial, and she was only finding probable cause.
Rocky, sitting in the courtroom, showed no visible reaction.
