A$AP Rocky Found Not Guilty in Shooting Trial, Embraces Rihanna in Emotional Moment
Big news coming out of Los Angeles—A$AP Rocky has officially been found not guilty in his highly publicized assault trial. The courtroom erupted in cheers as the verdict was read, with the rapper immediately jumping over a court barrier to embrace Rihanna and his family in an emotional moment.
For those who might not have been following the case closely, A$AP Rocky, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, was facing two felony assault charges that could have landed him behind bars for up to 24 years . The charges stemmed from an incident in November 2021, when his former friend, Terell Ephron , also known as A$AP Relli, accused him of firing a gun during a heated argument on a Hollywood street. One of the bullets allegedly grazed Ephron’s knuckles, leading to the legal battle that just came to a dramatic close.

The jury, after carefully reviewing the evidence, ultimately decided to acquit Rocky of all charges , and you could feel the tension break instantly in that courtroom. As soon as the words “not guilty” were spoken, the place went wild—people clapping, crying, and celebrating. And Rocky? He wasted no time—he leaped over the courtroom barrier straight into Rihanna’s arms, a moment that was caught on video and is now making waves online. Rihanna, visibly emotional, held onto him tightly, shedding tears of relief.
The couple, who share two young sons, RZA and Riot Rose , had been attending the trial together, showing up in coordinated gray pinstripe outfits that had everyone talking. After the verdict, Rihanna took to Instagram to share her reaction, posting, “The glory belongs to God and God alone! Thankful and humbled by His mercy.”
And of course, the celebrations didn’t stop there. Later that night, Rocky and Rihanna were spotted at Gravitas , an exclusive private club, enjoying a late-night victory dinner. Despite the high-stakes trial, the couple remained a united front throughout, showing up in support of each other every step of the way.
This verdict is a huge relief for Rocky, who has been dealing with this legal battle for years now. With the case now behind him, fans are eager to see what’s next for the rapper—whether that’s new music, more collaborations, or just some well-deserved time with his family. One thing’s for sure: this is a major win for him, both legally and personally.
