Rihanna appeared for the first time in the court during the trial of the Rocky attack on Wednesday, where the singer listened to the exhibition where the Downtown Los Angeles court heard a major certificate about an alleged shooting that could send her star partner to prison for nearly 20 years.
On the platform of witnesses, Terill Everon, also known as Asap Rilli, co -founder of ASAP Mob, was the Harlem Collective who helped launch the Rocky profession. Everon witnessed that he met Rocky, and his legal name is Rakim Maires, in Hollywood on November 6, 2021, in the hope of reforming their broken friendship.
Everon said that the two were drifting while the star of Mayers Rose and the other crew were fighting to find success. Regardless of Mayers, most ASAP crew members are now “broken or Bums”, as Efron had previously witnessed.
“I invited him to a man for six months, because I was seeing him once every six months … when he was wandering, he was fake. What is supposed to be in this thing as soon as possible?” “Everything was smoke and mirrors.”
The tensions between the two were high that night, as Efron witnessed, after Maeers heard an insult to a phone call the day before. Efron also mistakenly believed that Maeers had received a promise to pay the funeral of a collective member as quickly as possible due to an overdose.
Everon said he was hoping to crush beef with Maires when they met near W Hotel on the shooting night, but Mayers appeared with other ASAP crew and caused a confrontation immediately.
“It was like a movie … only the way he was walking … everything was caught, and there was no time to speak,” Efron said.
Prosecutors accused Maeers of shooting at Everon, who suffered a grazing wound on his hand.
Maeers accused two charges of assaulting a fatal weapon and facing the reinforcement of the ruling on using a weapon in the alleged crime. Mayers acknowledged that he was not guilty, as lawyers claim that the gun used in the meeting was a musical video pillar that was unable to shoot real bullets.
When Mairz arrived at the court at about 9:45 am, he was surrounded by the usual footnote and his educator by the media, but he was prominent anywhere on the horizon. Rihanna’s presence was not confirmed in court even a short 10 am, when journalists seen sitting between the Meers family wearing a black peas and sports glasses.
The “umbrella” singer can see Evron’s certificate with interest. She is not a witness in the case, although her relationship with Mayers appeared while choosing the jury. The Los Angeles County Judge Mark Arnold did not mention its existence, and it was not clear whether the jury was aware that it was in the court.
Its representatives did not respond to the previous requests for comments on the case.
There is a video of the confrontation between Mayers and Ephron, but it does not show the full accident.
One of the clip shows a man in a convincing heavy shirt, the general prosecutors and Everon say it is Maraz, holding Evaron around the head and neck, then pulling a gun from his belt. Another shooting appears from a distance but it does not clearly appear the face of anyone, although it takes a sound from a loud musical pollutant that looks like gunshots.
The defense lawyer at Meers Takobina-who is likely to start the interrogation of Everon on Thursday that the weapon was the “pistol pistol”, which only launched the blanks.
Everon said that the faces of a gun on his head, face and chest, as the two had been shouted. Everon insisted that he had no intention that things would turn into violence, claiming that he does not want to harm his old friend or his career tank in the music industry.
“If you resist Rocky … I am not really loved … so if I am fighting him, I definitely hit the black ball. Everon said:” All stickers love him and work with him. “
The clash was cut off when a couple walked, according to Evron. But just as things seemed to settle, Efron said he saw one of the men brought him with him – Jamal Philips, also known as ASAP 12VVY – put a knife. At that point, Efron said, he felt treason and anger.
“I like, oh, hell no. Now I am walking with them while I was screaming literally at the top of my lung … How Rocky failed for us, and how Jamal made a tour with Rocky for 8 or 9 years and returned to the projects.” . “I knew that I wouldn’t see this elegant again … Maybe I would go far if I don’t see the knife.”
