Asap Rocky to Remain in Swedish Jail…Will go to Trial on Assault Charges
Breaking news on Asap Rocky. Asap Rocky has been jailed in Sweden since July 3 after being involved in a fight on June 30th with a group of men. And Swedish law doesn’t allow bail so he’s been waiting to face charges. He was officially charged with assault earlier this morning and will have to remain in jail until his trial which has yet to get a date. You’ve probably seen video of the fight that’s been circulating and it does clearly show Rocky throwing a man to the ground although Rocky’s lawyer said he was acting in self defense. Although the prosecutor in the case says he has access to more video that the public hasn’t seen that shows Rocky’s guilt…along with witness statements. His trial will be set next week.
