Rocky is accused of firing a gun at Terell Ephron, a former childhood friend who testified their relationship had soured and a feud allegedly came to a head on the night of 6 November 2021.

The US rapper is accused of firing a gun at Terell Ephron, a former childhood friend who testified their relationship had soured and a feud allegedly came to a head on the night of 6 November 2021. But Rocky's attorney, Joe Tacopina, said in the defence opening statement the video evidence is meaningless without the testimony of the accuser, Ephron, who he argued is driven by "jealousy, lies and greed". "The evidence in this case will show that the man in the black sweatshirt is the defendant, Rakim Mayers," said Deputy District Attorney Paul Przelomiec, using Rocky's legal name.
