'Get home ASAP A$AP!'
President Donald Trump announced A$AP Rocky would be released from prison in Sweden following a week-long trial over an alleged assault of a 19-year-old man.
"A$AP Rocky released from prison and on his way home to the United States from Sweden. It was a Rocky Week, get home ASAP A$AP!" Trump wrote. Rocky pleaded not guilty to assault charges earlier in the week. The rapper has long claimed he and his entourage were only acting in self-defense during the altercation on June 30.
Rocky's legal team disputed protections claims the men"deliberately, together and in agreement" attacked Jafari and highlighted video footage depicting Jafari provoking the musician and his entourage.
