| MALEVOLENCE Reveal New Album Where Only The Truth Is Spoken |
armed large men in body armor, along with four plainclothes detectives. To the immense surprise of my bandmates and
myself, I was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter concerning the death of a LAMB OF GOD fan. We had played Prague
two years previously, and unbeknownst to any of us, a young man had sustained an injury to the head during our show, dying
a month later. The police said that I was the cause of that injury. I was promptly incarcerated and spent the next
thirty-seven days in a 123 year old crumbling prison on the outskirts of Prague. After a long and complex process during
which my band had to borrow almost half a million bucks, I was released on bail and returned to the United States. Instead
of hiding like a coward in the U.S., safe from extradition (the U.S. government had refused to cooperate with the Czechs
after they requested assistance in investigating me immediately after the young man died. My government also did not deem
it necessary to inform me that I was a wanted man in a foreign country. Your tax dollars at work.), I returned to Prague
in early 2013 to stand trial. I did this for several reasons, first and foremost being I felt the family of this young man
deserved some answers, and I was the only one who could provide them. I felt it unethical to hide from my problems while
they grieved the loss of their son. As the father of a dead daughter, I understood their pain in a very visceral way. I
had tried to hide from my problems for over twenty years by crawling into a bottle. I do not live that way anymore, so to
hide from this would have been intolerable for me. I believe it would have lead me back to the drink, and from there, I
would have surely died.
