Haha i guess so...

Shouldn't he be arrested instead of just paying a "little fine"? These laws make me confused... No wonder women are afraid to press charges in domestic violence and rape cases. These guys always get away with it.

I don't think being held on a bond is the same as a fine, altho I'm not familiar with american law I could be wrong.

Um, yeah, not funny. He doesn't deserve the right to one, now. As far as the law goes around here, he technically should get jail time but probably won't. That always happens...Can't say I know why though.

Ha! lol!

Ha! lol!

I don't see anything funny going on here in this news item.
SO please enlighten us as what is so funny.

Jiri shakes his head at Jeffy. This is not trve a black metal aggrivation assault. We are supposed attack and murder homosexauls and midget folk like Euronymous. Not women! Black metal is far to gay to even involve women! Sure they kill homos, but that is only to hide their own gayness. Shame on you Wrest, you son of a bitch!

bond is not a fine. he will remain in jail until his trial unless he can come up with $350,000 for a bond. basically, if he can come up with the money, he'll be free to stay around the Chicago area until the time of his trial. if he attempts to, say, flee to Canada the money is forfeit and he remains a fugitive. if found guilty in a trial, he'll do some serious time in prison.

and $350,000 is hardly a "little fine" (or bond) - as a tattoo artist/bm musician, he probably doesn't make that much in five to ten years.

Aren't there senators or dirty politics (The active/"business as usual" form of gov't in the States as of the W. Presidency) the paper can make more of an issue out of than a musician?

Don't get me wrong domestic stuff is really messed up (If it's true... "alleged") but honestly where is an explanation or breakdown of things that're going on in the country instead of "Wild stories about individual occurrences" that the courts are there to decide?

Oh I get in now. So he'll be awaiting his trial in jail or pay the bond. I thought that was already his sentence. Sorry, I misinterpreted.

About the "little fine" I was being sarcastic and serious at the same time: of course that is everything but little for someone like him. But in my understanding, for someone who does such a thing any bond is a little fine compared to what he deserves. IF he's actually guilty of course.

a bond is merely collateral that the accused can be let out of jail, will be good citizen, and until the trial. a bond has absolutely nothing to do with a fine or what "he deserves". bond values are set by a judge and determined by a combination of the seriousness of the crime and the flight risk of the accused. so forget everything you thought before reading this, as you were not even close...

First - Politics/politicans were corrupt well before the Bush administration, and are still every bit as corrupt now. I'd say even MORESO. That's the kind of stuff that makes the front page.

Second - "than a musician" - the paper, as i stated earlier, did not even mention his musical career. and it wasn't just domestic "stuff", it was alleged battery and sexual assault that apparently also involved a tattoo needle or some other piece of gear. the paper's job is also to report on local news items that might be of interest.

or are you actually stating papers should ignore everything aside from political corruption circa 2000-2008?

I feel sorry for his girlfriend; such domestic abuse and violence against women is wrong and outlandishly indecent. And no, there isn't anything funny about it. Commments including the endlessly overused term "lol" I feel are inaprropriate here, especially being placed where it was, after the comment explaining that something relevant was unfunny.

Written by [user id=100131] on 10.01.2011 at 18:31

Ha! lol!

To place "Ha! Lol!" as a response, direct or indirect, to news about a man assaulting his girlfriend is distasteful and inconsiderate. Also, as for an album being released by this man, that's not my concern at the moment; I felt disappointed seeing the misplaced concern being revealed in the first comment here, when future music material is ultimately irrelevant to this piece of news. Somebody was physically harmed here, and that is more important than an upcoming album of sorts. Well, those are my two cents.

I still hold true to the principle that he is innocent until proven guilty. If he really did sexually assault his girlfriend, then he deserves all the punishment and mockery he gets.

The bond he will actually pay will only be 1/10 of what the actual set bond is if he uses a bail bondsman. For example, if a person's bond is set at 50,000$, that person will have to pay $5000 up front to the bail bondsman and then they will pay the rest, so that the person will be free to remain in the local area until the trial.

Secondly, SOMETHING apparently happened to the woman, since she went to the hospital in serious condition. Several factors will determine his guilt or innocence in a court of law. There will be both her testimony and any physical or material evidence gathered before the trial by police and investigators, to include medical examinations and blood and tissue samples.

If he really did this, then I am terribly disappointed that he would do something like this. Unfortunately, it happens all too often in america and the laws are not tough enough on these bastards. A lot of women wind up dead because of abuse. While we may not be able to say if this was the result of a heated argument or continued abuse, in either case, it is inexcusable. Any abuse shows cowardice on the part of the abuser.

I'm still gonna listen to his music. He doesn't talk about beating women in it, as far as I'm aware.

This just sounds like a Massive Conspiracy Against All Leviathan if you ask me...

Eh.....go look up the lyrics to "A Necessary Mutilation". Not "beating", so much as "viciously raping and killing with rocks"
