Marilyn Manson will plead no contest in New Hampshire to a misdemeanor simple assault charge, Billboard studies. The cost stems from an incident at a 2019 concert in Gilford the place Manson allegedly blew his nostril on a videographer. The rock musician was charged with two counts of straightforward assault, however the second cost might be dismissed with a negotiated plea deal, in response to Billboard.
Whereas Manson’s arrest warrant was issued in October 2019, he didn’t turn himself in to authorities till the spring of 2021. Manson, who had confronted a possible jail sentence if discovered responsible, has denied the assault allegations. A choose is anticipated to listen to Manson’s plea tomorrow, in response to Billboard.
