GILFORD, NH — A musician, who was accused of repeatedly spitting on a videographer at a concert in Gilford in August 2019, has reached a deal with police to turn himself in on assault charges. According to WMUR-TV, Marilyn Manson, whose real name is Brian Hugh Warner, has reached an agreement to turn himself in an active warrant for two assault charges in Los Angeles. He faces less than a year in jail on each count and fines up to $2,000. Gilford Police Chief Anthony Bean Burpee said if Manson does follow-through on the warrant, an August arraignment could be expected in Laconia District Court. The musician would not be required to appear in court in New Hampshire for the arraignment.

Burpee rejected that accusation, the report stated. Witnesses who were at the show and posted notes on the Gilford police Facebook page in May accused Manson was spitting and blowing snot at a female videographer who was recording the performance. Performances are displayed on large video screens during concerts at the Bank of NH Pavilion. Bean Burpee said the videographer was "in the stage pit area when the alleged assaults occurred." He said the videographer was subcontracted by a New Hampshire-based company. Information about the victim and the company were also not being released, Bean Burpee added.
