GILFORD, NH — Marilyn Manson, the heavy metal-goth rocker accused of assault during a concert in Gilford in August 2019, has been booked on charges on an active warrant issued nearly two years ago. Chief Anthony J. Bean Burpee of the Gilford Police Department said Manson, whose real name is Brian Hugh Warner, was processed by the Los Angeles, California, Police Department on July 2, on two counts of simple assault. He was accused of spitting on a camerawoman while performing a concert at the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion on Aug. 19, 2019. Manson, Bean Burpee said, was released on personal recognizance bail. The warrant was issued against him on Oct. 8, 2019, after police investigated the allegations. Part of his bail conditions required Manson to not commit any crimes while on release, to appear at all court proceedings, advise the court in writing if he changes his residency, and have no contact with the victim. A date will be set up later in Laconia District Court. This incident is not Manson's only legal problems. Last week, a fourth woman had come forward and filed a sexual abuse lawsuit against the musician. Ashley Morgan Smithline, a model, is claiming he raped, assaulted, and imprisoned her. A spokesperson denied the allegation. Esmé Bianco of "Game of Thrones," Ashley Walters, and another woman, who is remaining anonymous, have also raised allegations as has Evan Rachel Wood, his former fiancée. Several other women have also made claims against Manson. Kent Barker of Winer and Bennett out of Nashua is representing Manson in the New Hampshire case. He has been emailed for comment about the case. Patch will update this story when and if he responds.
