Marilyn Manson was sentenced to community service due to a 2019 New Hampshire concert where he blew his nose on a videographer. The singer has recently completed his time at an organization helping alcoholics and their families, as USA Today reported.
Manson spent 20 hours in service at the Windsor Club of Glendale, a nonprofit in California known for offering space for Alcoholics Anonymous and Al-Anon meetings.
According to the Assistance League of Los Angeles, the rocker submitted his certificate of completion to a New Hampshire court on January 30, ahead of the February 4 deadline.
The Details Of His Misdemeanor Charges
Last September, Marilyn Manson entered a no-contest plea to the misdemeanor charge in Laconia, meaning that he did not dispute the charge but also did not admit to any guilt.
The original charges against the 55-year-old included two misdemeanor counts of simple assault from the event at the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion in Gilford on August 19, 2019. The second charge, accusing him of spitting on the videographer, was later dismissed.
In addition to community service, Manson was fined and ordered to inform local police about any shows in New Hampshire over the next two years, although he remained arrest-free.
The singer had previously pleaded not guilty to both charges in 2021. His lawyer argued that the filming done by the videographer naturally comes with the risk of ‘incidental contact’ with bodily fluids.
The Singer’s Other Legal Troubles
In another legal matter, a lawsuit Manson filed against his former fiancée, Evan Rachel Wood, saw a significant turn. A judge in California dismissed major parts of the shock rocker’s claim that Wood had made false accusations of sexual and physical abuse during their relationship.
Manson is appealing this decision while a recent ruling requires him to pay for the actress’ legal costs.
