I didn't realize "Decapitated" was the name of the band at first and I was very confused for a few seconds.

Looks like a groupie went with them and got pissed when they told her it was her problem getting home. They have witnesses saying she was excited to go with them and completely willing.

Sounds like the most they're guilty of is being kinda dickish in not helping a groupie get home. But that's a far, far cry from kidnapping unless she wanted to leave earlier and they didn't let her. That would be kidnapping even if she was willing to go with them at first.
Personally I have my doubts, though.

Thing is, most likely there wasn't much they could do to get her home. Most underground metal bands tour with zero crew and very limited funds. They basically play a gig, load out, have a few drinks, drive to the next city, load in, sound check, repeat. No time to drive her back, and financially, it would be pay for a bus ticket, or eat. If you get invited to go to the next city with a band, it should go without saying that you're on your own when you part ways.
Shit, even I've been invited to stay on a tour bus when it was getting ready to leave, and that is exactly the reason I declined. I couldn't afford to get home.

I know most people in metal are actually very nice, but still: Who hangs out with a group of people called Decapitated and then is surprised when they turn out to not be very nice? Did she really think they were gonna take care of her expenses?

Every other article I'm seeing on this says they're being accused of gang-raping her, not just kidnapping. Odd that this one completely leaves that part out.

No, Metal Injection has included that detail on their reports. Never mind, misread what you posted. I remain a complete idiot. And the band is now going to be extradited to Washington for trial.

I posted it when the story first broke. though I'll update the original post to include the later articles too. good idea!

Damn. This the first music kidnapping case since Fishbone? At least that one really turned out to be a BS charge.

If true - I hope they get the book thrown at them. If not - I hope she gets the book thrown at her.
Either which way, this is a shitty situation.

Saw the Dallas date of this tour in August. Sad news. A little weird that Thy Art Is Murder or Fallujah haven't made any comment yet.

Jesus. Hope it's not true, for the sake of both the band and the girl.

Guitarist of TAIM has given a statement that one of the victims was moshing violently during their set and he saw her crash into the barricade several times. If the prosecutions case is based upon signs of bodily harm, that’s a serious blow.

Wasn't this the band that royally pissed off Jon Taffer when he first walked into Headhunters?

dropped with prejudice meaning they could be brought up on charges again in the future.
