Dumbass.
Speaking of, I meant to bump this thread last month when I saw that a, presumably very disappointed, former Iced Earth fan dumped damn near the band's entire catalog on CD at a local used shop.

In hindsight Iced Earth's problematic politics probably should've been obvious when Matt Barlow left to join the DHS and they replaced him with right-wing idiot Tim "Ripper" Owens. Also Schaffer's side project about how the Federal Reserve is evil.— Jeff Treppel (@JeffTreppel) April 16, 2021

Hard to maintain a “snitches get stitches” ethos when you’ve got a thin blue line full back tattoo.

He's doing this in hopes that prosecutors will recommended a lesser sentence for the crimes he committed. Here is the "information" the govt submitted detailing the crimes he's pleaded guilty tohttps://t.co/Y2R4Pr8tlh— Ken Bensinger (@kenbensinger) April 16, 2021

Anyway Jeff's working on a story so sharing this out:
If anyone here knows any former members of Iced Earth, associates of Jon Schaffer, Ripper Owens, or Matt Barlow, or former tourmates who would be willing to go on the record, please DM me (and feel free to retweet).— Jeff Treppel (@JeffTreppel) April 16, 2021
