In response to the wrongful
death suit against Marilyn Manson two months ago,
the following statement was released on Manson's official
site shortly after the suit was made public.
Marilyn Manson has reviewed
the lawsuit filed by Maria St. John (the mother of
deceased Jennifer Syme), seeking to hold Manson responsible
for SymeÕs death as a result of a solo car crash,
which occurred in the early morning hours of April
2, 2001. Manson describes as Òcompletely falseÓ St.
JohnÕs allegation that he furnished to Syme what St.
JohnÕs lawsuit describes as Òvarious quantities of
an illegal controlled substance.Ó
Manson believes that
the lawsuit is completely unfounded and is investigating
an immediate counter-suit against St. John for slander,
harassment and abuse of the legal process. ÒThis lawsuit,
which is completely without merit, will not bring
back JenniferÕs life. It serves only to reopen the
wounds and the pain felt by all who loved Jennifer.
It is a pity that St. John sullies her own daughterÕs
reputation by filing this baseless claim.Ó
After Manson and his
five guests finished an evening at the movies followed
by a quiet get together at his home, he made sure
Syme received a safe ride home from a designated driver
and went to sleep. "
Thanks a lot
