Marilyn Manson has finished his community service after blowing his nose on a camera operator.
The rock star was sentenced to community service for blowing his nose on a videographer during a 2019 concert in New Hampshire. He recently finished his time at Windsor Club of Glendale, a nonprofit organization based in California that provides locations for Alcoholics Anonymous and families throughout recovery.
A certificate of completion was filed at a New Hampshire court on January 30, with the singer having to file proof he completed his community service by February 4.
The music star pleaded no contest in September, which means he did not contest the charge and also did not admit guilt.
He was fined $1,400 and ordered to do 20 hours of community service after the celebrity was charged with two misdemeanour counts of simple assault. It came following an encounter with a videographer at the Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion in Gilford, on August 19, 2019.
Other terms of the sentencing include the 54-year-old remaining arrest-free and notifying local police of any New Hampshire performances for two years.
A police affidavit claimed Manson approached videographer Susan Fountain in the stage pit of the venue, put his face close to her camera and spat a “big lougee” at her. Her hands were struck with saliva. He reportedly approached her again, kneeled, covered one nostril and blew the other on her arms and hands.
The police report adds the camera shows the singer “point and laugh at Fountain as she gets down and walks away”.
She said in a statement: “I’ve never been humiliated or treated like I was by this defendant.
“For him to spit on me and blow his nose on me was the most disgusting thing a human being has ever done.”
The singer, real name Brian Warner, was permitted to complete his service in California. Initially, he had pleaded not guilty but later changed to a no contest.
