Marilyn Manson�s Crotch Not a Weapon

A jury in Minnesota sided with Marilyn Manson after hearing testimony against the shock rocker on charges of battery and that he causing emotional distress to a security guard at one of his concerts. The security guard, David Diaz, sued Manson after the performer allegedly pulled the unsuspecting guard�s head into his and gyrated, during a concert three years ago. 

Diaz was seeking more than $75,000 in damages. Manson contended that his actions did not constitute assault and after 11 hours of deliberation when the jury returned with a verdict, they apparently agreed. 

Manson faces a similar civil suit in Michigan for a crotch gyrating episode with another security guard during a 2001 concert. Last year, Manson entered a plea of no contest to criminal charges of assault and battery and disorderly conduct that were brought against him following that incident.
