The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department’s investigation into allegations of sexual abuse against Brian Warner (Marilyn Manson) is still ongoing, but the department has submitted its initial findings to the L.A. District Attorney’s Office, The Daily Beast first reported Monday and a representative of the D.A.’s office has confirmed to The FADER. The office sent the following statement: “On September 19, 2022, investigators from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department provided partial case material to LADA pertaining to the sexual assault allegations against Brian Warner, also known as Marilyn Manson.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has submitted a “partial” report on its investigation into the sexual abuse claims made against Marilyn Manson to the LA District Attorney’s Office. However, prosecutors say they need more before they can consider possible criminal charges.“On 19 Sep 2022, investigators from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department provided partial case material to LADA pertaining to the sexual assault allegations against Brian Warner, also known as Marilyn Manson”, says the DA’s Office in a statement.

Marilyn Manson has been submitted to the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office.Back in February 2021, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department began investigating the abuse allegations that were made against Manson. It came after actor Evan Rachel Wood (Manson’s former partner) and several other women accused Manson of sexual abuse, grooming and manipulation.

In something of an unusual move, the LA County District Attorney George Gascón has posted a video message to Instagram providing an update on the police investigation into the allegations of sexual abuse that have been made against Marilyn Manson.The LA County Sheriff’s Department first announced that its Special Victims Unit was looking into abuse allegations against Manson – real name Brian Warner – back in February 2021.The investigation began after actor Evan Rachel Wood confirmed that, when she had previously spoken about an abusive former partner, she was talking about her relationship with the musician. Other women then subsequently came forward also accusing Warner of abuse, some of whom then filed lawsuits in relation to their allegations.When an earlier allegation of abuse was made against Warner in LA County in 2018 – with the musician accused of having held a woman captive for two days in 2011 – the DA’s office decided not to pursue a case against him, stating that the statute of limitations had expired and that there was an “absence of corroboration”.But the reason that the DA’s office has not taken any action this time round, Gascón says, is simply because it is still waiting for the LA Country Sheriff’s Department to submit any report stemming from its investigation.In the statement on Instagram, Gascón explains: “The Brian Warner matter is still under investigation by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and has not yet been submitted to our office”.“Please be assured that we are requesting regular updates on the status of the investigation”, he adds.
