A few years back, I did a trade or two with a guy who went by the name of dEDman. He was pretty cool and hooked me up with several live tapes that I was thrilled to get ahold of. Back in early September, he hit me up again on Soulseek and we chatted for a while about a new project/label he was working on called Welt Musik. It was to be an outlet to issue a bunch of of limited edition stuff by artists in the industrial genre, may of who haven’t released anything in years. He threw out some of the people involved and I was salivating at every single one. Not sure how baked some of them were so I won’t list them, but think Fifth Column/Reconstriction at their peaks. Biggest among these was Jared from Chemlab, who had already lined up a compilation called Feast Of Burnt RAM to be released. Was going to check back in and see how it was going, and just found out that almost a month ago his ex girlfried killed him by running him over in her car. Having only dealt with him via email, I had no idea who he was or that he’d been so involved in the scene for so long, but Jared has a pretty long tribute to dED on his myspace blog http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=9258877&blogId=510588563. Hopefully at least Feast will still get released, but I know he had so much more planned. This made me quite sad indeed.
Wow. That awful. It’s always weird when people you know only as an online presence passes in real life…it doesn’t help that you become close no matter what, even albeit if it’s in a slight way. It’s still sad. Two young people took their own lives over the past three years on the Litany.net forum on this site, and I think about them sometimes.
I hope the guilt wreaks this guy’s girlfriend.
I remember n0ise on Litany. Who was the other?
That’s a sad end alright, RIP.
What’s happening to his ex? Jail/ death penalty/ pleading crazy?

My condolences, man. Used to frequent a forum of questionable nature a while back, and shortly after I got fed up and left, one of the few cool members of the old crowd punched his ticket. I found this out almost a whole year after the fact while lurking not too long ago, but fuck, it still sucked.
Bummer.
People die.

Really? That’s awful. I’ve lurked there on and off. Who were they?
There are a few members on the forever doomed forum that I feel are close to the edge. Real close. You can sense it in their messages.

If she did that to a member of my family it would be better if the police found her before I did.
My father was killed by a psycho woman who somehow believed he was the father of her new born baby (he had met her fleetingly at a house party and said hello, that was the extent of their ‘relationship’) so I know the pain that his loved ones must be going through.
I’ve also had a few friends kill themselves because their lives were going nowhere and had a nutcase ex-flatmate accuse me of obtaining ‘indecent child material’ over the internet - which was a lie - and even had me temporarily jailed, so believe me when I say I’ve known pain.
People die.
They sure do Jupitreas. They sure do.

First of all, this makes me ask…
what happened to Jizzwad? RedVelv, I remember you mentioning him, did he say anything directly to you that could’ve indicated something negative in his life at that time?
Secondly… here’s the girlfriend probably getting a 8-10 year maximum sentence, a weak sentence given by an ‘understanding’ judge on account of her ‘fragile emotional state’ and perceived feminine vulnerability, and will probably get let out early.
Hate to say it, but if anyone touched my mum, sister or Mrs. Dildo (she’ll kill me if she finds out I referred to her as that), I’d feel better taking the law into my own hands, so to speak. Fuck that ‘vengeance doesn’t bring them back’… in some cases, it prevents the same moron from repeating their crime. A case like this happened in Australia were a cunt called Lee Robinson stabbed his girlfriend to death in 1968. Was meant to be hanged for this crime, but was let off with a 30 year maximum, and let out in 15 years… then last year, he shot his new girlfriend to death. Was found guilty and is currently awaiting sentencing.
Sad to hear about yer mate bisquito… sorry about the tangent. Same to you Amlux, that’s a horrible thing to deal with. I hope the perpetrator had the book thrown at her. With regards to all the other things you said, I know what you mean when you were talking about the shit people do in that other thread (calling the cops, accusing you of ‘crime’, etc).

Good heavens. Wasn’t expecting that. Yikes.
reading that post it said like he always was trying to set up his friends with stuff and projects and his death sucks for the obvious reasons, but in a way maybe it was a way of setting up Jared to take over the label idea they were working on and to maybe start working with other artists releasing stuff as well… just an idea…
looking for the lemonade

He used to talk about having diabetes…

Speaking as a friend, I can say that n0ise had a TON of problems. He blamed alot of his issues on his GF (ex-gf) but the problems he had were alot more deep seeded than that and he was the KING of scapegoating.
Sorry, just been meaning to post that online for a while…

Bitches don’t know how much I miss Jizzwad.
From the Welt Musik Myspace blog:
Apparently the “Grand” jury decided that Ashley Baughman, the person responsible for the death of Edward Oskar Johnson Jr. (dEDman), wasn’t all that responsible after all. They have decided to charge her with a 2nd degree MISDEMEANOR count of Vehicular Homicide and a 3rd degree FELONY count of Failure to Stop for an Accident Knowing of an Injury (1-5yrs max).
Basically with a good lawyer, Ashley might end up with a little probation for murdering Edward Oskar Johnson Jr.
So much for justice…
How did her lawyer get that kind of a sentence for such a criminal act? What was her defense? Is it due to the prison overcrowding?

That’s just stupid. Really stupid.
A guy in the UK recently got 3 years prison for ‘annoying’ a young girl on a chat site.
Yes! 3 years prison! And he wasn’t even ‘grooming’ the bitch.
Unless something is ‘pervy’ or ‘racist’ nobody gives a shit anymore.
What a joke society has become.
Intentionally killing someone with your car? Probabtion.
Flashing your ‘privates’ at someone? 2 - 5 years.
