translated from Spanish: Megadeth fires his bassist for exchanging sexual content allegedly with a minor

Metal band Megadeth has decided to dispense with their bassist, David Ellefson, weeks after messages came to light in which they exchanged sexual content with a woman who was supposedly underage.” We inform our fans that David Ellefson will no longer play with Megadeth and that we officially separated from him. We didn’t make this decision lightly,” the band said in a statement posted on their social media. In early May, a series of explicit messages and images were disseminated on the internet in which Ellefson sexually insinuated hem as a girl who was supposed to be underage, something the musician denied by insisting that they were “private and adult interactions, manipulated and taken out of context.” In his defense, the bassist posted a message stating that the alleged woman claimed that she was an adult and that the entire exchange was “consented”. However, that publication was later deleted and the girl’s identity was never confirmed. In the face of confusion, the band fired the bassist after explaining that they were already in a bad relationship before the incident happened.” While we do not know all the details of what has happened, with a relationship that was already tense, what has now been revealed is enough to make it impossible to move forward together. We look forward to seeing our fans touring this summer and sharing our new music with the world,” the lineup justified. Megadeth is considered one of the great metal bands, alongside Anthrax, Slayer and Metallica. From the latter lineup came the original group, as vocalist Dave Mistaine created Megadeth after being expelled from Metallica in 1983.
