So what are you trying to contradict? The statute of limitations expiring doesn't make him any less of an abuser. Neither does the outcome of one or more of the multiple cases. It applies only to that specific case and its scope. Manson also settled with Bianco and pulled his defamation lawsuit against Gore and Wood, paying Wood's legal fees. She has since reiterated her allegations. Your own comment mentioning an open case suggests the matters are nowhere near resolved even legally.
More importantly, let's hear from the man himself:
I did have an experience where I was struggling to deal with being alone and being forsaken and being betrayed by putting your trust in one person, and making the mistake of that being the wrong person. And that’s a mistake that everyone can relate to. I made the mistake of trying to, desperately, grasp on and save that and own it. And every time I called her that day — I called 158 times — I took a razorblade and I cut myself on my face or on my hands.
I look back and it was a really stupid thing to do. This was intentional, this was a scarification, and this was like a tattoo. I wanted to show her the pain she put me through. It was like, “I want you to physically see what you’ve done.” It sounds made up but it’s completely true and I don’t give a shit if people believe it or not. I’ve got the scars to prove it. I didn’t want people to ask me every time I did an interview, “Oh, is this record about your relationship with your ex-girlfriend?” But that damage is part of it, and the song “I Want to Kill You Like They Do in The Movies” is about my fantasies. I have fantasies every day about smashing her skull in with a sledgehammer.
Now ask any qualified psychologist if this is abusive.
















Why attempt to defend him if you truly separate the art from the artist? What does it matter if he's an abuser or not? Moreover, it's impossible to separate Manson's music from himself, as evident from the last sentences of the quote in my previous comment. And that's not even touching on how promoting awful people who are alive leads to them getting paid and enabled. Some of them, like JKR, who also happens to be in the same circle of friends as Manson and Depp, then use that money to further political causes that remove people's rights.
