Iced Earth frontman Jon Schaffer evades notice of D.C. civil lawsuit at least 25 times

Schaffer has evaded being served "at least 25" times

Jon Schaffer at Capitol

A recent report from The Republic indicates that Iced Earth frontman Jon Schaffer has evaded being served "at least 25" times regarding the District of Columbia's lawsuit against him for participating in the January 6, 2021 riots. Here is a full copy of that lawsuit.

Attempts have been made to serve Schaffer at seven different addresses across three states without success. According to the Attorney General of the District of Columbia Karl Racine, Schaffer and 30 others were accused of "conspiring to terrorize" the district as a result of their involvement in the actions that took place on January 6, 2021. The lawsuit was filed in Washington, DC on December 14, 2021.

By doing so, they hope to have the parties held liable for the millions of dollars spent handling the situation, including police costs, the resulting medical bills, etc. A plea deal resulted in Schaffer's conditional release in April of last year, after he turned himself in on January 17th of 2021.

As part of that deal, he must provide information about the actions that took place that day, including any possible involvement of the Oath Keepers organization with which he has been alleged to be affiliated. 

The agreement involved Schaffer entering guilty pleas to obstruction of Congress's official proceedings and trespassing on restricted grounds of the Capitol while armed with a deadly weapon. In this case, the dangerous weapon was a cannister of bear spray. The deal also resulted in the dismissal of several other charges.


Schaffer hasn't been served at his current residence in Auburndale, FL despite stakeouts and ongoing efforts to serve him. A judge denied requests to serve him by email or press publication. To date, requests for cooperation from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, which is handling Schaffer's criminal action, have not yet been granted.

He didn't do anything wrong.

"He didn't do anything wrong." - the law and morality disagree with you.

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:10:18 PM

He should have spent his time organizing a drag queen show for little kids. Like a good and upstanding citizen would.

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:19:14 PM

Lock him up and throw away the key.

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:24:01 PM

Is this him running from the feds or his usual meth and incest run?

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:24:29 PM

I hope people see that this was a staged event by our own government to just arrest people and cause civil unrest

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:25:48 PM

Jan 6th was great. Too bad they didn't kill everyone

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:31:47 PM

Please continue to help the FBI identify all of the "Antifa" from Jan 6.

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:34:05 PM

Good job Lambgoat on bringing undue attention to this. Focus on one of the rapey pedo screamo singers who actually needs the hate.

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:34:36 PM

This guy is an idiot

BigDog 10/2/2022 7:47:58 PM

Whatever he may have done on January 6th will forever pale in comparison to the crimes he has committed against music. LOCK HIM UP!

anonymous 10/2/2022 7:58:58 PM

Wow you're all a bunch of government loving gays

anonymous 10/2/2022 8:01:09 PM

I heard he's helping Mike Lindell in his quest of having SCOTUS overturn the 2020 election. I'm sure they're just days away from that happening.

anonymous 10/2/2022 8:02:37 PM

I heard he's helping Sidney Powell track down the Kraken so it can be released successfully this time.

Is Ginna Thomas Trump dressed in drag? I've never seen them in a picture together or at the same gatherings. This looks like some Mrs Doubtfire shit going on.

Yeah, whatever happened to that overturned election anyhow?

There was no insurrection. There should have been, but unfortunately there wasnt.

anonymous 10/2/2022 9:30:12 PM

May be using a venn diagram will help find him...

anonymous 10/2/2022 9:40:00 PM

Just wait, the audits are going to change everything!

anonymous 10/2/2022 10:46:24 PM

He's probably playing Magic: The Gathering at a strip mall game & hobby store for homosexuals.

anonymous 10/2/2022 10:50:52 PM

Of course he's from Florida.

anonymous 10/2/2022 11:08:29 PM

Lmao gotta give the Cheetos Crew some cred for keeping their "insurrection" mostly peaceful. When the lefties lose across the board in a couple years, they'll just riot and f**k up their own communities lol

anonymous 10/2/2022 11:10:14 PM

If he didn't do anything wrong then he doesn't have anything to worry about. Just comply.

anonymous 10/2/2022 11:45:48 PM

Trump is a drag queen. Wears heels, wears make-up, dyes his hair, loves spray-tans and loves to dance. Get all worked-up, fellas.

anonymous 10/2/2022 11:46:23 PM

Spray-tan Brandon.

Owning the libs by going on the run from the law

anonymous 10/3/2022 2:06:49 AM

LOL- The party of law and order/"they should just comply if they did nothing wrong" doing mental gymnastics to justify this chodes actions and ideology. Yall are and have been a self serving party of manufacturered grievances and victimization that is eroding the social stability of the nation ALL while disingenuously claiming that your political opponents are doing what you're actually doing. This fascist tactic muddies the waters and blurs the lines of truth for average people and is a zero sum game that will end in all of us losing.

This post made me check out the band. Not bad.

Walk in... like walk in as in physically scaling the concrete balconies, smashing the windows of the building after spraying bear mace on police after pushing them down and thrusting a sharpened flag pole end Into their chest? And then run through the halls chanting hang mike pence while attempting to stop official certification of the presidential election? Is that what you mean by walking in to a government building?

anonymous 10/3/2022 3:20:51 PM

Thanks for the update, Lamb. I actually used the infor reported from day 1 to submit a report to the FBI and claimed $5000 for revealing his name and whereabouts. I'll have to send a new email to my contact with the updated address. f*ck this Trump dock rider and his band sucks.

this dude is the biggest soy cuck i have ever witnessed on the internet. roleplay's as a retard marine, despite playing in a shit tier f-class butt metal band, then cries on facebook forums like he's a civil war general, despite playing house of blues circuits for 20 plus years, i dunno, hopefully he winds up getting Waco'd, i feel like this would be the best result for him and his family. if this is truly what a "patriot" is, i don't want a single f*cking thing to do with it, because he's a bitch on paper and a whiney cry bitch in life with a 5th rate dimebag goatee, minus the riffs and a being a cool dude. what a homo

anonymous 10/4/2022 2:29:23 AM

Lol at the clown shitting on Joe Biden. The f*cked up thing is that this old man who lost his marbles is STILL more fit for office than trump ever was or will be. Honestly a crack addict would be more fit for presidency then the orangeangutan

It's not about politics, it's about sticking with your beliefs. If he believed enough to attend the rally and to enter the buildings, he should stick with his beliefs enough to be a man and face the consequences. If he was a true believer, he'd stand up and be held accountable. Since he's "on the run" and hiding out like a weasel, this is less about left/right or Rep/Dem, and more about another weekend warrior hypocrite afraid to face the music...

How is someone charged with carrying a deadly weapon, and that weapon is classified as non-lethal. Bear spray itself is less potent than pepper spray used for people...
