Sadus have parted ways with co-founding drummer Jon Allen following serious abuse allegations. A woman identifying herself as Allen's significant other recently went public with claims of physical abuse, sharing disturbing footage and images of injuries she reportedly sustained while undergoing dialysis treatment.
The allegations surfaced shortly before Sadus' ongoing overseas tour with Obituary. Devin Riche of Anubis has supported the woman by compiling and sharing evidence of the alleged abuse, while the victim has also taken to social media to detail her experiences.
