CHARLOTTE, NC: According to County jail records, Karl Logan was arrested Aug. 9th on 6 counts of third-degree sexual exploitation of a child. That charge involves possessing material showing a minor engaged in sexual activities.
Manowar acknowledged the charges on Oct. 26th, when they issued a statement from management company Magic Circle Entertainment. The statement detailed Karl Logan will not perform “due to the fact that Karl and his attorneys are dealing with these issues.”
Arrest warrants revealed Logan was in possession of several videos which depicted girls between the ages of 4 and 12-years-old engaged in a variety of sexual acts with unidentified men.
From all the reports obtained, none included any comments from Logan’s attorneys.

The guitarist was released on $35,000 bail.
