It is literally sexual assault. People stop acting like there were no laws broken. He assaulted dude by touching in his sleep. He demanded sexual favors as a superior.

This all makes me so sad. We have the day LeRoi passed. And we have yesterday. Damn

I'm glad the band released a statement and took a definitive step. I feel for the victims, and I also feel for Boyd. His sex addiction brought his whole world down.
