“I am part of Deathpact and I was the masked person who appeared in a video circulating on the internet from the show in Phoenix last weekend,” the statement began. “I am incredibly sorry to her for what happened.”
Deathpact explained that while attempting to greet as many fans as possible, they inadvertently touched the fan in a way that was inappropriate. “In hurrying to meet and greet as many fans as possible, I wasn’t careful enough and clearly touched her in a way that I shouldn’t have – and did not intend to,” the statement continued. “I promise you, it was not intentional. My intention was to give her a friendly shoulder tap. I missed her shoulder.”
The artist emphasized that their actions do not reflect their values or the ethos of the Deathpact project. “My wife, my family, and team were right there with me in that moment. As soon as I became aware of what happened, I apologized to her and her partner that same evening, in person. This is not in any way – and never has been – what we as a project or I as an individual stand for. I am sickened that I failed her, our community, my team, and my family.”
Deathpact also acknowledged a misstep in their initial response to the situation earlier this week. “Earlier this week while trying to address the situation as quickly as possible, we missed the mark in trying to explain what happened. My responsibility isn’t just about what I meant to do, it’s about the impact of my actions on others. Period.”
Moving forward, Deathpact announced changes to the way they will engage with fans. “Going forward, we are changing how we engage with our community to ensure that personal space is respected so that something like this never happens again.”
The apology comes in response to a video that circulated online, capturing the incident at the Phoenix show.
