Prosecutors drop charges against 4 members of Polish band
SPOKANE, Wash. — Rape and kidnapping charges against all four members of a Polish death metal band were dropped Friday by prosecutors in Washington state.
The band members have been detained in the United States since a woman claimed that she was gang-raped after a concert last year in Spokane, Washington.
Prosecutors filed a motion in Spokane County Superior Court dismissing the charges against members of Decapitated, citing only the “well-being of the victim,” as the reason.
A trial for the four men had been scheduled for Jan. 16.
