I guess hurting and embarrassing your wife and kids is no big deal. He did nothing wrong…
Time for a sermon Pastor Ellefson.
Ironically, KK doesn’t want him in his band.
You're kinda taking it out of context. He's explaining that he did nothing illegal and not talking about his private life. I'm sure he's in the doghouse and rightfully so. I still say the whole thing is blown way out of proportion, and really nobody's business. His wife should probably leave him, but that's also between them and not the rest of humanity.

It is ironic and funny to me... Reap what ya sow!
People throw all their business out on the street, so to speak, through social media and such. Then moan, groan, gripe, complain, and cry when it comes back to bite em in the @$$. It is all or nothing when you go down that road. (IMHDO) The Genie can't be put back in the bottle.

I don’t think he’s even sorry for disrespecting and hurting his family. His original statement said he had a consensual relationship with the young woman. No mention of how it embarrassed and hurt his wife and kids. He should have from the get go apologized to his family. He’s a selfish person. Not to mention his religious hypocrisy. Walking around as a “pastor” and then secretly doing shit like that! He’s actually the exact thing that so many metal bands have railed against. Ellefson is like the Metal version of Jimmy Swaggart.

If junior was a single non-married musician, whatever… but the problem I have with him is his disrespect to his family and religious hypocrisy as a “pastor”. Don’t preach God and then go wank yourself on camera. How stupid can he be? Almost every celebrity that has a sex tape gets revealed to the public! He is literally a jerkoff.
If I was a well known musician, I’d probably be like Jason Newsted. He successfully keeps out of the public eye.
I’m not saying that Ellefson shouldn’t be forgiven… I just think he should be more classy and publicly apologize to his family.

Well this pastor thing your stuck on doesn't really matter to me. He even brings it up in that article. He studied for a year to become a pastor. They said in I order for him to continue he'd have to quit Megadeth. He chose to stay with Megadeth. That was ten years ago, and he even goes on to say this whole image of him being holy and shit is taken out of proportion, or something like that.
I'm not saying what he did is right or wrong. I will say it's terrible and wrong though. I'd never have done that to my wife, and I wouldn't stand by and say nothing if I found out a friend was doing that to their wife. I once was best man for a buddy of mine. He wanted me to take him to an ex girlfriends house so he could get laid one last time. I told him to go to hell basically. All that being said, you don't know what's going on behind closed doors between him and his wife. Yeah maybe he should make some big public apology to her. Maybe she told him not to. Maybe she just wants it to all go away. Maybe her lawyer is drawing up the divorce papers as we argue over this and he's been silenced by his lawyers.
Who knows, maybe she was involved with it and doesn't want that out there. Rock star life is crazy and abnormal, just look at all the crap Sharon has taken from Ozzy. He admits to banging groupies left and right, she knows all about it. That's a hell of a lot worse than beating off in front of a camera online. Either way, it is what it is. He's done with Megadeth, and in a month nobody will care about what he did except his wife.

Yep… who knows. I just think he did a really stupid thing. His career is basically over. He’s been demoted to the minor leagues in that current shit band he’s in called Lucid.

If Megadeth made a biopic movie, I think Dana Carvey (Garth from Wayne’s World) would be the perfect guy to play Ellefson.
