Scott Stapp, lead singer of the band Creed, is having a mental breakdown after his family reported that he said he was supposed to kill President Obama.
From the NY Daily News:
“Trouble Creed front man Scott Stapp believes he is a CIA agent tasked with killing President Obama, his panicked family told a 911 dispatcher.
Just after he returned home froma 72-hour psych hold in Florida, the rocker fled his house, prompting his wife and sister-in-law to call cops and beg for another commitment, according to newly released 911 tapes obtained by TMZ.
Jaclyn Stapp, Scott’s estranged wife, and her sister called police and explained the singer threatened to kill the President.”
Apparently Stapp has been in and out of mental institutions approximately ten times. After his threat against the president, he fled shirtless on a bike and backpack full of tools and documents he downloaded online.
Earlier this month his son pleaded with him to get sober, saying: “My dad is too busy posting songs on his FB hiding out for attention rather then getting his act together #dadstop,” his son tweeted. “To all tho confused, my father once again chose drugs over his family. He needs help, but refuses to get it. He’s been on a 9 week binge.”
