Rocco Roll, singer for KBD legends The Absentees, has been sentenced to 55 years to life in prison for the attempted murder of a police officer. You can read the whole story right here. Judging by the article, it sounds like Rocco isn’t really playing with a full deck these days. Seeing as how Rocco is currently 52 years old, unless he somehow manages to survive until he is over 100 years old, he’ll be spending the rest of his years on this planet behind bars.

I’ve never listened to the Absentees, so I can’t say I feel any particular way about this news.
But, this guy clearly has something weird going on and it’s a shame he couldn’t get help before something like this happened.
rocco was a real decent person,but went insane on meth.
