Randy Blythe Trial Resumes

Following last month’s postponement due to the illness of a key witness for the defense, Randy Blythe has now returned to the Czech Republic to complete his trial for manslaughter. The Lamb of God vocalist posted the above photo on his Instagram account, along with the following message:

“Earlier today I walked across the Legion Bridge to see the Memorial to the Victims of Communism. It is a series of male statues going up a forested hill, each statue appearing to dissolve a bit more until only a single foot is left. It’s an amazing memorial. I climbed up the stairs and looked back towards the Vltava river and Staré Mesto (‘Old Town’ in Czech). This shot pretty much shows how I’ve been feeling for a whole now- torn in half, stuck in between two worlds, neither here nor there, waiting and watching for an answer to come, so that I can move forward again as a whole man. What direction I will move in, I do not know yet. Regardless, I am ready for the waiting to be over. I will move forward no matter what, and I will not be split in two anymore, no matter where I wind up. This is frustrating for me, but I am slowly learning to be a patient man. Life just happens. Deal with it.”

Since the trial was originally scheduled to last five days but was postponed after three, it seems reasonable to assume that it will, indeed, finally conclude this week. If you ask me, Blythe continues to be, well… pretty incredible about this whole ordeal. For his sake, we’re ready for the waiting to be over, too.
