Dude who leaked new Guns N’ Roses wants you to donate to his Paypal account

By now you’ve heard about poor jailed blogger Kevin Cogill, 27, who leaked 9 new Guns N’ Roses tracks online and was promptly JAILED by the FBI. If convicted, he faces a possible five-year prison sentence and a $250,000 fine.

This is called “being made an example of.” We knew this day would come— we just thought the big bad band in question would be Metallica.

Anyway, according to Starpulse, Cogill has set up a Paypal account for the public to contribute to his legal defense. He’s even made plans to auction off his Les Paul guitar. :(

A Cogill quote from the article:

“(This) has definitely been by far the biggest expense I have ever faced in my entire life. My resources are very limited while formidable costs shall continue to pile up. It’s beyond daunting, being a single independent citizen facing a full-force prosecution by the most powerful government in the world.”

Suuuucks.

So are you guys gonna contribute? Will you bid a couple bucks on dude’s guitar? Or do you think blogger-guy deserves jail time for distributing GNR tunes, when they clearly have no place in this decade??
