Report: KORN Singer Sued Over Crime Museum

June 24, 2004

Reuters reports: KORN singer Jonathan Davis has been sued by a former business associate for breach of contract after announcing plans for a museum of American serial killers to be promoted by a show featuring bikini-clad women.

Arthur Rosenblatt, a collector of criminal artefacts, sued Davis, a former mortuary science student, and his associates, for about $4 million in a 12-count lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday, related to a failed attempt to open a museum, according to court papers obtained by Reuters on Wednesday.

In the suit, Rosenblatt said Davis approached him in June 2001 about his collection of "Americana", which included a Volkswagen once owned by serial killer Ted Bundy.

Rosenblatt told Davis of his plan to open a museum of artefacts related to the criminal justice system and Davis said he wanted to participate, offering $250,000 to fund the museum, which Rosenblatt suggested be named the "Museum of Justice & Odditorium" or "Mojo Museum", according to court papers.
