Guns N' Roses Leaker Sentenced
15 July 2009A Los Angeles blogger who leaked new Guns N' Roses songs on the Internet before their official release on the band's first new album in 17 years, was sentenced to two months of home confinement on Tuesday.
Kevin Cogill also received one year's probation and must appear in an anti-piracy commercial under the terms of his plea deal with federal prosecutors. He pleaded guilty last December to a single misdemeanor count of violating federal copyright laws, and agreed to help authorities identify the original source of the leak.
Cogill posted nine tracks from the Guns N' Roses album 'Chinese Democracy' onto the Web site antiquiet.comВ five months before the CD came out last November.
