Dr. Daniel Baldi has been officially charged with involuntary manslaughter in the deaths of eight people, including Slipknot bassist Paul Gray.
Baldi, who is also facing suspension of his medical licence due to administrative charges from the Iowa Board of Medicine, is accused of prescribing irresponsibly high doses of prescription painkillers to his patients. Gray died of an accidental overdose in June of 2010.
The doctor could face up to 16 years in jail if convicted.
“None of it is going to bring back our brother Paul,” Slipknot’s Shawn “Clown” Crahan told the Des Moines Register, adding, “Hopefully justice will be served.”
Slipknot are scheduled to make an official statement later today.

"I shouldn't be doing this, but I'm going to anyway just because. Oh shit, I died from too much. It's your fault."
Wouldn't you know after taking it for a while that it's overwhelming? You wouldn't question the dosage? Did he die the first time using it?
I have a hard time believing that musicians who are granted access to drugs use just the right amount as it is. And it's not like he was out to destroy Slipknot so people who act like he should be put to death need to shut the fuck up.
I think something similar happened with Micheal Jackson....? Or am I remembering the story wrong? Because his doctor fried too, if I remember correctly.
Paul should have had more common sense. No one else should pay for some drug addicted scums poor decisions.
