Wes Scantlin, frontman of Puddle of Mudd, insists that his legal troubles are exaggerated by the media. Over the years, he has faced numerous arrests, including felony domestic violence and various misdemeanors. Scantlin attributes his troubles to being a high-profile figure, likening himself to a trophy that law enforcement often showcases. He expresses a desire to avoid trouble and acknowledges mistakes but believes his actions are often misinterpreted. He also reflects on the frequent changes in his band lineup, hoping for stability with the current members.
[My] main goal [is] just [to] stay out of trouble... I really just don't do that much wrong things. I'm like a big fish in the little pond.
I've made some mistakes, but at certain points I could breathe in the wrong direction and get cuffed and slammed in a dungeon. It's weird.
Somebody's gotta go down, and they usually pick me, 'cause I'm the trophy. But my motto is turn around and run as fast as you can and just run.
I wonder how many times they've explained that they arrested me at their Christmas dinner, at Christmas day. I'm just a big, huge trophy.
