Audio After The Jump
The saga of Creed singer Scott Stapp would be hard to believe if it were a movie, but it's all real and getting more bizarre by the minute.
As we previously reported, Scott believes that his problems with the Internal Revenue Service are being caused because he criticized President Obama.
"In 2012 I was doing a promotional tour for my book Sinner's Creed and I went on Fox News," Stapp said on KISS 92.5's Roz and Mocha Show in November. "I expressed a little concern and disappointment with President Obama. Withing two months of that public statement, that's when the IRS began to freeze my accounts. I believe that the IRS situation is definitely the result of me expressing my dissatisfaction with President Obama. Absolutely... one hundred percent."
He was placed on an involuntary 72-hour psychiatric hold on November 13. At the time officers with the Madison County Florida Sheriff's Department found him on the side of the road. He appeared to be wasted and insisted that someone was trying to poison him.
Scott and Jaclyn Stapp
He now believes he's a CIA agent out to kill Obama, according to a 911 call just placed by his wife, Jaclyn.
During the call Jaclyn said that Scott was riding around on a bike without a shirt with CIA documents he found online in his back pocket.
"He thinks he's part of the CIA. He thinks they're trying to kill him," Jaclyn and Scott's sister-in-law tell the 911 operator. "He has a bunch of paperwork in his backpack that he's a CIA agent and he was supposed to assassinate Obama."
TMZ reports that Scott made his own 911 call blaming his estranged wife for stealing his truck, which is why he was riding a bike.
When police found Scott he told then that Jaclyn had stolen $6 million from him. After speaking with the singer the cops determined he was stable enough to not be placed on psychiatric hold.
This story is far from over. We'll keep you updated.
