Leviathan is a Californian black metal band formed in 1998 by Wrest (Jef Whitehead). In Leviathan, Wrest records and plays all instruments including vocals entirely on his own. Additionally, Wrest has collaborated with the band Sunn O))), and is an active member of the U.S. black metal supergroup Twilight.
A tattoo artist raped his girlfriend using tattoo tools above a near West Side tattoo parlor, authorities allege.
Jef Whitehead, 42, allegedly choked and beat his 26-year-old girlfriend unconscious by banging her head against a wall above Taylor Street Tattoo and Piercing, 1150 W. Taylor, in the early hours of Saturday morning.
He also attacked her with a pair of scissors, it’s alleged.
When she regained consciousness she discovered she had been sexually assaulted with the tattoo tools, Assistant Cook County State’s Attorney Tom McGuire said.
Whitehead then allegedly knocked her out again, McGuire said. When the victim woke up she was in the street outside the parlor, he added.
A heavily-bearded and tattooed Whitehead was dressed all in black as he appeared before Judge Israel Desierto Sunday morning.
Wearing a hooded sweater with the words “stop the madness” printed on it, he was ordered held on bail of $350,000.
Whitehead is from California but he and his girlfriend had recently arrived in Chicago and were considering making it their permanent home, McGuire said.
Lol they put "stop the madness" but it's supposed to be this...
