According to a report from TMZ, Five Finger Death Punch vocalist Ivan Moody was recently arrested in Las Vegas for domestic violence towards his wife, Holly Smith.
The subsequent divorce papers that followed the arrest detail a quite unsettling scene. As TMZ reports, Smith had accused Moody of infidelity while the two were staying at a hotel in Las Vegas. Once she had eventually gone to bed, however, she was awoken by Moody embracing her in a chokehold, which he allegedly followed by punching her several times and attempting to strangle her with a blanket.

Along with the couple’s divorce papers, TMZ claims to have obtained photos of Smith’s injuries, which include a bloody eye and burst blood vessels.
Smith is reportedly looking for monetary compensation from Moody, who claims he earns around $66,000 monthly. As Loudwire reports, that tallies to roughly $792,000 per year.
