As some of you might already know or might have heard, Ben Dewalt of the project Terrorfakt, one of my good friends and colleagues has been under an extremely nasty and unjustified attack and harassment campaign by Rachel Haywire of “Experiment Haywire”. She has been posting all over the Internet for quite some time with lies and extremely slanderous and false accusations claiming that Terrorfakt is a nazi/white power band and that Ben is a “Neo-Nazi”. There are a few folks out there that have taken her insane and ridiculous lies hook, line and sinker, without actually knowing or learning anything about Ben or Terrorfakt.
As a Hispanic and someone that has worked with Ben both in the studio and on the field for some 6 years now, you should ALL KNOW that nothing could be further from the truth. I’m making a public statement on this to educate any and all listeners and followers of my own music that might actually believe what that disturbed individual is saying. What most folks don’t know or realize, not that it really made any importance back then but clearly does now, is that during the US Manufactura / Terrorfakt tour in 2004 not only were there various members of our bands from various nationalities and races but various religious backgrounds as well. Our own road crew, security and merch personnel included Jewish members. I being Hispanic, along with long time collaborator Dre Robinson who is African American have performed numerous times with Ben as Terrorfakt. Ben himself has performed as a member of Manufactura on multiple occasions. We have performed and played for a wide variety of multicultural audiences through out North America including Mexico.
As Ben is a very direct and forward person that says what he means and doesn’t like to deal with unnecessary bullshit from anyone it is clear to me that the real issue “Rachel Haywire” has is a personal one, clearly she is a prime example of not taking rejection well. Her accusations have no merit whatsoever and in fact are erroneous and I believe abusive harassment, slander, libel and defamation. Ben has stated that he will be seeking legal action to stop this once and for all. I for one I’m 100% in support of this and I urge all of you to be extremely weary about any of her future statements or comments regarding this matter.
