On March 26, 2018, the band was dropped from Season of Mist, from a tour with Satyricon , and from that year’s Maryland Deathfest as former allegations of possession of child pornography from 2008 were brought up against Dagon. As revealed to be in the public record by metal news website MetalSucks , Dagon pleaded guilty to Unlawful Display of Sexually Explicit Material and Obstructing a Law Enforcement Officer in a plea bargain after the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children detected an account uploading sexually explicit photographs of “young females in their early teens or pre-teens” to the photo-sharing website Photobucket in November 2006, the account being traced to Dagon. A subsequent investigation of his computer revealed as many as 2,000 files recovered depicting Inquisition, Dagon and his wife, and more child pornography, involving both young girls and boys. Enough of the latter category existed to fill four DVDs with images and videos. The charges did not require him to register on the Washington Sex Offender Public Registry.
