Uncle Kracker Busted

Remember him? He sang "Follow Me" and was part of Kid Rock's drinking crew or something. I had a crush on him until he started looking like the FHA Bake Sale chaperone. He got busted early this morning on a sex offense.

Kid Rock's former DJ, who also had a double platinum selling album of his own a few years back, was arrested and charged with a second-degree forcible sex offense outside Raleigh, North Carolina this morning.

Uncle Kracker, aka 33-year-old Matthew Shafer, was busted by Raleigh police at an Embassy Suites hotel around 4:45 AM.


No details of what he allegedly did were available. But if it's 4 AM at a hotel motel Holiday Inn, it can't be pretty. He's currently being held on 5 million dollars bond, and will face the judge on Friday. Follow me...to jail! Ok, that was corny. Kid, come collect your rapist! Sorry - 5 mil means something bad went down.
