Former Lynyrd Skynyrd drummer Artimus Pyle has been arrested a second time after failing to properly register as a sex offender, sheriff's officials said.

The 59-year-old musician, whose real name is Thomas Delmer Pyle, was arrested Tuesday at one of three addresses he gave to authorities, Sgt. Chuck Mulligan said. He was being held Wednesday on $50,000 bond, Mulligan told The Florida Times-Union. Jail records do not show whether he had a lawyer.

Years ago, his then-wife got pissed because Skynyrd wasn't making any money and he couldn't afford the "rock'n roll" lifestyle anymore. So, she accused Artimus of molesting their children. She and her new boyfriend had an expensive cocaine habit to support as well.Even though his kids from a previous marriage said nothing had ever happened to them, and the evidence against him was based on heresay, the State's Attorney decided to prosecute. In Florida, there is no statute of limitations on child molestation. He agreed to a plea deal because he couldn't afford to take the case to trail. Because of the guilty plea and the subsequent conviction, state law required him to register as a sex offender, which he did not do.

Skynard always sucked....apparently in more than music. What's the attraction to diapers?

"Jail records do not show if he had a lawyer". Sounds like typical Southern Justice to me. Does anyone know what exactly it is that he supposedly did, or is this just mullet-bashing time on Huffpost? Is he a demonic baby raper or was he just skinny dipping at the swimming hole? Let's get the real story here, not just some press release from the cast of "In the Heat of the Night"...

Never cared much for those southern scumbags or their fans. Neil Young was right!
