Baltus himself has now commented directly on the story, clarifying that he was not targeting Amerikan Overdose. He stated:
“My post was not directed towards anyone in particular especially Amerikan Overdose. I’m very sorry for the misunderstanding as this was a general statement about gofundme, not about AOD. I have and never have had problems with this band or any of their members. Unfortunately this has been blown out of proportion and I hope that it blows over sooner than later.

I’m sorry to those I have offended, I never meant it to be a personal attack. That is not what it was. “
