Dave Holland (drummer)

Dave Holland (born David Holland, 5 April 1948, Wolverhampton, West Midlands) is an English rock drummer, best remembered for his stints with Trapeze from 1969 to 1979 and Judas Priest from 1979 to 1989. He served time in prison for attempted rape of a 17-year-old boy. A jury found Holland guilty of one charge of attempted rape and five counts of indecent assault of a teenage boy taking drum lessons at Holland's house. Holland, however, maintains that he is innocent and that the relationship with his pupil was not sexual.
