Peacemaker FL part ways with guitarist Joseph Schultz

Regarding the situation of their former guitarist Joseph Schultz, Peacemaker FL has released a statement, as reported by theprp. The 24-year-old musician, who was formerly a member of Tactosa, was arrested on October 17, 2025, on multiple counts of “possession of a sexual performance by a child enhanced” and “possession of pornography involving animals.” Twenty offenses of this type are listed in his inmate ID record, which is accessible on the Volusia County, Florida Division of Corrections website. Fifteen of the charges are linked to children, and five are related to animals. As these accusations started to circulate on Reddit and other platforms, Peacemaker FL provided this in a statement posted on November 25.

Joseph Schultz is no longer a part of Peacemaker. We removed him from the lineup 2 months ago, before the recent reports surfaced. Peacemaker has always stood firmly against the kind of vile behavior now being alleged. Our music has never shied away from calling it out, we write about confronting and destroying it in our lyrics, and that’s woven into who we are. Our principles aren’t changing and our stance on this is permanent. We are focusing on what’s ahead and gearing up for a massive 2026. See you soon.

In 2023, Tactosa disbanded due to unsettling accusations made against Kyle Weeden, the band’s vocalist at the time.
