Weezer Bassist Jillian Shriner Files Divorce Amid Ongoing Legal Issues Following Arrest

EAGLE ROCK, CA – The family of Weezer bassist Scott Shriner is navigating complex circumstances after his wife, Jillian Lauren (Shriner), filed for divorce nearly eight months following a shooting incident with Los Angeles police.

Court documents submitted Tuesday list “irreconcilable differences” as the sole stated reason for the dissolution, according to reports. The couple married in 2005 and are parents to two adopted children aged 17 and 13 respectively. Records indicate Lauren is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their children along with spousal support arrangements.

The divorce filing comes after significant events that led to increased public attention, including an April encounter where she was wounded by police during what authorities described as a targeted discharge of her weapon against officers. That incident occurred while police were searching their neighborhood for three suspects involved in a hit-and-run reported earlier that month.

While not commenting on the specific nature of their differences beyond court documents, legal summaries reference ongoing developments stemming from the initial April 9th incident which resulted in two felony gun charges being filed against Lauren after she allegedly ignored commands to drop her weapon before surrendering at home with a shoulder wound requiring hospital treatment.
