Detectives from the LA County Sheriff’s Department reportedly want to work out if any crimes committed “fall under their jurisdiction” and if it “warrants further investigation”.
The purported meeting was as a result of the wave of allegations made against the musician by his exes, the outlet reported.
The FBI was reportedly the first agency to get complaints against Manson and passed on some of the information to LA cops.
It is not known if the FBI will get involved in investigating any of the new allegations against the 52-year-old.

Actress Evan Rachel Wood was the first woman to come forward, claiming her ex-fiance “horrifically abused her for years.”
She alleged: “The name of my abuser is Brian Warner, also known to the world as Marilyn Manson.
“He started grooming me when I was a teenager and horrifically abused me for years.
“I was brainwashed and manipulated into submission. I am done living in fear of retaliation, slander, or blackmail.”

She went on: “I am here to expose this dangerous man and call out the many industries that have enabled him, before he ruins any more lives.
“I stand with the many victims who will no longer be silent.”
Evan and Marilyn, who is 19 years her senior, began dating in 2007.
The two then got engaged in 2010, but ended it seven months later.
GoT star Esme Bianco also accused him of severe domestic abuse[/caption]
She had met Marilyn when she was just 18 years old and he was 36 and married to Dita Von Teese.
Other women, including Game of Thrones actress Esme Bianco, have also accused him of severe domestic abuse.
Bianco, who starred as Ros in the first three seasons of the show, began dating Manson in 2011, according to story published in New York magazine.
In 2009, she said he asked her to fly to LA to star in a music video with him, and play a “victim/lover” who would “have to pretend to like being manhandled.”
But, she claimed she “spent the next three days in lingerie, barely sleeping or eating, with Manson serving up cocaine rather than food.”
She alleged he lost his temper and threw the camera around, becoming “violent, tying her with cables to a prayer kneeler, lashing her with a whip, and using an electric sex toy called a Violet Wand on her wounds.”
Bianco alleged there was no discussion of safe words, but they began a long-distance affair until she moved in with him in West Hollywood in 2011.
During her time with the star, she alleged that he would often “bite her during sex without her consent, leaving her whole body bruised,” providing shocking photographs of her with whip marks on her body.
Manson posted a statement on his Instagram after more women accused him of abuse, vehemently denying the allegations.

He wrote: “Obviously, my art and my life have long been magnets for controversy, but these recent claims about me are horrible distortions of reality.
“My intimate relationships have always been entire consensual with like-minded partners.
“Regardless of how – and why – others are now choosing to misrepresent the past, that is the truth.”
The Sun has reached out to Manson’s lawyer and reps for comment.
