In Too Deep
How do you respond when you’re young — barely 17 or 18 — and you’re ripped — on Ecstasy and coke — and you’re kissed on the open lips by a rock idol with whom you’re infatuated?
That’s one of the scenarios laid out in the new autobiography Walking Disaster: My Life Through Heaven and Hell. The author is Deryck Whibley from the rock band Sum 41 and he maintains in the book that his friend and manager, Greig Nori, who also played with the Canadian punk band Treble Charger, groomed and sexually assaulted him.
The publication of the book has stirred a deep round of charges and counter charges. Noiri has now claimed that Whibley initiated the relationship, an assertion Whibley disputes. “It has come to my attention that Greig Nori has now called me a liar,” Whibley said. “I tell you right now, I stand behind every word that’s in my book, 100 percent. I am not a liar.” Here’s more from Jamie Dlux.
