Even the men were afraid of him, as outlined in the book. Again, I firmly believe the combination of drugs and alcohol played a part in this. While Lindsey has stated he wasn't under the power of drugs the way the others were, I'd have to disagree. The effects they had on him were every bit as savage, maybe more so, than on the others. He didn't even remember it.

I agree with you. I can also vaguely remember reading where Stevie mentioned that the words they said to each other during their split was more painful than the physical fights they had. She said something along those lines. While I don't think their physical incidents were as sereve as CAH reports, there definitely seemed to be some form of physical abuse in their relationship as well. Whether it was Stevie hitting him first or Lindsey pushing her etc.
