“I call it the perfect storm,” Dru told the Daily Mail last week. “Every day, more and more articles were published. Obviously, I am his mother. I would never say that Armie did everything right, because he didn’t. Morally, he was wrong. But I do know my son was not out eating people. That I know. And Armie did not rape anybody. I knew that he was not morally right, but that was insanity.” Her book, Hammered, was released on July 30.
