Linkin Park's Chester Bennington faced 'hour-by-hour' addiction battle before suicide aged 41, harrowing new book reveals
Linkin Park star Chester Bennington faced an 'hour-by-hour' battle with addiction in his final months before his suicide aged 41 in 2017, a new book has revealed.
'He was describing an hour-by-hour battle with addiction,” said Ryan Shuck, Chester’s close friend who had helped turn one of his bleakest periods during the 2000s into the lone Dead by Sunrise album and who had been texting with him about his alcoholism in the weeks leading up to his death.' The book continues: 'When an autopsy and toxicology report later confirmed that Chester had a trace amount of alcohol in his system at the time of his death — he had been discovered with an empty bottle of Stella Artois in the room as well as a glass of Corona that was less than half full — Talinda was not surprised. But the news sparked backlash, with Chester's son Jaime calling out Emily's ties with Scientology, and past support of actor Danny Masterson, while his mother Susan Eubanks accused the band of reneging on their promise to let her know if they planned to reunite.
