A man who was sexually abused by Celtic Boys Club beast Jim Torbett is to release a book later this month. Gordon Woods, 69, has spoken ahead of the launch of his tell-all book 'Being put through Hoops', which he hopes will inspire other child abuse victims to come forward.
The sex abuse survivor started writing the book in 2020 after he was encouraged to document his thoughts by former Daily Record journalist Keith McLeod, but was forced to put it on hold during his court case against the Celtic Boys Club founder.
Torbett was convicted of abusing Gordon at the High Court in Inverness earlier this year on April 25 after a jury heard how the beast sexually assaulted him up to 40 times between 1967 and 1968 in various locations including the paedophile's flat, his car and in the back of a toy shop in Glasgow.
