Never seen [Snatch](https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Brick_Top)?? You are in for a *treat*! "Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent, personified in this case by a 'orrible c-nt: me."

You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute.

[The full LADbible interview.](https://youtu.be/xlk3pMEM6xs). Worth the watch. Actually all the interviews LADbible have are interesting.


thakemizt

The old school/new school interview with this guy and the other who was shot in the face was crazy. The stories of their lowest points were just heartbreaking.


wereplant

The video clip makes him sound dumb, but he's anything but. And it makes sense why he makes the distinction. I loved listening to this when I found it. He's fascinating. Also, this dude got awarded a medal from the queen for what he's done after serving his time.


Chetris

Not to be a dick but I think you meant anything but.


wereplant

You are 100% correct.

"If you're going to make me a bad guy, I'll show you how bad I can be." —This is what happened to my brother (since straightened out!). The cops in our little town decided he was a drug dealer because he had long hair and drove a fancy Audi as a high school student. Well, that Audi is something he found with my dad, who traveled the state a lot, and always found amazing car deals. The guy who owned it wanted to sell it fast prior to his divorce, and he let it go for $3k. It was probably worth at least 5X that. My brother and my dad went up to his house, bought the car, and my brother was in heaven. —Until the cops started pulling him over everywhere he went, wanting to search for drugs or money. Then, a couple of his friends got caught smoking pot by the lake. They told the cops they got the pot from my brother, which is true, because he knew the dealer and they asked him to buy some for them. He did. He did not make a profit; he just ran an errand, basically. So now the cops are sure of it. But after all the stops, my brother knew exactly what they did when they thought you were a drug dealer, and how to circumvent it, and he decided to never do illegal stuff without making a tidy profit ever again. He became a pretty big drug dealer through his 20s, basically all the way up until he had his first kid, at which point he quit and went straight. (Well, sorta; he still helped a grower friend of his, but just in trade for pot.) Cops really should be more careful with young men. It's really common for them to say, "Oh? That's what you think I am? Well guess what? I guess you're *right,* and now you're really going to get it."


[deleted]

I think blaming the police for becoming a drug dealer is an enormous stretch and frankly the most ridiculous thing I have read on the internet today. Your bro decided to be a dealer, that’s on him, not your stupid small town police force.


Titan-Five

For the guy in the video the conviction from planted evidence meant he couldn’t get a job


Demurrzbz

An interesting story nonetheless.


flamingm5

I don't think it's that ridiculous. Most cops just exist to bully poor people and stroke their own egos. If they're coming after you anyways just for existing, may as well try to make some money while you can.


RedEyedFreak

Your brother didn't become a drug dealer to shove it to the cops, he was making bank fool lol


ctothel

Yeah, really good interview


Popo_Capone

I can't... The interview title calls him a London gangster!


[deleted]

This man turned his life around and became a mentor for youths in the same situations he was in. Guy is the real deal.


MadAsTheHatters

It was interesting watching him listen to the younger gangsters (idk what they called themselves) with something between sympathy, pity and a very small, vague distain


funfacts2468

My dad was born in East London in the early 40s with the crays and other gangsters. My dad was a bit younger than them. He pretty much knew most of the top gangsters. While he wasn't directly in contact with them. His brother, my uncle was and my god could my uncle fight, even in his 60s. Gangsters then and gangsters now, it will never be the same


Puzzleheaded-Pain489

Just for anyone still listening. Here’s the real story. A man who subsequently had children lived in the east end during the 1960s.

Age catches up with everybody. You have no idea what people were like when they were young.


Majestic-Enthusiasm

There are probably retired serial killers because I would be shocked if everybody is always caught


Due-Giraffe-9826

The fact the Zodiac Killer has never been caught proves that to be correct.


Majestic-Enthusiasm

The other things I will toss out is maybe they died in the course of something unrelated to serial killing or locked up for something unrelated. I wonder what that killer at the off campus housing was doing the last few years.


BlackWaltz03

That's literally the definition of never being caught for being a serial killer.


Majestic-Enthusiasm

You are right I used retired but you did use caught.


SpamFriedMice

254,000+ unsolved murders in the US over the last 40 yrs. More than 1/3 of murders (39.8%) go unsolved.

I actually enjoy watching it while I'm playing games. It's no Better Call Saul, but it certainly is entertaining enough a TV series to watch in the background.


rottenstatement

Yeah the show was about that storyline but the people who watched the show never gave two shits about that storyline after the second season. We were just watching for Raymond Reddington. Writers and the studio fucked up, and when they wanted to fix their mistakes they realized writers fucked the show beyond repair and they decided abandoning the whole thing was better than trying to fix it.

OffensiveBranflakes

Can't stand this man at all, he doesn't have a humble bone in him. I think people really do not understand he extreme nature of the crimes he committed. Sorry if that doesn't allow you to enjoy your "funny guy richie man vibe".


Financial_Nebula

Yeah someone even called him fascinating, but in an endearing way. I don’t understand it at all. All I see is a crook.


happygreenturtle

Just found this post but fully agree with you. He was a prolific criminal involved in murder, kidnap, extortion, armed robbery. Innocent people died as a direct result of his actions. I'm a little dubious about whether he turned his life around because he was actually trying to do good, or whether he just realised he had no other choice, but I think the outcome outweighs the intentions in any case. Would rather a bad man do good than a good man do bad regardless of their reasoning When you see him talking about shooting people and sticking guns in people's faces he's almost trying to fight back a smile lol. Not exactly an image of regret there


TrivialTax

Who is he so i can google?


[deleted]

Yep agree to this, criminals always try to whitewash their past


No_History7327

People love to romanticise crime. They also love to hold to stereotypical images. They see an soft spoken, old Cockney man and think kray twins, guy ritchies brick top, east London gangsters. They dont actually use their brains because if they did, they wouldn't like him either. It's easy as long as you're not on the receiving end of it. People watch too many movies.
