"Ronnie Kray" was a gangster in 1960s London, twin brother to Reggie Kray and a one man mob. With his brother, The Kray Twins were the foremost perpetrators of organised crime in the East End of London during the 1950s and 1960s. Ronald Kray was found guilty of the murder of George Cornell and sentenced to thirty years in prison. He was recertified insane and died in Broadmoor Hospital in March 1995 aged 61. |
"Reggie Kray" was a gangster in 1960s London, twin brother to Ronnie Kray. Known to be the more level-headed and less volatile twin one of the two, Reggie married Frances Shea in 1965 and killed Jack McVitie in 1967 and subsequently spent 33 years in prison for the murder. Reggie was released from prison on compassionate grounds in August 2000, eight and a half weeks before his death from bladder cancer, aged 66. |
