jovial dave is a celeb villain who got off a murder charge, sort of manages punk band the business, and used to be a baliff. he does speaking tours, books, dvds, and fronts shows about villains.

 

charming...

 

however, he's the sort of minor-leaguer who gets celeb crim fame in the uk. the point being, i guess, that the really good criminals are those that are never caught.

 

unlike mr gotti...

Killed himself just after watching Charlton pummel Reading 4-0. I would understand if he were a Reading fan, watching them right now is soul destroyingly bad, but he was supporting Charlton!

 

When I worked in a book shop many aeons ago, his books were immensely popular. I always got the feeling that no-one would admit to buying or owning a Courtney book, but they were the perfect books to read on holiday and then dispose of overseas. Somewhere on the Costa Brava must be a massive book depository of old Courtney tomes.
