      He does seem to be a complete fraud. He claimed to have been in prison with the Krays but he was only 9 years old when they were in the prison he was claiming. He also claimed to have been found not guilty in 19 seperate trials that the media did not report on at all and for which there doesnt seem to be any court records or witnesses. This man seems to have been a fantasist.
