World Heavyweight Boxing Champion 1948, was murdered
in Soho in 1965, the killer was never found!
There was a TV programme about this last night which has
prompted me to put it here, there was lots of speculation as
to who killed him, even the Mafia was in the frame, but we
still don't know.
I liked Freddie, though I never met him, he was a friendly man,
and it came across in interviews.
I was surprised, when looking for a link to his story, to learn that
he was suspected of killing eight women, I had never heard of that
till today, I had heard that he was suspected of being gay, that was
disproved, but not I had not heard of any killing.
Here is a link to the Guardian story about it all.
