      Rubbish ! The Richardson’s were far more powerful than the Krays . Only reason you heard about Krays was they couldn’t stay out of photo lens and courted publicity . Richardson’s owe nothing to the Krays . Charlie Richardson was a millionaire by time he was 25 . Krays were small time in comparison
