He managed to duck out of a few charges in the 1980’s, including an attempted $1 million-a-week bookmaking operation take-over, due to lack of evidence. Finally his luck ran out in 1996 when he was sentenced to just under 2 years for fraud and conspiracy.
He died in Palm Springs at the grand age of 86, in 2011.
