The police believe the murder weapon was Holmes’ Hammer😂
I don’t think you can kill someone with a rubber chicken which is what he had at that time
A mushroom shaped bruise was left on some foreheads i heard
Great episode guys, I've always wondered why there hasn't been a proper documentary or even a series on Eddie Nash, his story would make for a great series or movie.
Thank you!
Great topic my guy i was just thinking bout this guy a few months ago wondering why no one has covered the nash yet lol crazy story!!!
Nasrallah is an infamous name within the Palestinian expat community. I have to think Nash could have been providing information on his international connections.
That potential relationship with the intelligence community could've made Nash untouchable in SoCal.
If we look at the historical context,I think we can all agree that CIA protected sources have operated with impunity for generations. I believe Nash fits this mold perfectly,especially considering his true last name.
Agreed!!! Good observation & point here!!!!
Thank you.
Looking for Sirhan connection to Nash...
Yeah there's much more to this Story. Much more. Only way he got away with Wonderland case is good connections
And why not? Look at Epstein and Jean Luc Brunel.
Wonderland is a hell of a movie. Very underrated
This was a really good one....i didn't know much about this
Hey fellas, thanks for another great episode!
Thanks guys! Great show. You all should do a show about Flukey Stokes out of Chicago. Famous black gangster of Chicago. Back in the day
Right on!
Great show guys
Wonderland is an incredible movie
Hey, now! I just had the opportunity to listen to the upload on "The Nash." You guys killed this particular episode. I loved it, very entertaining.
Right on!! Thanks
Thank you for LA stuff! Scott should do an episode about Vinnie Ocean/Vincent Palermo or try to interview him.
Great job boys !!! Keep them coming , these 50 minute episodes are the best !!
Great episode guys. Always loved Wonderland, the performances are fantastic and its a great movie.
Van halen was the house band at the starwood
Great video. You guys need to co-ordinate the gain on your 2 microphones. Thanks for posting.
Great show guys. Someone we haven’t heard much about other than the Wonderland movie.
I believe the first time they tried to get in the back door someone else had locked it already. John holmes had to go back and unlock it again. Nash thought holmes' second visit was odd and that's why they immediately suspected it was holmes.
Christ imagine Holmes entering your back door....dios mío.
The “Three Legged Man” did it. 😂
😂😂😂
Really great show never heard of this guy. RIP to my Palestinian brother who passed last summer I would’ve sent this to him. Really interesting that Nash was more locked in than the dragna family. Thanks og Scott and og bucc
A great show !
Great Episode, all new for your subscribers from abroad.
Awesome, thank you!
If you get the Wonderland dvd, it has an extra feature that is the actual crime scene video. Like, the television is still on inside the house. Wild.
Yea i have the movie on DVD... & it is willlllllld to see!! Gruesome as Gruesome gets! 😳
The detective's on the case are walking throughout the house with a video camera recording everything for evidence... & it almost looks like a fake crime scene you'd see in a Horror, extreme Gore movie it's so bad.. 😳 blood all over the rooms, the furniture, walls.. on the ceilings.. 😳 It was insane for real!
I like the offshoot stories. Thanks.
Flukey Stokes would be a good episode... And the connections between black gangsters and the Chicago outfit also would be another good one
Great episode. A Hugh Hefner deep dive sounds fascinating.
Not Correct about his early life and career in los angeles. You Really Believe Eddie Nash was able to buy those nightclubs( he owned 8 in total ) by selling Hot dogs ? He made his ENTIRE Net worth selling, smuggling, buying, brokering Narcotics. Plain and simple. The laws were different in the 1960's and 1970's and everyone became MILLIONAIRES. Also, jail time was 10 years Maximum for big cases and you served 7 years Maximum unlike today it's LIFE IN PRISON
Yeah, i hate when im at a partyand people say "Kevin, pull out your shlong and we'll give you some yayo." It really makes me feel "lesser than"
LoL ya really
Launius never associated or worked with Nash. Neither party knew each other. The only connection was John Holmes, who was the go between. The Nash trials of 90 & 91 resulted from the testimony of Scott Thorson ( Liberace's Lover) Thorson was there right after the robbery had taken place. Thorson would testify he was at Nash's to pick up a pound of cocaine when he witnessed Greg Diles ( Nash's body guard) burst through the front door with Holmes by the back of the neck... At some point, a gun was put to Holmes head. Thorson claims to have overheard the whole thing and testified to that. Although the jury came back 11-1 to convict, the one juror hold out was an 18 yo who happened to be the younger sister of the Rolling 30's ( the crips ) gang member. This is where the bribe originated.
Warren zevon s dad was a gangster in la . Zevon s autobiography I’ll sleep when I’m dead . dirty life and times “ is one of the best
Stumpy zevon was his father s name he was micky cohens best man at his first wedding I believe
Sounds interesting. I'll check it out.
I didn’t know that. Cool gotta check that out
You could do a podcast just on Laurel Canyon
and all people and events that happened there
I thought I recognized that name from a true crime show years ago and from the movie about John Holmes and the Wonderland murders. Val Kilmer played Holmes and the actress that play Phoebe on friend's played his wife till she left him cause he was fixated on his junk. I was on three year's old when that happened.
Funny how they found the perfect actor to play Eddie Nash; that Eric Bogosian is like a dead ringer (pardon the pun) for Nash
"Killing people for revenge is wrong...." What kind of woke bullshit is that Scott?😏
Jimmy said he didn't endorse murder as a moral position either. Very questionable ethics on this show
Do a show on the Cornbread Mafia.
Dude, the body bag thing again. It's the heroin smuggling version of "stripping to pay for college" or maybe "one last score"
You have the Wonderland guy working with Frank Lucas now?
Yes, that's a bit of a stretch.
There's a lot of misinformation in this. This is the first time I've heard anything on this channel, if the rest of their videos have this many factual errors, that's a real mess.
@@BigBadJerryRogershe flat out makes stuff up. His source is always anonymous or what he calls “someone inside the ____ crime family” It’s sad because he was a respected author at some point but he’s lost a lot of credibility.
Scott, do you know you can oil your door so it doesn’t mix it doesn’t squeak
I would argue that the 81 was the most powerful TOC group in SoCal during the early 70s
Will this be on Spotify
Yes, Monday morning
In my opinion, had Frank DeSimone not mess things up, the Italians would have still controlled most of LA and Eddie Nash wouldn’t have been the main guy.
Eddie Nash wasn’t the main guy.
Interesting how things came of age in SoCal in the '70s.
FWIW, a place and decades list i wish i could be in:
1950's NYC
1960's San Fran
1970's L.A.
1980's Miami
1990's Seattle
2000's Atlanta
@@jameskarins1717 True. Or i was gonna say:
2000's Austin TX
2010's Raleigh Durham NC
2020's Nashville
As time goes on it became less about the Zeitgeist and more about real estate speculation. 😀
One of the women in the Wonderland house lived thru it…Susan Lanius
Wonderland is a great film! Check out Val in the movie Sultan Sea. He becomes a drug addiction to find the addicts that killed his wife.
At the end of the day, may we all be honored for our life and crimes.
scott said loggerheads
The condo on Wonderland Street where the Wonderland gang lived has a pretty colorful history of stories about the activity that swirled around the condo literally all day and all night
One of the stories about the comings and goings of individuals at the condo has a rock music theme connected to it.
Allegedly, according to several different sources, various members of Van Halen and Motley Crue went to the Wonderland condo to buy cocaine.
According to these sources, the members of the two bands would get the attention of one of the gang members who would be sitting in a chair on one of the two porches that were located on the front of the condo.
The band member will let the person know how much cocaine they were wanting to purchase and the gang member would lower a basket attached to a rope down to the band member who would put the money needed into the basket and the gang member would pull it back up, take the money out of the basket and go into the condo.
Anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes later, the gang member would walk back out onto the porch, put the cocaine into the basket and lower it down to the band member who would grab the cocaine and leave.
Apparently, various members of the two bands were frequent customers for over a year.
Also, allegedly an unidentified member of one of the two bands was at the condo purchasing cocaine the night before the murders occurred.🎉
According to these sources, the gang members who were on the porch had no idea that they were selling cocaine to members of two L.A. based hard rock bands, one which at the time was the biggest act in rock, the other an up and coming club band which at the time was beginning to attract the interest of several major record labels looking to sign them to a major recording contract.
Also, according to the same sources,the band members never were invited by the gang or with another person who was a friend of the gang went inside the condo.
They had no personal relationship with any of the gang members, especially the main ones who ran the gang.
The band members were just following the protocol the gang had established for customers to buy cocaine from the gang that had been told to them by friends they knew who had been to the condo to buy cocaine from the gang before them.😂🎉🎉😂
What about a Groupo America episode?
Hey now ..Stern fans !
Scott I'm about 97 5/16 % sure that Aerosmith was never a house band there. They were already hugely established before they ever left Boston. Maybe Motley Crue or Van Halen idk
I agree. I think he was confusing Aerosmith with Van Halen
Military industry of complex control, the hippie movement and all the bands.They were all associated with intelligence.All the band members parents were involved with c I a intelligence or by bio warfare like zapa
Sirhan Sirhan was from the same area if Palestine as Nash. He worked at the racetracks..possibly involved with fixing races for Nash. Fits nicely with the C_A ,RFK ,thing in 68. After which Nash became successful. Maybe maybe not .
I still don't get why they risked robbing one of the most powerful crime bosses in LA at the time. You're just asking for trouble. If they had been smart(er) they'd have left town right away. What did they think was gonna happen?
I already listened to this pod, but I’m coming back to support your channel with another comment. Just letting you guys know this was an excellent excellent pod you guys did and no one talks about Eddie Nash and he was such a powerhouse so keep them coming.
Thank you!!
There's alotta crazy stories about Eddie Nash... & one of em is he used to have girl's so desperate for drugs & all.. & he'd make them eat his groceries with his groceries still unpacked & put away 💩 before he gave them the drugs!!! (if you kno what i mean!!)💩💩 😳😳😳😳
😩 Lol... 😩 stG! 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ & they would do it because they were so desperate for their fix! 😩 Crazy...
THE NASH
You guys should do this more often, I'm not a big fan of the modern day stuff. I think we should just leave that alone. BTW, please do not put big Meech in the same breath as Carl Gambino.
Thank you. Not always, but in general I prefer to stay away from contemporary stuff too. But Scott is an investigative reporter, so I respect his research agenda. In terms of long format episodes, expect more like these. Thanks, JB
So Nash got a "hung jury" but Holmes didn't? Okay, got it.
if scott burnstein had a mouthfull of shit, could he say shit.
Eddie sounds like that Fiala guy Sammy Gravano killed back in the day. Eccentric guy with dubios sources of wealth who fancied themselves a tough guy
Get Escobar Jr on Bernie
Eddie Nash was horrific to women and John Holmes would supply him with dancers and actresses and his own gf he met when she was 15,. One of whom was found dead in shopping cart the day after Holmes set her up to go over to Nash's mansion.
😂oh you were there😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
did scott say anuslly
How did a Palestinian become so powerful in l.a ? What was his muscle beyond bodyguard Greg dials?
He wasn’t they are exaggerating. Your right he didn’t have a formal organization behind him like the Milano family or the Sica Brothers
He had Dials and his brother as security from the club he owned. They recruited other muscle for him
Eddie Nash obviously had connections. It's the only reason he didn't go to prison. He bought a judge off and bribed a juror. You don't get by with that (and murder) and not have some form of institutional aid.
The Milano Crime Family was so much more powerful than this guy. Even in the 80s. It wasn’t even close.
are you guys in your respective parent's basements, or have you moved in together in one of your parent's basement.
Any Irish organized crime
We've wanted to record a Kinahan crime family episode for a long time
Normally I don't bother to comment on podcast videos but there's so many errors in this about the stories you've telling here it would take me a long time to list them all. I'm tired of just shaking my head at it.
Eddie Nash was a decent man. He was very reasonable and open-minded. He was a great entrepreneur who lived the American Dream. He is missed.
Rueben Sturmen would be a great addition for the show. He was connected with alot of LCN guys.
