    Tom and Bob, thank you for your service. As soon as I heard the first jury was 11-1 I knew there was a bribed juror. What a shame, that Nash, Dials and Holmes never answered for their crimes while alive. That being said, as I say, “Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas, and Sometimes you dont wake up”

    Great interview! Very professional. There’s no question Nash ordered the murders, I’m interested to see who actually carried them out. It’s just odd to me that none of the players would name them even on their death beds

      Not really, the mob itself has hundreds of murders that are unsolved that many members took to the grave. The whole deathbed confession garbage is a relatively new phenomena. There was a time when people in the game actually did take their criminal acts to the grave. The guys in Nash’s crew were old school, they weren’t giving up a thing. 👍

    • @keithgraham3764
      @keithgraham3764 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's not entirely accurate. According to Tom Lange, Ron Launius wanted to kill both Eddie Nash & Greg Diles but David Lind along with Billy Deverell talked Launius out of it. At the time of his death, Ron Launius was under suspicion for as many as 27 murders...Launius was no amature!

    I remember as a kid growing up in Hollywood-the 4 on the Floor Murders; 5 blocks from our apartment off Hollywood Blvd. I was fascinated yet disgusted!!!!
    Eddy Nash owned the Odyssey where ALL the sexually unexplained went as teenagers to party: One of the first places to play Madonna WAAAY before her first full album 💿 came out. Every couple weeks a new single would land, “Physical Attraction,” “Think of Me,” Everybody!!”
    Wow! What heady times We lived in at that time!! Suddenly in ‘84 all the geeks and wannabes like Steven Gozelius started infiltrating Our hangout and We all left in droves!! Every wannabe wanted to be a part of “Odyssey” making US sick 🤢 🤮!!

    O don't think Holmes would be there willingly. I think he was there so if Nash went down then Holmes would go down with him. On the other hand those dudes who ripped off nash are portrayed as scum of the earth. It seems the world is a better place without them and they fucked around and found out

    • @keithgraham3764
      @keithgraham3764 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      John Holmes said Eddie Nash had more power than the police. When your own superiors are telling you you can't talk to the prime suspect ( Nash ) it's no wonder Lange and the DA couldn't get a conviction. This had more to do with the power Eddie Nash wielded than Lang's ability as a homicide detective.

    • @101kmontgomery
      @101kmontgomery 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I understand the politics but the question still stands. Presently nobody has cited a specific case aside from the one at hand that Lange has solved. I'll find a case that Lange solved! It will take research but I'll find one. The Dude abides...
