| now you see this is somehting i can talk about
mark brandon reid was a famous australian criminal
his 'job' as he called it was to rob and steal from the already 'scum' of the earth, he was nicknamed the toe cutter or soemthing along those lines,
his favourite form of torture was to cut their toes off,
he was open about his job and genereally police did not touch him because he only stole from criminals,
he spent many years in jail, and you are right he did kill people but only if he was forced too,
many bounty hjunters hunted him and many contracts were out on his head, although he did not care,
yes the film is good,
but the book is so much better, many more stories to read in it!
he openly does admit killing sammy the turk however the circumstances are relatively unknown, however it is obvious,
if you get the book,
the first chapter tells of how because of his chosen job people would put contracts on his head,
one day he was out walking someone stopped him and asked him to help read a map, when his gueard was down they pointed a gun at him, took his weapons and took him to dig his own grave as he was digging he was wearing handcuffs, he pursuaded his captor to release the handcuffs so he could dig better, choipper hit him with the spade buried him and drove his car home!
amazing guy and not someone to be messed with!
READ the book! the film is better if you do!
sorry to blabber but this guy is truly amazng, was australias most wnated man for a long time! and how he never died when every criminal in australia hated him! |
