"Celebrity" gangster and a known grass. Wouldnt be surprised to learn that it wasnt suicide but made to look like that.

Stolen a living off the Krays name for years even though he was only a child when they got locked up.

Or was he shot, and it was made to look like suicide. I bet he wasn't short of enemies.

For any hip hop fans, Jay-Z copied a photo of Dave Courtney for the Blueprint album cover.

Very possible, though I read somewhere this morning that Courtney struggled to come to terms with the murder of his stepson some years ago.

Perhaps you should think about what rumours you post on social media

Video posted by the person prior to his death - very sad

What rumours? He was a police informant.

And I wouldnt have been surprised if it had turned out to be foul play, thats not spreading a rumour, thats opinion. Clearly the video rules that out and it was suicide.

I couldn’t understand a word he was saying
