      - -Last gasps of a crook.

      Amazing nobody's made a movie out of him, a one of a kind only in America and boxing.

        HBO did, based on a book written about him called Only in America He was played by Ving Rhames. It wasn't too bad.

          Read up on Tim Witherspoon. He likely got it the worst.

            Was two. Stomped one to death, shot the other in the back.

              Stopped polluting myself with movie shlop 20 yrs ago.

              I only look at headline, and I do remember that name pegged to play Sonny, but of course Hollywood turns even boxing into schlop, only in America!

                  So how long were his prison sentences for those murders and what were the motives?

                      No sentence for either of them.

                      “The first was determined to be justifiable homicide after it was found that King shot Hillary Brown in the back and killed him while he was attempting to rob one of King's gambling houses in 1954. In 1967, King was convicted of second degree murder for the second killing after he was found guilty of stomping to death an employee, Sam Garrett, who owed him $600.”

                      Don’t know how it’s justifiable homicide when the business is illegal...like if someone robs a trap house and I shoot him, that’s not justifiable lol
