Charlie Kray : ウィキペディア英語版
Kray twins

Twin brothers Ronald "Ronnie" Kray (24 October 193317 March 1995) and Reginald "Reggie" Kray (24 October 19331 October 2000) were English gangsters who were the foremost perpetrators of organized crime in the East End of London during the 1950s and 1960s. With their gang, the Firm, the Krays were involved in armed robberies, arson, protection rackets, assaults, and the murders of Jack "the Hat" McVitie and George Cornell.
As West End nightclub owners, they mixed with politicians and prominent entertainers such as Diana Dors, Frank Sinatra, and Judy Garland. The Krays were much feared within their milieu; in the 1960s, they became celebrities, even being photographed by David Bailey and interviewed on television.
They were arrested on 9 May 1968 and convicted in 1969, by the efforts of detectives led by Detective Superintendent Leonard "Nipper" Read. Both were sentenced to life imprisonment. Ronnie remained in Broadmoor Hospital until his death on 17 March 1995; Reggie was released from prison on compassionate grounds in August 2000, eight weeks before his death from cancer.
==Early life==
Ronnie and Reggie Kray were born on 24 October 1933 in Hoxton, Middlesex, to Charles David Kray (10 March 1907 – 8 March 1983), a scrap gold dealer,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ancestry of the Kray twins )〕 and Violet Annie Lee (5 August 1909 – 7 August 1982).〔http://www.ennever.com/showmedia.php?mediaID=1422&medialinkID=1397〕
They were identical twins, Reggie being born 10 minutes before Ronnie. Their parents already had a seven-year-old son, Charles James (9 July 1927 – 4 April 2000).〔Charlie Kray's grave〕 A sister, Violet (born 1929), died in infancy. When the twins were three years old, they contracted diphtheria. Ronnie almost died in 1942 from a head injury suffered in a fight with Reggie.
The twins first attended Wood Close School in Brick Lane, and then Daniel Street School. In 1938, the Kray family moved from Stean Street in Hoxton, to 178 Vallance Road in Bethnal Green. At the beginning of World War II, 32-year-old Charles Kray was conscripted into the army, but he refused to go and went into hiding.
The influence of their maternal grandfather, Jimmy "Cannonball" Lee,〔("Reggie Kray with his grandfather, 1964" ), photo (c) Brian Duffy, ''telegraph.co.uk'', slideshow with ("Fashion and portrait photographer Brian Duffy dies aged 76" ) by Roya Nikkhah, 5 June 2010 12:30 pm BST. Retrieved 5 June 2010.〕 caused the brothers to take up amateur boxing, then a popular pastime for working-class boys in the East End. Sibling rivalry spurred them on, and both achieved some success. They are said never to have lost a match before turning professional at age 19.
