One of Don King's long time associates,Virgil Ogletree died today at 84.
At one time him and Don King were the biggest number rackateers in Cleveland along with Alex "Shonder" Birns
Ogletree got pinched a couple years ago with that rat Tony Delmonte who used to own the Drip Stick down in the Warehouse District.
Ogletree probally died from Alzheimers,which prevented him from standing trial.
There are few guys like Virgil who are still around who still remember the very colorful and "explosive" times of the Cleveland LCN......age has caught up to most everybody...Angie Lonardo died last March.....
Virgil will be missed...

A Bengals fan who cares about the old criminal element of Cleveland... Either you really care, in which case I would hope your related to the guy, becuase outside his family and some friends, he won't be missed by the people of Cleveland, but if your not related this really would make you a true piece of work... Or this is some attempt at smack, which is the way I'm leaning, which makes you pathetic...

I know his son-in-law Jesse Franklin. Hey Jaft,stop reaching on the "smack" thing...Ask anyone who's been "in the game" for awhile in East Cleveland,especially the around Miles/131st area and they will tell you how powerful this guy,especially with the politicans....
you were wrong about your assumption.
