*****

He was the canary who could sing, but couldn't fly.



Abe "Kid Twist" Reles was one of the most vicious and disliked mobsters in the history of the American underworld. To make matters worse, Reles had a face only a mother could love.



After winning a Brooklyn mob war against the three Shapiro brothers (Reles was involved in the murder of all three Shapiros), Reles took over the rackets in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn. Reles and his vicious crew, dubbed "The Boys from Brownsville," eventually caught the eye of Louie "Lepke" Buchalter, the only major crime boss in U.S. history to be executed by the government. Soon, Reles and his crew were charter members of Murder Inc., a battalion of killers who were responsible for somewhere between 500 and 1000 murders throughout the country.



However, in January of 1940, Reles, who was sitting pretty and flush with illegal dough, was arrested and charged with the 1933 murder of small-time hood, Red Alpert. The reason for the pinch was that two of Reles's flunkies, who had witnessed Alpert's murder, feared for their own lives. They ran to the cops, and they both sang the same tune: "It was Abe Reles who killed Red Alpert."

Reles knew he was screwed. He knew that the District Attorney had all he needed to fry Reles's butt in the electric chair. So, Reles did what no one in the underworld thought he was capable of doing: he became a rat.



"Abe 'Kid Twist' Reles - The Fink Who Took Down Murder Inc." tells the story of the rise and fall of Abe Reles, from a street punk, to a killer, to a stool pigeon. His alleged flight attempt landed him flat on his back; squashed like a fly dive-bombing into a speeding car's windshield.

It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
