Everything about Leo Vincent Brothers totally explained
Leo Vincent Brothers (1899-1950) was an early 20th-century gangster who gained notoriety throughout the underworld after being convicted of the
1930 murder of
Chicago Tribune reporter
Jake Lingle.
Starting out as a low-level member of the
St. Louis gang known as the
Egan's Rats, Brothers soon graduated into labor racketeering and contract murder. Dodging a 1929 murder indictment, Brothers fled to
Chicago, where he found work in the Capone mob. Leo was ultimately convicted of the Lingle murder, being sentenced to fourteen years. Most observers, then and now, believe that Brothers was handed up to the state by
Al Capone as a sacrifice.
After his release in 1940, Brothers returned to St. Louis, beat his original murder case, and became hooked up with the local mob. Three months after an abortive attempt on his life, Leo Brothers died of heart disease in St. Louis on
December 23,
1950.
