Good riddance, he was a nasty piece of work.

Was a petty criminal in the early 60s and then got involved in one big job. Not sure who says he's a hero but it's a tad harsh in the circumstances to call him a "thug", afaik he had no record of violence, and no offences since 1965 which means he lived nearly half a century with a clean sheet.

I'd go along with him being a bit of a toerag. A man was injured and he was party to it, directly or indirectly, with speculation whether it had an effect on his health ultimately leading to his death.
