"a fallen soldier" .... code word for a gangster.
capricorn, can you tell us more about his gang banging ways in which he inflicted terror and violence on others? Do you think his many victims would have any good to say about him?

"Soldier" = gangster. Thugdom inevitably leads to prison or death. Robinson no doubt caused a lot of misery in his 34 years. No RIP here, just another example of just desserts.

There was a homicide 2.5 miles north of this location about 23 minutes after this one was reported. Wonder if they are related?
