Fun fact: This guy’s story was partly adapted into the 1975 film “Dog Day Afternoon,” and he got $7500 for the film rights of his story and received 1% of the film’s total profits, with which he was finally able to pay for Eden’s surgery.

Also really cool to note that half his family was polish immigrants, which are even today notably conservative and homophobic. And he was woke in the 60s and 70s, working with LGBT organizations.

The robbery was a mafia operation that went awry and he was *awful* to Eden. Constantly misgendered and deadnamed her.
