The Rise, Fall and Release of Lorenzo "Fat Cat" Nichols

Lorenzo Nichols was born on December 25, 1958, in Birmingham, Alabama. He was raised by his grandmother in Bessemer, AL until he moved in with his mother, Louise Coleman, in Queens, New York at the age of 10. Nichols and his mother, a nurse's aide (his father was a plumber), lived in the Ozone Park neighborhood, located in the southeast section of the borough. Nichols dropped out of middle school. He began his criminal career committing armed robberies. His first arrest came at 13-years-old and he was arrested again in 1976. Nichols eventually moved on to selling cocaine and heroin, supplied by Italian Mafiosi. He later obtained his heroin from a Chinese supplier whom Nichols' associates referred to as "John" after finding his real name difficult to pronounce. #fatcat #LorenzoNichols —— "Tokyo Music Walker - Way Home" is under a Creative Commons (CC-BY) license. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3lL...
