In 19S2, c. -convict Carl ton O Brien, once described as a "mastermind ' of the holdup, was shot and killed from ambush. Another onetime suspect, George O'Brien mo relation to Carlton', was found shot to death in his automobile in l!i."4. It never was officially determined whether his death was murder or suicide. Bookie George R. Killeen was shot to death. He figured in early Brink's questionings. a did Louis iThe Tig) Uva who rnrd of a heart seizure. Another key figure m the early Brink's investigation was a tough Boston bookie named Paul Carlson. Carlson vanished in 1954. Police believe he was slain by the underworld.

The judge who was to have presided at the Brink's trial also is dead. Judge Joseph L. Hurley heard only the original motions before suffering a heart seizure early this year. Violence was not always suc cessful. Joseph (Specs) O'Keefe, : also under indictment, was am bushed and wounded during an , outbreak of gang warfare in Bos Ion in 1954.
