Default Harry Roberts (murderer)

I was totally unaware of this statistic...

Harry Roberts is one of the UK's most notorious murderers and longest-serving prisoners..... and also he runs CSS Wizardy (not!!!)

His murder of the policemen made him a hero in some anarchist circles, and anarchists and football fans since the murders have chanted his name to antagonise the police. Chants like "Harry Roberts is our friend, is our friend, is our friend. Harry Roberts is our friend, he kills coppers" (to the tune of "London Bridge Is Falling Down")

Great meaningful text linkage there "the infamous police killer".. I was just checking up on his SEP and I noticed how hard it was to find him... on just about all of his websites too. Figured since "police killer" was his key text, I'd help him out

I am actually named after that guy though. He was at large when my Dad was young and with his surname (obviously) being Roberts he was given the moniker of Harry Roberts. He thought he'd pass it on to me... nice of him wasn't it?
