Larry Donnell "Donnie" Andrews (April 29, 1954 – December 13, 2012)[1] was an American armed robber, murderer, and anti-crime advocate.
[2] Andrews became an armed robber who robbed drug dealers,[3] but his code of ethics included never involving either women or children.
In 1986, local drug kingpin Warren Boardley convinced Andrews (who needed to support his heroin addiction) and Reggie Gross to take on the contract killing of Zachary Roach and Rodney "Touche" Young.
He was denied parole on his first attempts, but continued to study, ended his addiction to heroin, and helped other inmates by running an anti-gang workshop.
[5] Wedding guests included Simon and The Wire cast members Dominic West, Sonja Sohn, and Andre Royo.
