Dead at 81, ‘King Scum’ Tony Felloni flooded Dublin with heroin and was despised by drug-ravaged communities
The Death of ‘King Scum’: Tony Felloni dies at 81
The death of Tony Felloni, one of the country’s most notorious heroin dealers, will probably be celebrated in the inner-city communities where he once unleashed misery, devastation and death.
He died on Monday in the manner that many of his victim’s families would have wished for: as a lonely 81-year-old who ended up spending a large part of his life in prison. Felloni survived into old age with HIV – but his criminal activities brought an early death to many others.
