Richard Gladwell was the pseudonym of a highly skilled hit man who worked for the highest bidder.
Biography
The man masquerading as Gladwell also took up a position in Human Resources under his cover identity, which is where Detectives Gordon and Bullock tracked him down. He had killed two city councilmen, burning his second victim alive in the grounds of Arkham Asylum to leave a clear message, on the orders of his client Carmine Falcone. He managed to give the two detectives the slip, however, and sought to complete a contract on the life of the Mayor, Aubrey James, a hit put out by Sal Maroni. The killer was gunned down by Bullock and Gordon in the Mayor's own residence.[1]
