A notorious hitman was so ruthless that he even tried to murder his own brother.
Nate 'Boone' Craft says he killed at least 30 people over the course of his criminal career, but it's believed it could have been more.
Craft grew up in Detroit and claims to have murdered his first victim at the age of just 10.
He eventually landed himself behind bars and was held in a juvenile home for some time before being released in the 1980s.

But Craft's time in jail didn't deter him from returning to his life of crime; he quickly returned to it and landed himself a job as a hitman for the Best Friends gang which was started by brothers Rockin' Reg, Boogaloo, Ghost, and Wizard Brown.
At one stage, Craft was making as much as $50,000 per kill - a far cry from his childhood where his parents worked tirelessly to still find themselves financially struggling.
There was one kill that he tried to do that he wasn't hired for however, and that was the murder of his own brother, Willie.

Recalling the ordeal, Craft explained on Say Cheese TV: "I made so much money that my brother tried to rob me once and I had to tell him, 'Man, you're my big brother, true enough. Don't make me put you in the ground.'"
Craft went on to allege that his brother was the only one who could have stolen the $6,000 in question, which he'd hidden in a sock and up into their TV set.
But Craft's brother, a frequent drug-user, denied any wrongdoing.

"My brother Willie was sitting up in the bathroom shooting up," he went on to recall. "So I go back out to my car and get my shotgun."
Defending his actions, Craft hailed Willie as a 'brother no more' after he'd robbed him.
While he was dead set on shooting his sibling, their mother intervened.
"I pulled the trigger but my mama pushed the gun up and blew a hole in the roof," the ex-hitman recalled.
After much back and forth with his mother, he went on to promise her that he wouldn't kill his brother while she was still alive.

It's unclear if the pair ever reconciled.
Eventually the gang that Craft worked for was closed in on by police, and he chose to tell the authorities all he knew about the Best Friends gang in exchange for a shorter sentence.
He went on to spend 17 years behind bars and came out a different man.
Craft turned his back on his former life of crime and is now believed to be a father.
