Here we have Killer Kelly. There's no quotations around Killer, so I'm guessing that's his name. He's been buying politicians and using them to divert money from the city to his phony corporations. The Flash gets involved when the previous school commissioner is almost mugged. From there he harasses the gang until they finally turn on Kelly and agree to testify. 

Short and a pretty typical gangster yarn.
