Leonard Hoag, nicknamed "Boss Hogg," is (was) the boss of one of the Cincinnati mobs.
- Leonard Hoag didn’t resemble the character from ‘the Dukes of Hazard’, or Tony Soprano, or Don Corleone, or any of the stereotypes of what a gangster should look like. If anything, he resembled a second string middle-class lawyer; which was, after all, what he was. He hadn’t come up through the mobs the way that most crime bosses do. Rather, he sort of fell into being the lawyer for local gangster Ed ‘the Rooster’ Russell. When Russell went up for ten years, Russell shared out control of his rackets between his lawyer Hoag and his main lieutenant, Willie Snodgrass.[1]
Crimson Claw had leased a base from him, the same based that Danny Ferris and Stacy Conrad were hiding out in, while they were stealing from Boss Hogg.[1]
He has / had "a wife and two quite spoiled daughters".[1]
