[edit] Name
The article is very confusing. If his "real name" (birth name?) is John Seybold, then how can he have written his book under the "pen name" of John Seybold? The reference site about the movie Thief says, "The real 'thief' was a man names James Seybold. He was the technical advisor to the movie in Chicago while being sought after by the FBI for many robberies." The other link about prisoners also refers to John Seybold. Nowhere is Hohimer mentioned.
So who is Frank Hohimer?? It appears to be the character name in the movie, or else an alias of Seybold's. The article should therefore be under the name John Seybold. Unless someone makes a case otherwise, I'm going to move the article to John Seybold (criminal), fix the disambiguation page, and reword the article to clarfify the name situation.

- Having seen no opposition, and having confirmed the facts via one of the cited references (the interview article), I edited the article, moved the page, and updated links. MCB 02:30, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
