Original Toronto Star caption: Miami; Fla.-He stole their hearts; their money and their dignity. But the 58-year-old Canadian gigolo says he gave his victims the time of their lives. Sure I took their money; but they got their money's worth out of me; Leslie gall told The Star in a Florida prison; where he is serving 10 years for fraud;forgery and swindling a Ft.Lauderdale woman. During a year-long; love-'em-and-leave-'em escapade; after he jumped ball in Hamilton; the balding Lothario waltzed his way into the hearts - and bank accounts - of women from Florida to California. Most were over 60. [Incomplete]
