Meet Eddie Nash, The Coke King Suspected Of The Wonderland Murders

By  Audra Moen

How could a man be accused of orchestrating one of the most gruesome multiple homicides in Los Angeles history and yet, seemingly, walk free? The story of Eddie Nash is a chilling testament to the complexities of justice, power, and the dark underbelly of Hollywood. Eddie Nash was not merely a nightclub owner; he was a figure who allegedly danced on the fringes of legality, a man whose name became synonymous with the infamous Wonderland Murders.

Born Adel Gharib Nasrallah in 1929 in British Palestine (now Israel and Jordan), Eddie Nashs journey to becoming a notorious figure in Los Angeles is a tale of immigration, ambition, and alleged criminal involvement. He arrived in the United States at the age of 17, settling in California and navigating the often-harsh realities of life as an immigrant. He built an empire of nightclubs, restaurants, and other businesses, but behind the glittering facade lay a darker world of drug dealing and alleged criminal activity. Nashs name is inextricably linked to the Wonderland Murders, a brutal quadruple killing that occurred on July 1, 1981, at a townhouse on Wonderland Avenue in Laurel Canyon. The victims were members of the Wonderland Gang, a group of drug dealers operating in the Los Angeles cocaine trade during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
