The Calgary Sun has reported that friends of the victim claim one of the two girls with Jonathon Bacon and Larry Amero in the brazen daytime shooting has been left a paraplegic. The names have been released but we're still not sure which Hells angel one was the niece of and which Hells Angel the other was the girlfriend of.
The Vancouver Province is reporting A 21-year-old Maple Ridge woman, who is related to several Haney Hells Angels members, was paralyzed in the brazen hit that killed notorious gangster Jonathan Bacon.
It is tragic the girl is paralyzed. Just like it was tragic when Louise Russo was caught in the cross fire at a Toronto sandwich shop when Toronto Hells Angel Paris Christoforou teamed up with mobster Peter Scarcella in a drug related gang hit.
One person commenting on the article pointed out that the police did issue a public warning not to associate with the Bacon brothers because there was a gang hit on them. It is a tragedy these two girls were wounded, one seriously. Yet they were wanted not to associate with them and did so anyways. They also knew where the money from that boat and everything else was coming from. The mother they shot in Toronto was a completely innocent bystander.
Again, I think it is terrible these two girls were shot one chronically. Yet that is something the Hells angels do. The Hells angels are quick to kill a spouse along with a target just because. The Hells angels are the first ones to threaten someones family. I'm certainly not saying they deserved it. I'm saying that is what they do but we need to take the higher road. The solution is simple. It involves implementing the New York model not the Amsterdam model.

CTV is reporting it was the niece of Michael Hadden, who runs the Haney Hawgs motorcycle shop in Maple Ridge and is believed to be a full-patch member of the Haney Hells Angels chapter. Tragic to hear she is paralyzed. She didn't deserve that. No one does.
It's also sad her Uncle let her go out in public with someone who he knew was at risk of being shot at. Obviously kids can do what they want and go where they want. It would be a deep tragedy if she was sent as am ambassador for the club trying to maintain a close association with someone like the Bacon brothers. That's kind of like how they said the Hells angels would never associate with someone like Robert or Dave Pickton but they did and the Haney chapter was at the centre of it.
Good God you're irritating
ReplyDeleteYeah, pefect; exactly, agent K.
ReplyDeleteI read a great deal about the New York model from the great mag., The New Yorker. It WASN'T Bill Bratton what did it; he just picked up on the "broken windows" ideas, and the CompStat system, to make Police Stations actually ACCOUNTABLE in real time, from a guy who figured all this, after a lifetime with...the NYC Transit Police, the subway guys. That person is the un-heralded hero.
CompStat meant that all crimes in a given precinct were put up on the big board, just as they were called in, or reported; and the Chief of that area was made personally responsible, every morning in a conference-call, for sending Police right to those *hot-spots* which quelled the activity there, real-time intelligence. It worked, because the response was so fast & over-whelming. And of course, rigorous street-control; gatherings of three or more got a squad-car, etc., no boom-boxes, no noise, no drinking or drug-use; no begging, no aggression towards citizens without instant jail. Fixed every street light, every stop-sign or any other signage, and a plethora of new sign-warnings. Good plan, by basically calling out the Precinct Captains, right away, every day, for ANY problems that now showed up, big & bold on the computer-screens. Screw up, they just lost their jobs, like right NOW.
That'll happen in Vancouver any moment, real consequences for Police Officers, won't it...? Heh...
The woman who is now a quadriplegic is the niece of Spike, the president of the Haney chapter. Her name is Leah Hadden-Watts. She is a very nice girl who didn't deserve this. In case you don't know Hadden is Spike's last name. I won't give you his first. He also has a son in the chapter.
ReplyDeleteThanks. CTV is now reporting her uncle is Michael Hadden. I am told his son Jesse is also a member of the club. It’s so tragic. Family members should not be dragged into this.
