The murder of Lisa Rauch

Update: B.C. coroner will not hold inquest - Idiots.

The Times Colonist is reporting that "A Victoria police officer committed misconduct when he fired a 'less lethal' weapon into a smoke-filled room, fatally injuring a woman on Christmas Day 2019, a retired judge ruled Friday."

"The actions of Sgt. Ron Kirkwood, who had been cleared of any criminal wrongdoing in the shooting of 43-year-old Lisa Rauch, were the subject of a public hearing held by the Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner over 16 days between April and September 2024. Wally Oppal, a retired judge and former B.C. attorney general, presided over the hearing to determine whether Kirkwood committed misconduct under the Police Act."

First of all, Wally Oppal is a d*ck. He was a horrible AG and criminally culpable in shutting down the Missing Woman's inquiry as soon as the Hells Angels and other suspects were mentioned. The guy from Aldergrove that made the T-shirts and billboards about Judges being the Problem had a flat deck with a giant sign on it that said recall Wally Oppal.  

Nevertheless, Wally Oppal is not wrong in this decision. Let's piece together what happened because the story changed over time and we all know what that means. 

At first the family was told "Rauch had ran at officers with a knife and was shot in the chest. Upon examination by doctors, the family found out later this was untrue; Rauch had in fact been about 15 feet away from police and behind a couch." The discrepancy in that account is criminal. 

It was Christmas Day 2019. Lisa was in her home which was support housing. The police kicked open the door and fired a "less lethal" ARWEN - or anti-riot weapon at her in a smoke filled room from 15 feet away. 

First off, WTF. Those plastic bullets are designed for riots. They are not designed to be fired from 15 feet away. They used those often in Belfast when I was there in the /80's. The kids would pick them up after a riot and sell them to us as souvenirs. I have one but have seen several. They were even controversial back then because they caused fatalities even when used properly. 

They were supposed to be fired into a crowd from long distance and bounce them off the ground so hitting the ground would reduce the velocity. First they were called rubber bullets. Some were. They were hard rubber that actually bounced. 

I've seen a rubber bullet that was pointed. Those were literally insane. Travelling at that high a velocity they would definitely penetrate skin which was not the intent. The two I had were plastic and were flat on the face like a slug. 

Even those are lethal because they are hard plastic and rock solid. Hitting someone in the head with those are fatal not less lethal. So the first problem is that weapon should not have been fired inside a house. Doing so wasn't misconduct it was criminal negligence. Now let's look at the changing story. 

First the family was told she came at the police with a knife and they shot her in the chest. That wasn't misinformation, that was a bold faced lie. They even delayed the autopsy and corner report from the family which exposed their lie. 

Now let's look at the changing story before the inquiry. The police said he fired the weapon through a smoke filled room and aimed it at her stomach. That too was a lie. 

"Smoke from a fire in the apartment had obscured the officer's vision, according to testimony, Kirkwood shot Rauch in the back of the head thinking he was aiming at her abdomen."

So she was sitting on a couch in her home on Christmas day with her back towards him 15 feet away. He did not see a knife. He did not see her stomach. He lied. Again.

Once again just like in the execution of the 70 year old gunsmith in Toronto the officer "invoked his charter rights and decided not to take notes or make a statement in the immediate aftermath" to the initial inquiry. That is not his Charter right. 

"Kirkwood testified he believed the fire presented an imminent risk and the situation was out of control, so police needed to incapacitate Rauch quickly." First of all that was a lie and it doesn't make sense. The firemen testified they put the fire out before he fired the plastic bull at at her. He actually fired three rounds at her in a smoke filled room while she was sitting down on a couch with her back towards her. She was no threat. 

When a house is on fire, people evacuate and the firemen go in to extinguish the fire. The firemen were already on scene and had already out out the fire

Even if the firemen weren't there already, there was no need for the police to enter her home. People are supposed to evacuate during a fire. If someone doesn't evacuate that is their choice. The police don't kick in the door and shoot them dead. 

This police officer should not be a police officer any more. He made the wrong career choice. Those anti riot plastic bullets are not to be used indoors. Especially on someone sitting down on a couch in their home on Christmas day with their back towards an officer who just kicked in her door. 

I realize police are human and make mistakes but this was a serious fatal error that should never be repeated. Lying about it was perjury. That alone is a criminal offence not to mention the murder itself. I don't support Defunding the police. 

I support law and order. I recognize that police often risk their lives to save others. I also recognize that some officers are ego maniacs who lose their sh*t when civilians don't obey their command at the snap of a finger. 

These are civilians not soldiers and you are not their commanding officer. You're paid by the civilians to serve and protect them not to order them around like new recruits. 


This is a picture of my plastic bullet I got off a kid in Belfast around 1988/89. It's much larger than a shotgun slug and is solid plastic. That means it's rock solid and when fired from a gun it is lethal. They are not designed to be fired indoors.

The Warm Brotherhood



Before the Hells Angels came to Amsterdam William van Boxtel formed and ran the predominate gang in the /60's called Kreidler Crew East. Van Boxtel's group became Hells Angels and the Hells Angels eventually kicked him out after they took over his crew. Why does that not surprise me?

It has been claimed that Yab Yum owner Hennie Vittali was really a front man for the Hells Angels and that the Yab Yum brothel was really run by his brother Harry and Hells Angel vice president Harry Stoeltie.

It has been said that Hells Angel Harry Stoeltie was "involved" with Willem Holleeder. Somehow I get the feeling that it wasn't just a business relationship. It had to be a pretty special relationship for them to kick out Big William for wanting to liquidate the vespa queen. Personally, I think they were romantically involved and were warm brothers or as they say in German warmer Bruder. At least Danny Kane was honest about his preferences.

The Last of the Mohicans



I'm usually one of the first ones to give the sacred nod when an Indigenous brother rises up and succeeds in life. I'm just a little bit concerned with Daniel Uneputty's chosen affiliation. I think he is better than the club he has been chosen to represent. It's like the term Tongan Crip. Tongans and Samoans have respect. Crips don't.

Here in Canada, Mom Boucher along with his pals Biff Hamel and Salvatore Cazzetta were all members of Boucher's white supremacist motorcycle club. Then after doing some dirty deeds, they joined the Hells Angels.

So aside from being convicted of armed rape, Mom Boucher was a white supremacist. Yet he befriended a brother named Gregory Wooley and let him join a Hells Angels puppet club in Montreal called the Rockers then form his own puppet club called the Syndicate and the Backers so the Hells angels could sell cocaine to all the Crips in Montreal. It was a business transaction not a rise above his bigotry.

Daniel Uneputty and Monica Akihary are Moluccan from Malaysia. Although discovered by Portuguese sailors in the 16th century, the 10 major islands and island groups ultimately fell to the Dutch, who made a fortune exploiting the clove crop there. Today's residents are descendants of indigenous East Indians and slaves brought from Africa by the Netherlands East India Company to work the Dutch plantations. During W.W. II, many Moluccans fought alongside the Dutch to resist Japanese aggression.

After V-J Day, as Indonesia prepared for independence, separatists agitated for Moluccan autonomy, but Djakarta insisted on incorporating the islands among Indonesia's 14,000-island chain. In 1949, Amsterdam officials removed 12,000 of the more adamant Moluccan nationalists to a converted Nazi concentration camp in Holland with the promise (according to the Moluccans) that they one day would be returned to a liberated homeland.

During the nearly 30 years that have passed since then, these refugees have remained together, occupying their own quarters of Dutch cities. Few have been assimilated into Dutch society. Most of the old-timers by now have given up their dream of returning to the free Moluccas. However, their children have taken up the cause and recently have resorted to violence to spotlight their plight. In an attempt to coerce the Netherlands into forcing Djakarta into relinquishing the Moluccas, activists in Holland have claimed credit for many acts of terrorism during the 1970s.

For its part, Holland has washed its hands of the whole question of Moluccan independence, disclaiming any right to interfere in the internal affairs of Indonesia. Another broken promise abetting exploitation. King Billy was dutch. The whole era of Dutch Imperialism and slavery was very, dare I say, very British although the French and Spanish also vigorously participated in it.

So are the Hells Angels now exploiting the Moluccans, to sell crack like they exploited Greg Wooley and those of African descent in Montreal? White supremacists do tend to exploit not befriend indigenous people. The German Hells Agnels have ties to neo Nazis just like Mom Boucher did. The German Hells Angels run brothels there too. Only they have been caught beating the women and forcing them into prostitution.

The Moluccans have been in Amsterdam longer than the Hells Angels. The Amsterdam Hells angels didn't become official until 1978. Ironically enough, the drug related violence in Amsterdam has spiked with their presence.

Daniel Uneputty and the Amsterdam Hells Angels



Daniel Uneputty is the president of the Amsterdam Hells Angels. Another guy with a fat ass fairing. I don't understand what the appeal is for huge fairings. You might as well drive a car.

Uneputty has been president of the chapter since September 21 2004 after they kicked out the founder and former president Willem van Boxtel aka Big William.



It's kind of a complicated matter even without trying to translate news articles. They say Big William was kicked out for allegedly accepting a contract to kill a large criminal who did business with the Hells Angels.

"The murdered real estate magnate Willem Endstra suspected extortion money he paid to William Holleeder, was used to finance drug trafficking by the Hells Angels."

OK let's back up a bit. Willem Endstra was a real estate agent who was accused of laundering drug money. It was said that he was being extorted by William Holleeder. A criminal bad boy who kidnapped the heir of Heineken. I kid you not. He kidnapped the heir of Heineken and held him for ransom. Is nothing sacred? That's almost as bad as kidnapping the Guinness family. It's in bad taste. It's a low life petty thief kind of thing to do.

The story goes Endstra had enough and hired the Hells Angels to kill Holleeder. Some say Big William accepted the contract, other say he didn't. The contract itself was conflicted. The claim is that the plot involved planting a bomb in a Hells Angel facility and blow him up there were other Hells Angels might have been hurt. Like they've never done that before.



From the way I see it, it looks like the beef arises because Holleeder was bigger than Endstra and they were afraid of him. Yes afraid. So the back stabbing weasels betrayed one of their own instead of doing the deed and taking out a high level bad guy. It is more likely that Holleeder got wind of the contract and the rest of the chapter panicked.

It comes as no surprise to hear Amsterdam's Red Light district has gone down the toiletcr account. Thanks! after the Hells Angels slimmed their way into the drug and prostitution market there. The Hells Angels purchased the Yab Yum brothel worth 9 million Euros for 1.8 million. The Hells Angel in charge of Yab Yum was affiliated with Willem Holleeder. Come on people. The idiot rides a vespa:
