OK this post is going to be a work in progress. I'm a bit slow. A friend just told me the Coquitlam clubhouse had also been seized under criminal organization legislation. I found a YouTube video of that event dated October 2007. I was aware of the Naniamo clubhouse seizure but not the Coquitlam one.
I'm going to do some more digging and form a list of seized clubhouses. Which of course explains why the Hells Angels don't want the courts to recognize the fact that the Shadow clubs are affiliated so they don't get seized as well.
Halifax was seized: http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2003/01/30/hells_angels.html
Oshawa was Seized: http://www.newsdurhamregion.com/article/107609
Interesting to note that aside for the usual trafficking of cocaine the Naniamo clubhouse was also under investigation for conspiring to keep a common bawdy house and procuring: http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/story.html?id=aedd0f80-94e2-4b93-b029-acdb4bdedf6c&k=11170
I had to look up what that meant. Another interesting connection to the Surrey crack ho allegation.

Wow, thanks for the link. Can’t say I’m sorry to hear the news. Perhaps their endorsement of the Zig Zag crew and Famous Amos being caught on video cutting crack cocaine for the Hells Angels might have something to do with it.
ReplyDeleteQuite familiar with the Coquitlam HA house. Right in a nice residential neighborhood and almost across the street from some very nice condos. It's also not too far from Willie's pig farm. We had to drive by the house to get to our old place in Burnaby; unless we always went by at the wrong times, there was never anyone there. Weird. Then we move over to Maple Ridge and Haney Hawgs/chapter hosue thing was one street behind us. We only heard the loud head-splitting motors in MR and saw a few of the sometimes. MR is riddled with meth. I swear, I think the devil himself cooked the first batch of that scourge and put it in society.
