Hells Angel charged with B&E and for failing to register as a sex offender

Eric Franco, 38, was the sergeant-at-arms for the Hells Angels chapter in Lynn, Massachusetts ten miles north of Boston. He just receives a 21 years sentence for possession of a firearm and ammunition after committing a felony. Police arrested Franco after finding the gun and ammunition in his apartment while investigating a report that Franco was assaulting his girlfriend.

Franco’s criminal record already included three convictions for assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and convictions for indecent assault and battery, failure to register as a sex offender, breaking and entering with intent to commit a felony, and conspiracy to violate the controlled substances act.

B&E and failing to register as a sex offender. What a great club of motorcycle enthusiasts. Evidently you don’t have to be a drug dealer to join the club. You can be a thief and sex offender.

State Police announced that they had arrested four suspects and executed multiple search warrants on the North Shore as part of a probe into criminal activities of the Hells Angel and Red Devils motorcycle clubs.

Two of the four suspects arrested were Hells Angels; two others were Red Devils. Two other suspects are still being sought. All six face charges of kidnapping, mayhem, and extortion, State Police said. Kidnapping, mayhem, and extortion. The Red Devils is the Hells Angels puppet club charged with helping the Hells Angels traffic crystal meth in South Carolina. Greg Donley was the Salem, Massachusetts president who was also convicted of trafficking crystal meth for the Hells Angels.
