CBC is reporting that Justin Smith was a member of the Fallen Saints motorcycle club when he was arrested in January, 2015 as part of the Project Forseti investigation. He has been sentenced to 18 years in prison with no opportunity to apply for parole for nine years. Hells Angels member Robert Allen was convicted of cocaine trafficking last February following a trial in December.
"Smith emerged as a central figure as the investigation progressed. He pleaded guilty this week to nine counts, including dealing fentanyl, heroin and cocaine; having proceeds of crime in excess of $5,000; possessing and transferring a handgun; and recruiting members to the gang." He had 26 previous convictions prior to this one.
He was dealing fentanyl for the Hells Angels. Imagine that. During the investigation police seized 5.4 kilograms of crystal meth, 2.6 kilograms of cocaine and 3,358 fentanyl pills.
