Former Ontario Nomad dies in prison

CBC is reporting that "One of the men convicted in the murder of Hells Angels recruit Greg Slewidge has died in prison, according to Correctional Service Canada (CSC)."

"Michael Clairoux, 52, had served just over one year of a life sentence when he died on Friday at Millhaven Institution, a maximum security prison outside Kingston, Ont. A news release from CSC did not disclose the circumstances of his death."

"In January 2025, a jury in Perth, Ont., found Clairoux and Lee Marazzo guilty of planning and carrying out the killing of Slewidge, 39, more than five years earlier at a legal marijuana farm. Prosecutors argued the two had been hired by a Hells Angels support club to murder Slewidge, whose father is a former Ontario Provincial Police officer."

Previously I reported that "Clairoux is an ex-Hells Angels member. The two men and Marrazzo were associates. Prosecutors argued a third person, a member of the Red Devils, who has not been charged, directed the hit on Slewidge after a falling out."

Back in 2011 I reported that Michael Clairoux was a full patch member of the Ontario Nomads based in Ottawa under the leadership of Paul (Sasquatch) Porter. He along with 11 associates were busted in a large drug tracking ring in Ottawa. 

So somewhere along the line he fell out of favor with the club.
