Who Killed Joe Bralic?

Joe Bralic wasn't a gangster, he's a casualty of war - the drug war. He didn't seem to have an affiliation. He appears to have been another body builder lured into the trap of easy money that wasn't so easy and paid for it with his life.

He's the guy that went to LA for a brief "holiday" and ended up dead. The Tyee wrote an in depth two part article about the mysterious event calling it the deal that killed Superman: http://thetyee.ca/News/2004/05/15/The_Deal_that_Killed_Superman_Part_2/

Unbeknown to his family, the clean cut, well groomed body builder started selling pot. Innocent enough. Then he was trapped by the quick money that can be made trading B.C. Bud for cocaine in the U.S. and selling the cocaine back in Canada. This seems to be where all the huge money is made but the repercussions are deadly.

I see it as greed. Selling a little bud isn't good enough. The lust for dump hummers or expensive cars and a fast lifestyle causes people to drop their standards and sell crack. Even if it's indirectly, that is what the cocaine ends up getting sold as. Cheap and highly addictive creating addicts with broken lives that will kill their mother for five dollars for more crack. There is no honour in selling that kind of rat poison on the street.

So Joe Bralic goes to LA to make the deal. Seemingly the guy who set him up with people in LA is Anton Brad Hooites-Meursing, a local bad boy who attended the castle fun park event with the Bacon brothers and the IS.

Two other criminals Bralic befriended who actually went to LA with him were Garry Favell and Derrick Madinski. Bralic's body was dumped in an alley around 1:00 PM on a Thursday. That same morning Favell and Madinski had checked out of the same hotel into one down the street. They must have known something was up. They came back to Bralic's hotel around 3:00 PM and asked the maid for the key to his room so they could check on their "friend" who was not answering the door. Yet they left LA and returned to Canada without him and without filing a missing person report. With friends like those, who needs enemies.

It appears that Bralic met with the LA cocaine connection around noon. Some claim he was haggling over the price which is unlikely. Others claim it was a straight robbery which is more realistic. Since he had no gang affiliation, the LA drug dealers had nothing to lose by shooting him and taking all the BC bud while they keep the cocaine they were suppose to trade for it. Even more money for them. Think about it, people who sell crack have no morals. They are not trustworthy. Period.

The Tyee article explains that with a gang affiliation dealers are less likely to rob you and shoot you because your gang will retaliate. An informant for the article gave the Hells Angels as an example. Somewhat Ironic. However, Bralic didn't go to LA alone as was thought. Anton made the connection for him. If Anthon has ties to the bacon brothers and the IS maybe Bralic thought he did have the backing of a gang. Why would Anthon hook him up without a gang?

Why didn't Favell and Madinski come with Bralic to the meeting? Or did they? Why did they change hotels that morning? Why did they return to Bralic's hotel room after he was killed, gain entry and return to Canada without filing a missing person report? Why didn't his girlfriend who drove to LA with Favell and Madinski to meet him file a missing person report? Here I thought Matt the rat was bad. Seems like more birds of a feather.

The moral of the story is steroids don't make you bullet proof. Selling pot is one thing but as soon as you cross that line of trading B.C. Bud for cocaine to be sold as crack, the risk of ending up dead is dramatically increased. People who profit from the sale of crack have no morals and can not be trusted so matter what they say. Friends betray friends on a regular basis over the greed of a fast buck.

Last night they had the movie Boondock Saints on TV again. It's kind of a funny movie about two guys in Boston who end up killing two organized crime figures in self defense and go on to exterminate criminal trash who evade the law. It's funny if you look at all the murders like a non reality based western. However, as tempting as that may be, I don't support murder.

Maybe I'm just getting soft as I get older. I guess I just value human life. Murder is really serious. Life does not end at death. Committing murder isn't something we can repay or replace like stealing something from a store. Stealing a life is irreplaceable. You can't give that back and it effects parents, children and siblings forever. What we do in life, echoes in eternity.

We need to set standards and draw lines. I said draw lines not do lines. We need to stay away from the cocaine, crack and meth and we need to value human life more. Murder isn't any more glamorous then selling crack. It's cheap, dirty, senseless. We need to open our eyes and see that greed kills. It kills friendships. It kills people and it destroys lives. Buyer beware. http://www.laweekly.com/2004-04-29/news/a-kilo-full-of-kryptonite

.

Think about it. Bralic goes to LA to trade B.C. Bud for cocaine. Where did he put all the B.C. Bud, in his carry on? Not likely. His girlfriend flew out to Saskatchewan to meet up with Favell and Madinski who drove there from Vancouver. They drove across the border at North Dakota and met with Bralic who had driven there from LA. That's a long drive from LA. Then they all drive to LA together, his girlfriend in his car and Favell and Madinski in the jeep.

.

Do ya think that maybe the B.C. Bud was hidden in the jeep? Or at least picked up by the jeep after they walked it across and stashed it? If Bralic was trading Bud for cocaine, the Bud had to of come from somewhere. Favell and Madinski are the prime suspects. Was Joe Bralic robbed by a LA dealer or betrayed by his own people like so many others in the Vancouver drug war.

.

Interesting to note that the Tyee claims the Hells Angels had tried to recruit Bralic for Ultimate fighting and attended his funeral. If the Hells Angels tried to recruit Bralic for Mixed Martial Arts and attended his funeral and if the Independent Soldiers and crew from the castle fun park meeting are linked to the Hells Angels, who realled killed Joe Bralic? People who profit from exploiting these kids are just as guilty as those that do the hit.

Jesters on Google

The Jesters clubhouse is on Google street view too. It's between Pro Auto Recyclers at 10645 120 street in Surrey also referred to as Scott road for the visitors: http://maps.google.ca/maps?layer=c&cbll=49.196990,-122.885109&cbp=12,,,1,&ved=0CAkQ2wU&sa=X&ei=WufgSpHdJYvUiAOd8-DrCQ

and Al's Auto Wrecking at 10675 Scott road: http://maps.google.ca/maps/place?cid=7337047208270906957&q=Als+Auto+Wrecking&gl=ca&hl=en&cd=3&cad=src:pplink&ei=RefgSv21L4bgjAPTkMD1CQ

Looks like Google took the pictures before they finished the clubhouse. You have to see our more recent pictures to see the fence and the dumb clown logo they put on it: http://gangstersout.blogspot.com/2009/10/jesters-clubhouse-in-surrey.html

White Rock Hells Angels now on Google Street View

The Whiterock clubhouse is on Google Street View. You have to cut and paste a search for 21764 61 Avenue Langley, B.C. to see it now. The bullies had Google's link to my site taken down. They must have found my comments offensive. Don't you hate it when bullies play the victim? Kinda makes them look pathetic: http://maps.google.ca/maps?sourceid=navclient&rlz=1T4ADFA_enCA336CA336&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=white+rock+hells+angels&fb=1&gl=ca&hq=hells+angels&hnear=white+rock&cid=0,0,15722566438680825699&ei=NdzgSoCfF4XIsQOqscHODA&sa=X&oi=local_result&ct=image&resnum=1&ved=0CA0QnwIwAA
This is the web page they must have found offensive: http://www.gangstersout.com/clubhouse.htm

Is that dump truck for burying bodies?



You have to spin it around because it starts off with your back to the property but you can move up and down the street. Just think of the money this will save on police surveillance. Just kidding. It doesn't refresh so it's not realtime. Yet.

The Worst little whore house in Surrey

Update: House of Horrors murder has been released from prison.

Burt Renolds and Dolly Parton starred in the comedy, "The Best Little Whore house in Texas." Unfortunately there's nothing funny about the famous crack house in Surrey that was known as the House of Horrors. That's where sex trade workers were tortured and murdered. Police claim Annette Allan was murdered there and dumped in the Fraser River.

Yvonne Marie Boen's DNA was found there as well as on Picton's Pig Farm. That's a sick connection. Perhaps this is Surrey's dirty little secret. Perhaps it's not so secret. It would be interesting to find out what they found at the Cloverdale dig site. It would also be interesting to find out how the House of Horrors was connected to a Surrey grow rip involving a Hells Angel. The gag order involving Juel Toss Stanton should be over by now.

The thing that gets me wondering is some graffiti I saw a few doors up the street at the same time period. I had heard about the crack house known as the House of Horrors but didn't realize the exact location. Turns out it was a few doors down from a meth lab that burnt down. Someone wrote graffiti on the burned out house that said "Hells Angels Pimp Whalley Girls."





At the time I sluffed it off as unlikely but then I read about Otis Garrett and I saw a Hells Angels enforcing for the crack dealers in Surrey Central. That really surprised me. What were the Hells Angels doing in Surrey Central and why were they enforcing for crack dealers there? I had no idea. I guess I was just naive.

So here's the math. If the Hells Angels are connected to the crack trade in Surrey and if the Hells Angels are involved in prostitution, then maybe that graffiti I saw was a cry for help. It makes me very upset the Hells Angels are now allowed to broadcast their Jesters Puppet Clubhouse in Surrey. That's the last thing we need here.

The Jesters Clubhouse in Surrey

This has got to be the dumbest gang logo I have ever seen. Kim Bolan reported on the Jesters new clubhouse at or about 10665 120th Street in Surrey so I thought I'd drive by and have a look. Sure enough you can't miss it. It's got that stupid clown logo screaming criminal organization for the world to see. http://www.vancouversun.com/news/Puppet+biker+clubs+tied+Hells+Angels+have+cops+worried/2026311/story.html

I can't believe they're allowed to advertise a criminal organization like that. Right between two auto wreckers adjacent to the highest car theft park and ride Sky Train Station in the system. Isn't that ironic. They should seize it under the criminal organization legislation. At least shut it down for the most embarrassing gang logo in Surrey. This isn't a batman movie.

.

I did see a MMA fighter on the fight network the other night with a Jester Tattoo on his shoulder. He was from Quebec and the fight was in Quebec but the crowd booed him. I've never seen a MMA fighter get booed before. Perhaps it's a sign of the times.

The Red Scorpions

Kim Bolan was the one who first broke the news about the Red Scorpions being involved in the Surrey Six murder. Not only were they involved, they were the victims. The Bacon brothers used to be affiliated with the UN and broke off from them to take over the Red Scorpions.

The Red Scorpions used to be friends and or affiliates with the UN. Those were the people killed in the Surrey Six murder. One other guy was killed in the Guildford parking lot and a mother was gunned down not far away with her son in the car. These were the Red Scorpions who were affiliated with the UN.

It is clear that the Bacon brothers were attempting a hostile take over of the Red Scorpions similar to the take over of the Independent Soldiers leadership which for all practical purposes was successful. http://www.vancouversun.com/news/linked+Scorpions+gang+make+Surrey+court+appearances/1582997/story.html
The UN did not take kindly to the take over and have been killing off bad bacon as we speak: http://www.vancouversun.com/entertainment/movie-guide/Bacon+brothers+associates+dead+since+warning+issued/1963998/story.html
Obviously this is over the sale of drugs. However, since the Hells Angels are clearly the cocaine kingpins in the province and no one sells drugs in Prince George without the Hells Angels permission, one has to wonder how they fit into the picture. Perhaps we could ask Hells Angel Larry Amero who was seen with Independent Soldier Randy Naicker. Randy N was with the Bacon brother's crew when they were arrested in Castle park wearing body armour. http://www.vancouversun.com/news/Founder+Metro+Vancouver+gang+Independent+Soldiers+parole/1993805/story.html
The police tell us that the new IS are a puppet club of the Hells Angels just like the Crew, the Renegades and the court Jesters. Since the Hells Angels run all these puppet clubs and profit from their sale of drugs, how can they not be involved in this turf dispute between the UN's Red Scorpions and the Bacon brother's Red Scorpions? Larry should know. He's the one with his finger in all the cow pies.

For all practical purposes the Hells Angels tolerate the UN and have been caught doing business with them but it's all very suspicious when Ron Lising and John Punko claim the UN aren't welcome in the province and they will pound anyone who does business with them. It makes for the Hells Angels associates who do do business with the UN suspicious. Especially when a UN members ended up dead in Mexico after having done business with a Hells Angel associate there. Did I say Matt the Rat again? My bad.

Perhaps the UN are perfectly aware of the betrayal and were responsible for the death of the Hell's Angels Bob and Doug McKenzie shot up in Mexico. It's all a viscous circle of betrayal and speculation. More like a soap opera. There used to be honour amongst thieves back in the day. Not any more. Now the Hells Angels just keep lying to as many people as will believe them.

My point is, as we clearly see how bad the Bacon brothers and associates are, let's not forget who encourages, supported and or endorsed their hostile take over of the Red Scorpions because the puppet master is not less blameworthy than the puppet.

Street prostitution

The Province ran an opinionated editorial on prostitution: http://www.theprovince.com/health/Street+prostitution+scourge+that+must/2118802/story.html

They say prostitution is the oldest profession so what's the problem. I tell you what the problem is, exploitation. Remember back in the day when there used to be areas of Vancouver were prostitutes were pretty? Now everywhere you go the skid row prostitute shows up needing $5 for crack.

It used to be just the prostitutes from East Van were scary, beaten and abused drug addicts. Now, that's all there is. Take Surrey for example. A Surrey crack ho is frightening. Any john who wants to have sex with that is disturbed. However, she didn't always look that way. The drugs and the std's have physically transformed her. Legalize it? I disagree. That will not stop exploitation. It will only make a difficult task impossible as the police wouldn't be able to make any arrests. The plague would continue. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=af3RjDntlhs

The real problem is the crack and crystal meth. We see prolific offenders steal to pay for the drugs and exploited woman ho for it. We need enforcement to help addicts stop committing suicide at taxpayers expense.

The New York Model

Everyone talks about the New York model but few have any idea what that means. From the mid 19th century in Gangs of New York to the Warriors of the /70's, New York City had a history of being plagued with gang crime. Yet everyone talks about how New York has changed and how safe it is now. This is what people refer to as the New York model.

It didn't happen through safe injection sites or through legalization of crack. Three things happened. 1) They cracked down on the gangs 2) They cracked down on the crack dealers and stopped letting them sell crack in public and 3) They moved Disney on the Deuce.

When I visited New York in the /80's there were no real gangs. Just a handful of small insignificant ones. The police broke up the gangs by making it harder for them to do business when they wore colours. If they saw a gang or individual wearing gang colours, they would take the person aside and search them. If they were found with drugs or weapons, they were arrested.

Wearing gang colours was just cause for a search. Here gang tattoos should be just cause for a search. Gang tattoos are not freedom of expression and freedom of association. Chris Hudson in Australia pointed to his Hells Angels tattoo and said "Don't you know who I am? I'm a Hells Angel." Having and showing that tattoo was an act of intimidation. Being a member of a criminal organization is just cause for them to be periodically searched.

Not every day in the middle of the night but certainly as they go out in public and jeopardize public safety. Random searches of known gang members for drugs or guns is an example of the New York model which was successful in restoring peace in that crime ridden area.



When I was in New York, gangs weren't the problem, the crack epidemic was. That was the first thing they did to address the problem. They stopped letting crack dealers sell crack in public. This sounds simple but takes focused determination to achieve. As soon as police turn the corner the crack dealers come back like rats on garbage.

Knowing that crack dealers get released quickly and that the paper work on the arrests is undaunting, it's easier to drive by and turn a blind eye to it. Following up on a campaign to stop crack from being sold in public at Surrey central requires ongoing attention. Surveillance cameras would help.

Moving Disney on the deuce was shocking.

East 42nd Street was full of crack dealers and smutty porn theatres like Soho in London. Moving Disney in was high risk but it paid off. That's like moving Disney to Main and Hastings in Vancouver. Yet a coordinated effort saw a transformation in the City which the rest of the world refers to as the New York Model. It doesn't come through complacency and safe injection sites. We've tried being enablers and it didn't work. Now let's try being responsible citizens and see how that goes. Let's try the New York model and leave Amsterdam for Amsterdam.

Let's give it up for New York.

That's not where I'm from but it is where I've been.

I support the Ghetto Gospel.

Bad Bacon's wrongful death suit

So the Mohan's have filed a wrongful death suit against those charged in their son's murder along with the landlords of the strata. Interesting discussions have arisen. http://www.vancouversun.com/news/Surrey+victim+parents+file+suit+saying+death+preventable/2117965/story.html

.

The purpose of a wrongful death suit in civil court is often a back up in case the judicial system fails as many surmised in the OJ case. Did the LAPD plant the bloody glove? Unlikely but possible. Did he do it? Criminal court said no civil court said yes. All I know is putting that show on TV by OJ, "If I did it, Here's how it happened" would have been satanic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/If_I_Did_It

.

What happens if the judicial system in B.C. fails again and the Bacon brothers walk. Again. Thus the need for a wrongful death suit. Getting off this time is unlikely with a confession but already it looks like history repeating itself with an abuse of the charter.

In August of 2005 Jonathan Bacon was arrested with two machine pistols, two handguns, silencers, (like Randy Potts) a bullet proof vest, crack, ecstasy, marijuana and almost $100,000.00 in cash. June of 2008 Judge Donald Gardiner ruled police did not have grounds for the warrant used to make the seizures and this bad bacon walked. http://www2.canada.com/theprovince/news/story.html?id=4eac5a2f-2b73-4575-a562-b18d374179d3

.

Did you catch that? The police had a search warrant. This quack of a Judge over ruled the search warrant and let the guy free who was caught with guns and crack. I think the Mohan's should include Judge Donald Gardiner in their wrongful death suit. He carries serious liability here for failing to protect public safety.

This is an example of a bad decision that leaves the public wondering if this judge is inept or corrupt. Which is it? It's either one or the other because this kind of defiant abuse of the charter is clearly treason. Yet April 2007 we see history repeat itself.

In April 2007, the Bacon brothers were caught again with four loaded handguns and five magazines in their SUV and their lawyer is once again trying to throw out the evidence on a abuse of the charter. The police obtained a warrant to follow the SUV. The Bad Bacon's were involved in a shootout, as their vehicle was riddled with bullets and Jamie was hit though incurring only a bruise thanks to body armour. http://www.vancouversun.com/news/Bacon+brothers+court+drug+charges/2120063/story.html

The police investigated the crime scene and found .40 caliber shells inside the corvette Jamie was driving which was riddled with .45 caliber bullets. It appeared that the Jamie was was firing back at the shooters with a glock.

.

The corvette, the SUV and the garage door were all riddled with bullets. A search of the SUV found four loaded handguns in a secret compartment. This was a crime scene. Police don't need a warrant to search a crime scene. Abusing the charter yet again would be treason.

Another bad Bacon is their parents who deny and rationalize criminal behavior. Good parents don't so that. The father, Davie Bacon, the prime pig so to speak arrogantly told the media his kids, the three little pigs, weren't gangsters and that his son Jonathon was innocent and that he was confident all charges against them would be dropped and the matter would be over with. http://www2.canada.com/vancouversun/news/story.html?id=cf31bc76-e4e6-43f9-8383-a8b6d3ed6bba

That was in 2008 right before Donald Duck threw out the evidence against his son Jonathan Bacon, where Jonathan was caught with guns, drugs and cash. The father prime pig was right. The charges against his son were dropped through an abuse of the charter but the case was far from over. His son was not innocent. He was caught with the guns, drugs and cash. The evidence was thrown out by abusing a technicality. For his father to arrogantly claim his son was innocent is an outrage. His name should be added to the wrongful death suit.

.

Another bone of contention I have is the fact that the court recently heard that on February of 2007 all three brothers were under investigation for conspiracy to commit murder. Why would the youngest brother be charged in the Surrey Six murder but not the older two brothers? They should be added to the wrongful death suit.

East Van doesn't look after it's own

The Vancouver Province ran an excellent article by a retired VPD officer about exploitation in East Van: http://www.theprovince.com/news/operation-phoenix/supply+young+kids/2085350/story.html

.

He spoke about the exploitation of the youth and how predators are ready to take advantage of them. He compared it to throwing a poodle into a shark tank. He touched on prostitution as young as 14 and gave an example of even younger than that. All to pay for drug addictions from exploited addicts.

.

I think the key word here is predators. That's exactly what they are. Many from East Van used to beak off and say we take care of our own. Perhaps it used to be. Perhaps it never was. Sick yuppies from the Granville strip occasionally participated in malicious beatings of the homeless. The recent attack on a homeless man on the Drive where three white males set a homeless man on fire as he slept on an abandoned couch was shameful.

.

The theory was that the homeless were safe from those kind of attacks in East Van. Yet the VPD released videos of under cover officers dressed as vulnerable seniors in East Van. Often they would get beaten and robbed.

I remember taking teenagers into blood alley by Pigeon corner to hand out food, jackets and gloves during winter. The youth I brought were surprised to see the reaction of the homeless. First it was fear. The homeless were afraid the youth were going to assault them. Then it was shock and relief when instead of beating them the youth gave them something to help them make it through the night.

.

.

I never really clued in until now but the elderly and the homeless have always been exploited in East Van. The reason people beak off and claim East Van takes care of their own is because the bullies don't want outsiders protecting their victims from being robbed. Nor do they want anyone to interfere with the money they make from exploiting the addicts. This is how the Hells Angels who import cocaine into Canada make their living.

.

Once we expand the CCTV project from Scott Road Sky Train Station to Surrey Central, the next step is to do it in East Van. You can't recover from an addiction where you have predators yelling crack crack crack in your face pushing the drug on you. We need to target the dealers not the addicts.
