Christmas Epiphany 2011

Well here it is. I'm going to post the Christmas Epiphany early this year because I have a ton of stuff to do and my computer is screwed. An epistle is a letter. An epiphany is an awakening. Buddhists say Nirvana. In Zen they say enlightenment. An epiphany isn't a full scale Nirvana or enlightenment. It's just a small step in that direction. A light goes on and after connecting the dots in two previously unrelated items things all of a sudden make sense.

When I first started this blog and web site people kept asking me what my hate is for the Hells Angels. By now they don't ask that any more because the Hells Angels violent control of the drug trade has become clear.

One thing is certain and that's the Rizzuto family are getting wiped off the planet by what appears to be non Italians. Most of the hits aren't following the norm. A sniper shooting the patriarch through the window in front of his family. Firebombing a funeral home where a funeral was to take place. That was abnormally disrespectful. That's something that neither the Italians or the French would do. They have more respect for the dead than that.

People ask me who I think is responsible and I say the Hells Angels to which they respond of course you do. Yet while combing through some English translations of some French news articles I had an Epiphany. It was at that time my computer had an intrusion attempt that crashed my whole system completely.

Speaking of talking about things I have no idea about, I'm going to mention the Italian Mafia in Canada. Since I'm from the West coat, I know next to nothing on the subject. I know the Italians use to have gill nets and wine with a small bonfire in Ambleside beach back in the day. No harm in that. Yet I went for lunch with an author from Montreal last month and he said what surprised him most was when the Rizzutos gave Mom Boucher the heroin trade way back when. I said the Rizzutos gave the Hells Angels the heroin trade in Montreal? and he said yes. They had to pay the Rizzutos a cut but the family let the Hells Angels take it over because it was easier for them to manage.

Well I said. That would kinda support my theory that it's the Hells Angels putting hits on the Rizzuto family simply because they don't want to pay them a cut any more. Now before you scoff and cry blasphemy, let's look at an interesting article in French from January 2007. Translated into English it claims:

A family of Granby has used threats and intimidation for two years to recover $900,000 with the leaders of the Rizzuto clan, learned the Royal Canadian Mounted Police during its investigation of the Sicilian Mafia. The conflict has almost degenerated into bloody war.

In a document of 131 pages to accompany requests for search warrants, the RCMP said the episode in detail, as the organization (the Rizzuto clan) is having a conflict with the D'Amico family of Granby.

In January 2004, the clan chief, Vito Rizzuto, was arrested at the request of the Americans who accuse him of being involved in a triple murder on behalf of the Bonanno family in New York. His lieutenant, Francesco Arcadi, takes the lace. A month later, Luigi D'Amico him phone the restaurant to his son, St. Charles La Trattoria, in Granby, to make an appointment.

At the end of the afternoon, the RCMP hidden cameras reveal the presence of Arcadi, Luigi d'Amico and his son Tiziano back in the office of the Consenza social club, which serves as the headquarters of the clan Rizzuto, Saint-Léonard. It is unclear what men have said. But in August 2005, Arcadi told a sidekick that "bikers" of Granby wanted to "cut off his head."

Halloween night, 2005 Nicola Varacalli from the Rizzuto clan is kidnapped. The police know who the kidnappers. But it seems that they have kidnapped Varacalli to send a message to the Rizzuto clan.

Negotiations continue with the kidnappers. RCMP captures a multitude of conversations. Thus, in the bar Laennec, another haunt of the Rizzuto clan in Laval, a henchman of Arcadi, Lorenzo Giordano, mentions the name Patrizio D'Amico, he associates the "frenchman" (Hells Angels). He suggested paying half a million now and $ 400 000 later, when Varacalli will be released. It has been said that D'Amico family of Granby is linked to the Hells Angels.

This article is in English: Montreal kingpins rattled by small-town gang. On Aug. 22, 2006, a scuffle outside a downtown restaurant between Mr. Del Balso and Hells Angels supporter Charles Huneault ended with the Mafia men opening fire on Mr. Huneault's Porsche.

When an underling urged him to cool off, Mr. Del Balso said: “So why does this guy (Mr. Huneault) have the honours of grabbing my throat?” A week later, the gang was flustered further when one member, Domenico Macri, was shot dead by two motorcyclists as he was motoring towards Mr. Arcadi's home.

This French article translated into English claims: The report, citing a New York journalist and confidential sources, shows that the decision to kill Rizzuto did not require approval of the Bonanno family in New York as many have suggested. The decision would come from Hamilton, Ontario where three Calabrian families share the power, Papalio the Luppino and Musitano.

These clans could ally with Calabrian already well established in Quebec, as Luigi D'Amico, of Granby, who would do business with the Hells Angels Sherbrooke and Francesco Del Balso, a specialist in money laundering.

Sources also assume that Francesco ACARD, a close Rizzuto might change sides. "Everything is possible, says John Galianos. We saw the Rock Machine to join the Hells Angels." (Must be referring to Mom Boucher's old friend Salvatore Cazzetta who crossed over to become the President of the Montreal Hells Angels)

To make a long story short, the kidnapping of Nicola Varacalli Halloween 2005 was pivotal. The Hells Angels were behind it. They were blackmailing the Rizzuto family. They said they were ready to cut off their head and were ready to bring them a war like in Iraq. That tension increased in 2006 with the retaliatory murders of Charles Huneault and Domenico Macri. Mon Dieu! I may be crazy but the Hells Angels are clearly at the root of our drug and organized crime violence in Canada.

Drug Violence in Prince George

With all the unending drug convictions tied to the Hells Angels and their puppet club associates, it is very clear that drug trafficking is the Hells Angels primary business. That and prostitution of course. I will remind you that at first they kept lying to us claiming they aren't involved in drugs. That has proven to be a lie.

We've talked about the shell game and how the Hells Angels keep creating a maze of puppet clubs to hide their involvement in drug trafficking. In the Quebec biker war, it was no different. The Rock Machine were the rivals and the Rockers were the puppets who sold drugs for the Hells Angels. Then Mom Boucher, the white supremacist, made Greg Wooley a member of the Rockers and got him to set up his own finger puppet club called the Syndicate. Through Greg Wooley's puppet club, the Hells Angels were able to supply all the Crips in Montreal with cocaine.

On the West coast it all became clear in Prince George. The police claimed that the Hells Angels ran the drug trade in Prince George and they denied it. Publicly that is. What they said in private was a very different matter. First they established the Renegades who were a puppet club for the Hells Angels in Prince George. After a police agent infiltrated the organization which resulted in drug trafficking convictions tied to the East Vancouver Hells Angels two full patch members were executed to pay the price of sponsoring an informant. Billy Moore and Cedric Smith. They killed their own.

Then the Renegades set up an finger puppet club called the crew who sold crack ultimately for the Hells Angels. They started to get some bad press over cutting off a finger for a $170 drug debt so the Hells Angels did a shell game shuffle. They brought in the Independent Soldiers and the GTS. Both of whom turned out to be working for the Hells Angels. The trial for a GTS gang rape in the Renegades clubhouse in Prince George is still under way.

Yet the most heinous thing the police revealed is the crack shack torture chambers they found in Prince George. They found crack addicts chained in crack shack basements where they were tortured for having drug debts. All that to the Hells Angels patch.

Recently two names from the Crew have resurfaced. Not like Joshua Hendrick who turned up dead in the Fraser River. These two surfaced in the courts. Alia Pierini was convicted of some brutal assaults in Prince George, done to collect drug debts from crack addicts she was supplying.

Police alleged, and the court found, that Pierini and co-accused Scott Payne were part of an organized crime group called The Crew, a puppet club of the notorious Hells Angels. Pierini admits that she was involved in reprehensible acts of violence and extortion, including whacking a crack addict who owed her money with a medieval battle axe. But she says she was never part of any official "crime group." Don't they all. There is no way she would have been allowed to sell crack in Prince George or use violence to collect drug debts, if she was not working for the Hells Angels.

Dustin Lee Pierini was found guilty of brandishing a weapon recently. He was also a member of the Crew. His sister is Boo (Alia) Pierini. So the names have changed but the denial and the drug related violence remains the same. Boo reminds me of Joanna Larson from the Surrey House of Horrors. We need to remember that it's the Hells Angels who are ultimately responsible for this extreme drug related violence.

2004 Saskatoon killing tied to the Hells Angels

Two Calgary men who are charged in the 2004 death of a Saskatchewan man appeared in court on Monday, as new details emerge in the case. Neil Yakimchuk and Kennith Tingle appeared in court on Monday, after they were charged last week with first-degree murder in the shooting death of Isho Hana, 34.

Hana was chased down and shot in the middle of Preston Avenue one night in April 2004, in what police at the time described as a contract killing. At the time of his death, Hana was out on bail, waiting to stand trial for selling cocaine, ecstasy and steroids, CBC News has learned.

Police allege that Tingle and Yakimchuk, both of whom are from Saskatchewan, were living in Calgary when they were ordered to come back and kill Hana. At Hana's funeral, local members of the Hells Angels came wearing their full colours to pay their respects.

Sources told CBC News that Hana was caught up in a drug turf war that featured the Hells Angels, the Terror Squad, and an Asian gang from Calgary that was trying to establish a presence in Saskatoon. Yakimchuk and Tingle were hired by the Asian gang to kill Hana, according to the sources.

Possible but how many times have the Hells Angels shown up at a funeral they were the prime suspects in contracting the murder? Rusty Hall is one that comes to mind. Duane Meyer is another. Either way, the whole point is Isho Hana was a cocaine dealer. Hells Angels attended his funeral. He was shot dead by rival drug dealers in a drug turf war in Saskatoon that involved the Hells Angels and some rivals.

It is clear that the Hells Angels primary business is not riding motorcycles. It is drug trafficking and using violence to maintain a control on the drug trade.

Citizens spark smart-meter protest

Saltspring Islanders are organizing to stop B.C. Hydro smart meters from being installed on their homes. One thing to look for in the New Year is the next campaign to oppose the not so Smart Meters that let Big Brother monitor everything you do and sell that information to whoever they want. Health concerns do exist but the huge concern is the over reaching breach of privacy and surveillance.

We also need to remember the insane cost of changing all the existing meters over instead of just using them in new construction units. We also need to remember the huge debt BC Hydro keeps deferring and how it got there. It got there because Christy Clark's Liberals privatized the companies that BC Hydro buys it's power from at inflated rates. The private companies are mandated to make a profit and are ripping us off. Thus creating yet another manufactured emergency with BC Hydro's artificially created ballooning debt. Power should be public.

The Gingrich who stole Christmas

The Vancouver Province ran an interesting article about Newt Gingrich today. The title was 'Serial adulterer' Newt dodges a bullet. Most flawed candidate is leading campaign's most charmed existence. In the article Sheldon Alberts asks a valid question:

"Should voters consider marital fidelity when making their choices for president?" Of course they should. The guy is referred to as a Serial adulterer. What kind of poster boy for the religious right is that?

"If you will cheat on your wife, if you will cheat on your spouse, then why wouldn't you cheat on your business partner, or why wouldn't you cheat on anybody, for that matter?" Texas Gov. Rick Perry said during Saturday's Republican debate in Iowa.

"I think character is obviously very important," added Texas Rep. Ron Paul. "I think it should show through in the way we live, and I think it should show through in your marriage." Video: You're a mean one, Newt Gingrich.

It's tragic that the Shadow government can't accept a real candidate like Ron Paul or Mitt Romney. After realizing the people aren't gullible enough to vote for out right idiots like Sarah Palin or Donald Trump, now they have to sink deep into the cess pool and find an immoral leader they can control. It's tragic really.

Mitt Romney said that Newt Gingrich should pay back the $1.6 million he took in fees for advising Freddie Mac. No kidding. This kind of corrupt politics is what has created the manufactured emergency that fraudulently stole tax payers bailouts and put the United States into the deepest deficit in recorded history.

Meanwhile back at the ranch, I noticed two books for sale locally. One by Bill Clinton Back to Work and the other by his partner in crime George Bush Decision points. These two scoundrels are con men. It all centres on Men Arkansas and the arms dealing, drug smuggling and the money laundering that lead to the BCCI collapse. George Bush talks about his drinking problem. That's the least of his worries when you compare that with the unlawful invasion of Iraq based on a lie which his other partner in crime, Dick Cheney financially profited from. If reminds me of Pink's song Dear Mr. President. You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine.

I totally support religious freedom. I totally believe people can change. I also believe a lot of people out there are con artists pimping the church for their own personal gain and it is truly tragic how gullible the kind hearted public is when the snake oil salesman comes knocking at the door for forgiveness. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Nicola Varacalli arrested

Speaking of Nicola Varacalli, well we haven't yet but we will get to him, he was recently arrested with three other men described by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration as part of a “multimillion dollar drug operation” charged in the U.S., along with six other people, with conspiring to possess and distribute more than 1,000 pounds of marijuana. Most of the same people, including Varacalli, are also charged with transferring money made from marijuana trafficking back to Canada.

Nicola Varacalli was kidnapped and held against his will in 2005 for more than a month during a violent dispute between alleged marijuana smugglers and the Mafia in Montreal. Gee I wonder who the biggest marijuana smugglers are in the country that trade it for cocaine in the States? That is this year's Christmas Epiphany. Coming soon.

Salvatore Montagna murder

A blog reader sent me this link to a New York Post article about Salvatore Montagna's murder. Ya gotta love New York: Mob boss gets "iced." He was "whacked" yesterday. SNOW JOB: Sal the Ironworker Montagna is a frozen "stiff."

I will point out that I never posted pictures of Larry Amero when he was shot lying on the ground nor would I post pictures of a dead body of a mobster murdered. The new development in the case is that the New York Paper quotes the Montreal Gazette and states Montagna was shot once during a struggle in Ile Vaudry, a working-class neighborhood on a small island about 30 miles north of Montreal.

But the mortally wounded Montagna jumped into the freezing Assomption River, and swam 30 feet across to the other shore, where he was found around 10 a.m. by emergency responders. Turns out he was in the home of convicted cocaine dealer Jack Arthur Simpson. For generations New York has been the center of the universe for the mafia. I find it amazing how closely tied to it Canada is and to you know who.

Big Brother is Watching System of a Down

I sure found some interesting things for my Christmas Epiphany this year. The thing is, while I was researching it my computer had an intrusion attempt and my newly updated spyware removed a Trojan. Only it didn't get all of it and it crashed my whole system. Big Brother is clearly watching. That was well beyond the corporate spies and their hack jobs. This was way beyond their league. The thing is, crashing my computer doesn't stop the blog. I can just use another computer. There's nothing on my hard drive that isn't saved somewhere else. It's all upstairs. Once I find something I can remember the names and places and just Google it again.

I sure found some interesting things reading through some English translations of some French papers about the Rizzuto family and their enemies. It clearly confirms my previous suspicions. Last year my Christmas Epiphany talked about the Vancouver Christmas of 1995. This year it will talk about how that ties in with the Montreal Halloween of 2005 and the present Rizzuto murders in 2011.

From the heart of Vancouver's gang war to the heart of the Montreal mafia. From Vancouver to Montreal heart to heart, je me souviens. Stay tuned. Truth crushed to the earth will rise again. Before I get into this year's Christmas Epiphany, let's set the stage and talk about the new developments in the Salvatore Montagna murder.

Former Hells Angel fights deportation

Well this is refreshing. Finally a Hells Angel gets sent back to where he came from - Scotland. Although the case is peculiar in that he doesn't have a criminal record, he joined the Toronto chapter of the Hells Angels and rose to become a Sergeant at Arms and then president of Hells Angels Ontario Corp., in which he acted as treasurer for 10 chapters over a seven-year span. Stables joined the gang in 2000 and "quit" in 2009. He was president of the corporation that was collecting drug money. Treasurer for 10 chapters must have included Niagara. As we speak Hamilton is trying to take over the drug trade in New Brunswick.

Stables claim the treasurer role included picking up dues from members and depositing the funds into an account. His immigration problems began in 2006 after he was found by officers of the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) carrying gang paraphernalia and phone numbers written on a business card as he arrived at Vancouver airport from a MMA tournament in Asia.

He was clearly an enforcer for a criminal organization. That status has been well documented in the Ontario courts because of the numerous drug related convictions involving the Hells angels there. The Hells Angels infiltration of MMA has become a real problem as well.

“Clearly, the framers of the Charter [of Rights] could not have intended that the applicant’s membership in the Hells Angels could be protected through his freedom of association and expression, despite the overwhelming criminal history of the organization.”

I agree. The freedom of association does not include the freedom to belong to a criminal organization. We just have to be careful how the police define criminal organization. The Hells Angels have a long list of drug convictions. It has been well documented that they use extreme violence to obtain and maintain control of the drug trade. That has clearly been established.

Women not Wanted in the RCMP

After my "get to the point" post about the latest RCMP harassment charges by a female officer in Surrey, one reader sent me a link to another case involving Sherry Benson-Podolchuk who wrote a book about her experiences in the RCMP entitled Women not Wanted.

I'll admit the situation is out of control. Bob Paulson has his hands full in turning the tide of arrogance and abuse within the force. He now claims women should have a greater role in RCMP leadership. True but just not any women. Women who are competent at the job. No doubt there are many. We just don't need the status quoe to recruit a handful of women to do their dirty work for them like Barbara George did.

Someone else sent in an article about two Manitoba Mounties convicted of beating a handcuffed prisoner. They illegally arresting an innocent man, beat him and then jointly tried to make him look bad in police reports.

This is another example of why the charter of Rights is so important and why the new US National Defense Authorization Act is so bad. In a free society, you need to be charged with a crime before being arrested. You are entitled to speak with a lawyer and have the right to a fair trial. The NDAA removes those requirements and lets the military arrest whoever they want, whenever they want and do whatever they want with them. If that act was passed in Canada, these two Mounties could not have been charged.

It appears that in the Manitoba case, pride was the root of the problem. Schulman convicted the officers of assault in September. He said the two officers “exaggerated” Papineau’s actions in their police notes and reports, not knowing the assault was captured on a security video.

They were outside a Grand Beach bar. The suspect complied and gave the police his id. The suspect admitted to snatching it back from the officer when he was done and started walking back to the bar. The officer then tackled him from behind, arrested him without charge, beat him while handcuffed and held him over night. The guy snatched back his id and the p=officers ego was bruised so he over compensated.

Again I'm going to say to fix the problem we need to begin at the beginning. We need to change Depot. We don't need to make it any easier. We just need to clean it up and get rid of the abuse. Sure officers face abuse on the streets. That doesn't mean they need to face it in the office as well. We need to empower officers to withstand abuse by building their self esteem not by teaching them abuse is acceptable and you need to abuse new recruits to teach them a lesson.

Recently, Ian Atkins, a retired superintendent was on The Fifth Estate and interviewed about a RCMP officer accused of assaulting and sexually harassing four female colleagues in the late 1990s. The female victims were also on the televised episode.
