Kelowna Independent Soldier gets four years for illegal firearms

Castanet is reporting that a 42-year-old Kelowna man has been sentenced to four years in prison after he was found in possession of illegal firearms and ammunition. RCMP consider Vincent Lewis Timpany to be a long-time gang associate and allied with the Independent Soldiers. Police seized a 9mm Glock, a .38 calibre Smith and Wesson, a 12 gauge shotgun and three over-capacity magazines. At the time of his arrest he was already prohibited from possessing any guns or ammunition. Let's not forget who the Independent Soldiers work for. Global picked up on the story.

Former Montreal cop sentenced to 8 years for selling secrets to Hells Angels

Global and CTV are both reporting that Benoit Roberge, an ex-Montreal police officer has been handed an eight-year prison term for selling sensitive information to the Hells Angels. No word on any charges against a second officer Roberge said worked with him or his claims that he was not going down alone which would imply the problem was bigger than just one person.

No word on why René Charlebois mysteriously committed suicide after escaping prison in Quebec. He was the Hells Angel that blew the whistle on Benoit Roberge. After his "suicide" several incriminating video tapes were found. At least Quebec is dealing with the problem with corruption investigations not like the EPS or us here in BC. Everything here is business as usual. No investigation means no corruption so they claim.

Saskatoon Hells Angel stands trial for death threats

CBC is reporting that Saskatoon Hells Angel Jesse Bitz will stand trial in October for uttering threats. Bitz is accused of threatening to kill Leonard Banga, the owner of Xtreme Mining and Demolition. The pair had a dispute which led Banga to fire Bitz. That's when the alleged threats took place. Rather amusing how he hides his face after being accused of making death threats.

"Xtreme Mining and Demolition enacted a new hiring policy in the fall of 2013 to prevent individuals with a history of violence and/or involvement in organized crime from working in safety sensitive situations." Three of the Hells Angels fired after the policy change are now threatening legal action while the province of is considering following Manitoba's lead by declaring the Hells Angels a criminal organization. That would certainly make it easier for employers to clean up links to organized crime. Too bad they won't do that with the Longshoremen here.

January of last year four longshoremen were shot at a gathering after allegations of missing pension funds were made like in New York. That was a Jimmy Hoffa trick back in the day.

Another Red Scorpion bust on Vancouver Island

The Victoria News is reporting that a raid by West Shore RCMP and Victoria PD has resulted in cash, guns, bullet-proof vests, over half a kilogram of cocaine, along with heroin being seized in a raid of five houses in Langford and Colwood. The search has led to the arrest of two men, including an alleged gang-related drug dealer.

Wednesday's searches were the culmination of an investigation which has been ongoing since last July and targeted two men, one of which police say has ties to the Red Scorpion gang active in the Lower Mainland. Dezmond White and Abraham McMillan have been arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking.

It's not nearly as much as the 10 kilos of cocaine seized tied to the Nanaimo Hells Angels but it's good to see the pressure being kept on the smaller Hells Angels puppet groups selling drugs on their behalf. As we know the Hells Angels took over the Red Scorpions after the Surrey Six and made them work for them just like the Independent Soldiers.

Sonny Barger plays Lenny the Pimp

Well this is ironic. First of all I don't watch Sons of Anarchy. I think it's an absolutely ridiculous show like Breaking Bad which glorifies crystal meth labs. However, I noticed on Wikipedia that it claims Sonny Barger played Lenny "The Pimp" Janowitz on the TV series Sons of Anarchy. That is ironic indeed since his pal Odis Garrett was convicted of running a prostitution ring for the Hells Angels in San Fransisco called the Love Nest. Barger attended the trial and had him honoured for years on the West Vegas prison lock down page long after Odis was convicted of ordering the murder of Margo Compton and her twin seven year old daughters for testifying against him.

Evidently, Canada isn't the only place the Hells Angels use violence to obtain a monopoly on the drug trade. They have been convicted of trafficking crystal meth in Kentucky, South Carolina and Massachusetts as well. Trent Willet and Greg Domey were both honoured on Hells Angels prison lock down support pages after their trafficking crystal meth convictions.

Doug McCallum claims Surrey's new city hall is a waste of money

The Vancouver Sun is reporting that Surrey's former mayor, Doug McCallum, says the glitzy new city hall is "wasted taxpayers' money." The article quotes him as saying "I don't agree with it. I don't agree with moving it and the costs associated with it. I think it's going to show up in hurting the community in some places, as far as being able to build city facilities, because all the money's been spent here," he said. "When I was involved in council there was often talk (of building a new hall), but we said no."

"We had a good city hall, and we spent a lot of money fixing that up not long ago. So the council at that time was very much against it... City council shouldn't be spending the money, basically, on themselves." McCallum referenced the 2003 renovations to the old city hall, which cost around $9 million. As well, the city spent roughly $1.3 million in renovations in 2007.

The Surrey City Development Corporation was behind the city hall and civic plaza project, and McCallum calls for the corporation to be disbanded, claiming its existence creates a conflict of interest. "A development company where the shareholders are council are in a conflict of interest when it comes before them to vote on it. It's like voting for themselves. It's a huge, huge conflict," McCallum said.

Exactly!!! Let's bring Doug McCallum back! Dianne Watts conned us. She promised us the moon on crime prevention and did the exact opposite. She taxed and spent us to the moon instead while she let drug related crime in Newton and Whalley skyrocket off the charts. When Doug McCallum was mayor the city evicted crack houses onto the street. I saw it. He put pressure on the crack dealers. Dianne Watts has not. End of story. .

Don Quixote Tilting at Windmills

Don Quixote was a fictional character who had these delusions that windmills were monstrous giants and he would charge them like a knight in shining armor thinking he was saving the world from some great evil. The term tilting at Windmills is taken from that novel and means attacking imaginary enemies. Gordon Lightfoot wrote a song about him.

So here I am. Just another crazed lunatic tilting at windmills. Harmless indeed. I'm still amazed at the spam I get claiming that Spike is a nice guy and the Hells Angels are just a motorcycle club. Wrong on both counts. The number of cocaine convictions tied to the Hells Angels is out of control. If you think Spike is a nice guy just ask Ernie Ozolins.

It's rather bizarre when they start sending in their women to spam me with their bullsh*t. You can tell they're women because they are actually intelligent and are trying to appeal to my logic instead of just saying f you agent gay. Yet their appeal concerns me. At this point they are either misinformed or are outright lying. I think it's a little of both.

Years ago Randy Iron's wife and I had a conversation about the Hells Angels. She went on about how the Hells Angels would never be involved with the Pickton Farm. At the time I just agreed to disagree but now there is enough evidence out there to prove that anyone who says that now is simply being dishonest. The Hells Angels had a grow op on site. They were the ones that ran Piggy's Palace not Robert or Dave. Dave Pickton was a Hells Angels associate and knew where the bodies were buried. Robert Pickton was inviting sex trade workers to biker parties on his farm with free booze and free drugs. There's more. Much more.

The number of cocaine convictions tied to the Hells Angels is at this point ridiculous. So please, don't insult my intelligence with all that bullsh*t. It is at this point offensive because it mocks the deaths of people like Bob Roth and Janice Shore. A poor man is better than a liar.

Surrey Barn Grow op fire tied the the Hells Angels

Global is reporting that there was a large barn fire in Surrey yesterday morning that contained a legal grow op. In the printed article it states the owner was collecting $6,000 a month rent from the grow and when he asked for an increase they got angry and turned him down. The day before they were supposed to hand over the keys the barn burned down after the product was harvested.

A blog reader who sent me the story claims they saw the live broadcast on Global. They claimed that in the broadcast they saw, the owner outright said the Legal Medicinal Grow was run by the Hells Angels. That part was omitted from the printed version. May of last year the police busted four grow ops in Mission tied to the Hells Angels. Yo bro I aint making this sh*t up.

The online video admits that in Kelowna last year police raided 7 legal grow ops where Outlaw Motorcycle gear was found. Guess what. There's only one OMG in BC. The online video shows the owner stating the tenants who ran the legal grow said they have Hells Angels behind them.

Jamie Bacon and Person Y

There's been a lot of talk about the testimony of Person Y at the Surrey Six who is referred to as the Crown's star witness. I haven't had time to keep up with the trial but Kim Bolan has been covering it completely. A blog reader was discussing some of the statements Person Y made in court that Kim posted on her Twitter.

Evidently, Person Y was Jamie Bacon's body guard. He would go with Jamie to the gym so Jamie wouldn't get hurt. Person Y claimed that on one occasion, Jamie was upset with Person Y because Jamie and Person X were at a gym and two fat Hells Angels kicked them out. Jamie was upset Person Y wasn't there to protect him. Kinda strange how two young guys on steroids got kicked out of a gym by two old fat HAs but that's beside the point.

Person Y claimed after that he found Spike, the Haney president, alone at a gym and kicked him out. Spike isn't very big. He just has a reputation behind the patch so to speak. Nino, the Sergeant at Arms, isn't very big either. He just hides behind Brian Airth (Bags).



Person Y claims: "At 1 point, Jamie Bacon was enemies with HA, UN and IS." Then admitted "He's made friends with 2 of the 3" meaning the Hells Angels and the IS not the UN obviously. "Y says he knows Riach was in the car when Jon Bacon was killed, so clearly Bacons 'made amends' with Riach, Damien Ryan (the Wolfpack.)" However, we know that Jamie was friends with James Riach before the Surrey Six. James Riach was with the Bacons at the Castle Fun Park meeting in Kevlar before the Surrey Six. Clearly the BRM is passionately trying to deny their involvement in the Surrey Six. Yet we know that Larry Amero was friends with Jonathon Bacon long before the Surrey Six as was James Riach and Randy Naicker.

Here's the deal. One blog reader was pointing out that the Hells Angels operate differently than most other gangs. In the HAs each chapter operates independently. Just because one chapter is enemies with one group doesn't necessarily mean another chapter will be. Hence we had some HAs working with the UN while John Punko was caught on wire saying the UN aren't welcome in BC and they won't do business with anyone who does business with the UN. Punko was obviously upset the UN kicked their ass in Brandy's. That was when Michale Plante got knocked out by K9. John Punko had some jurisdiction in Surrey since Kerry Ryan Renaud was working for him.

We know that at one time the Independent Soldiers were independent. After the Loft Six shooting that all changed. The old leaders that had beef with the HAs were shot or killed off and the new leaders paid their allegiance to the HAs. The HAs took over the IS and made the IS work for them. Case in point, Larry Amero and Randy Naicker. Randy Naicker was also at the Castle fun Park meeting with the Bacons before the Surrey Six. Randy Naicker and James Raich were both present and were representing the IS who at that time were working for the Hells Angels. So this whole wolfpack cubpack thing wasn't really a new allegiance. Wolfpack81 was just Larry Amero's gamer tag on Xbox.

So although a couple of fat HAs kicked Jamie Bacon out of a gym on one occasion, it is clear that the powers that be saw the Bacon Brothers as a means to take over the RS who were working for the UN and make the RS work for the HAs like the IS. After all, if Jamie Bacon was so easily controlled by a couple of fat HAs, he was the perfect puppet for them to have take over the RS.

Obviously Person Y giving Spike a hard time would have won points for him with the UN. However, we know that Spike was supporting the Bacon Brothers after the Surrey Six. That's why his niece was representing him with Larry Amero and James Riach in Kelowna just like his other niece was representing him in the Philippines with James Riach and Barry Espadilla. We know that the Hells Angels were supporting the Bacon brothers before the Surrey Six because Larry Amero was Jonathon's friend and the IS who worked for the HAs were supporting them. It's like the Vernon Greeks. At one point Mike R was giving the Vernon Greeks a hard time until they got official sponsorship from the Calgary chapter which meant Mikey had to back off.

Calgary Hells Angels Grow Op

This is a cold case in more ways than one. Global BC is reporting that it has been 15 years since Paul Resvick was last seen, after he and some friends broke into a home in Dover and stole a substantial amount of marijuana. It turns out that house belonged to the Hells Angels, and it’s believed that just days later he ended up meeting with members of the crime group at the McDonalds in Forest Lawn. [Video]

OK so robbing a Hells Angels grow isn't the brightest thing to do. Yet discipline should be progressive. Put one in his leg or something. All this killing for money has got to stop. It's another documentation linking the Calgary Hells Angels to a grow op. Which is entirely their right. I'm just sayin it is what it is. The family is hoping to recover the body.
