Kelowna Hells Angel gets five years

Castanet is reporting that Kelowna Hells Angel Joseph Bruce Skreptak and his associate Cory Montemurro were sentenced to five years in prison for numerous weapons offenses from back in 2010. Unlce Joe was pretty proud of himself and gave his supporters a big thumbs up in court. If that guy had half a brain he would be dangerous. I wonder why that grow was abandoned?

Robert Widdifield's extortion charges

Last month we reported that Nanaimo Hells Angel Robert Widdifield was convicted of theft and extortion. Well here's a court document a blog reader sent in that describes what happened.

Widdifield's co accused was another full patch Hells Angel Rajinder Singh Sandhu, which is one of the first brown guys we've heard of getting their patch. Normally the HAs are very racist and just use Indo Canadains like Randy Naicker or Rob Sidhu who kiss their ass for puppet clubs to sell drugs but will never give one a real patch. This case is a clear exception.

The decision states that the Crown's allegation, is that the defendants hatched a plot to strong‑arm the complainant into handing over money and property to which they had no right or lawful claim, including a 37‑foot Bayliner yacht called Dream Chaser, which was taken from the complainant and sold by Sandhu.

Widdifield is a founding member of the Nanaimo Hells Angels. Before that he apparently belonged to the Satan's Angels. The Vancouver chapter of which was highlighted in the book the Devil's Butler which I referred to in depth in chapter seven of my eBook. Sandhu has been a full patch member of the Nanaimo Hells Angels for 15 years.

According to the complainant, he and Sandu worked together in the drug trafficking business. The complainant is not a member of the Hells Angels, but he has a long association with it through Widdifield. For many years prior to this incident, the two men maintained a close friendship. Widdifield was the best man at the complainant's wedding. They were involved in a succession of businesses together, including a concrete‑pouring company, a small manufacturing plant that produced a machine called the Big Red Shredder, and a public house and surrounding acreage in Qualicum Bay called the Crown & Anchor. In 2007 they went their separate ways.

There was an old $62,000 debt from the early /90's from a person called Kelly Crooks. There is no mention if he was ever involved with he HAs. He paid $500 a month for six years until Kelly Crooks moved away with no forwarding address. He had paid about half the money back with no interest. In early 2000 an independent debt collector contacted him claiming he owned the debt and the complainant said he would not deal with him just the person he owed the money to. Nothing was heard about it until 2010 when Sandu and the Hells Angels got involved who raised the amount owing to $100,000.00.

The complainant has always denied that he used the Club's name in his dealings with Crooks, but he also knew that the Club sometimes issued “stupid taxes” of this sort and that denying the supposed underlying offence would be useless. He knew from the beginning that the matter was serious and that if dire consequences were to be avoided, he was going to have to pay up. He did not have the ready cash to satisfy the Club's demands, but he had the Bayliner yacht Dream Catcher purchased in 2007 for $137,500. He handed over the boat and thought he was square with the club. Until they wanted more. After handing over the boat they said he now owed $160,000. This is how the Hells Angels do business. They are liars, cheats and thieves.

With friends like these, who needs enemies? Sandhu and the complainant used to sell drugs together for the Hells Angels. Widdifield and the complainant were old friends. They were in many business endeavors together. Widdifield was the complainant's best man at his wedding. Until years later he saw the opportunity to shaft him and rip him off. Obviously David Giles isn't the only POS in that organization. They all are. They are all out for themselves to make money and shaft everyone else just like how Spike shafted Ernie. No L&R there. Just b*tches and thieves.

Granby Murder

MSN News is reporting that "Provincial police say two bodies found in the trunk of a car in Mascouche could be those of a missing man and woman who managed a strip club in St-Hyacinthe. Martin Bélair, 37, and Nancy Beaulieu, 41, were last seen Tuesday, according to family members who reported to the Sûreté du Québec that they had reasons to fear for the pair’s safety. Bélair owned the Cabaret Flamingo, an erotic bar in St-Hyacinthe, according to Quebec’s business registry, while Beaulieu was the manager there. SQ spokesperson Christine Coulombe said the bodies were discovered after municipal police in Mascouche noticed a vehicle parked on the town’s avenue de la Gare. She could not confirm if it was the white Sierra. Coulombe said an autopsy will be performed Monday in Montreal to confirm the victims’ identities."

Lawsuits mount over Surrey's New City Hall

The Surrey Leader is reporting that "Building Surrey’s new city hall was a 'nightmare for every party involved,' according to a contractor about to join a host of others suing the city and its general contractor." So the slimy contractors all milked it for what it's worth and all went over budget. Big surprise. That ridiculous ivory tower was a colossal waste of tax dollars.

Only in Surrey

The Vancouver Province reported on a controversial facebook page that has been posting photos of crime and drug use from around Surrey for the past year. I'm not sure why it's considered controversial since that is exactly what Dianne Watts promised to do in her crime prevention coalition when she was first elected but never did. She promised to create a website that highlighted crime in Surrey but never did. Now some civilian, (Not me this time) does it and they complain about it. How about highlighting crime and dealing with it like you initially promised? Wouldn't that be a novel idea. This is the actual page on facebook.

Cocaine in the UFC

Recently it was reported that UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones tested positive for cocaine. Which is fine because cocaine isn't a banned substance in the UFC, only pot is. WTF. Pat Healey tested positive for pot and lost all his bonus money. He wasn't under the influence of pot it was just in his system. Pot isn't a performance enhancer.

Canadian Taxpayers Federation pushes No side in Transit Referendum

The Vancouver Province reported that the Canadian Taxpayers Federation is pushing the no vote in the Transit Referendum which proposes to raise sales tax to fund transit above and beyond the billion dollar a year gas tax they already burn annually.

In the article, Jordan Bateman from the Canadian Taxpayers Federation pointed out that metro bus drivers pushed a “did-not-pay-fare” button on their buses more than 2.7 million times in 2013. I have also raised this very concern as well as the fact that giving the contract for the Evergreen line to SNCL was a criminal act.

Canadian Taxpayers Federation issues 2015 calendar of ‘wasteful’ TransLink spending. No private company would be allowed to operate if they were a billions dollars over budget every year and asked for more money from tax payers on top of that. No Translink Tax web site.

Sarkozy and the Karachi affair

Another important story of 2014 was Sarkozy's involvement in the Karachi affair. Sarkozy was accused of getting political kickbacks from an arms deal with Pakistan. When the deal was cancelled and his kickbacks were cut off he was accused of helping organize a terrorist bombing in Pakistan that killed French engineers. After finally getting rid of that dirty dog, France went from one extreme to the other. They got rid of a right wing criminal and elected a left wing socialist. It seems very hard to find a balance between the extremes in today's world.

Pickton Publication Ban Lifted

Another big story of 2014 was the Janice Edwards' testimony at the Pickton Trial. The publication ban on the Pickton trial ended when his appeal had been heard. That's why Stevie Cameron was able to publish her book which revealed details in the trial back in 2010. In her book she cited the cross examination of Diane Rock's friend Janice Edwards which revealed some heart wrenching details of the Diane Rock story. In 2014 I was able to obtain a copy of the court transcript and blogged about it. This is a pdf of the actual court transcript.

The breakthrough in the Dianne Rock story is the claim that she was gang raped on the Pickton Farm before she was found and murdered there. Gang raped would implicate more than one suspect. Janice Edwards was not a drug addict. She was Dianne Rock's friend who picked Dianne up from a gas station hysterical and bleeding after she was gang raped. Janice Edwards saw the physical evidence of a serious assault.

This is the reason why the judge gave instructions to the jury that they could convict Robert Pickton of all those murders even though there may have been others involved. The judge went so far as to say they could convict Robert Pickton even if he wasn't the main suspect, just an active participant I.E. disposed of the bodies. We all knew the judge gave those shocking instructions to the jury but until the publication ban was lifted we never knew why.

The other tragic twist is the claim that Dianne Rock was off the drugs. Janice Edwards testified that it was Dianne's abusive boyfriend, a longshoreman named Vince McMurchy who sold drugs and got her addicted to crack. Dianne Rock was not a sex trade worker before she met Vince. She only became a sex trade worker towards the end of her life to pay for the drugs. Longshoremen make a good wage. Selling crack and human trafficking is predatory greed.
