Alberta lawyer goes to jail for mortgage fraud
The Edmonton Sun is reporting that "a 'rogue' lawyer who was the complicit 'lapdog' of the ringleader of a $6 million Alberta mortgage fraud was put behind bars Friday for his part in the financial crime. Roy Elander, 65, was sentenced to 3-1/2 years in prison and ordered to pay $426,000 in restitution after earlier being convicted of 14 counts of fraud over $5,000. The judge ruled Elander was “instrumental” in facilitating the central Alberta mortgage fraud - orchestrated by Allan MacMullin - while acting as a lawyer for both the financial institutions involved and the straw buyers. "
The Edmonton Sun previously reported that the actual ringleader, Allan MacMullin, was given a 10 year sentence and ordered to pay more than $1 million in restitution to two financial institutions and various individual straw buyers after earlier being convicted of 38 counts of fraud over $5,000.
Another case of Mortgage Fraud in Alberta involved more than 100 people including Devinder Shory, Stephen Harper's Conservative MP for Calgary Northeast. CBC reported that the Bank of Montreal settled out of court with all but a handful of the 160 people involved after the insurance fund for lawyers, the Alberta Lawyers Insurance Association (ALIA) agreed to pay $9.2 million to BMO to settle the case on behalf of all 17 lawyers named in the suit which stopped the RCMP's criminal investigation dead in it's tracks.
Calgary Hells Angel associate Ali El-Sayed was convicted of being a "ringleader" of another mortgage fraud in Alberta. Ken LeBlanc and Ali El-Sayed's other associate Jahan Meshkati was shot dead in BC last year. Nobody likes a scammer.

Reno Lee murder
Police aren't saying exactly how or when Reno Lee was murdered but they are saying they found Lee's body north of Balcarres, Saskatchewan which is north west of Regina and the investigation began on April 23. On May 15th CJME reported that the Regina Police Service announced John Earl Desjarlais, 30, has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of Reno Lee.
CJME is also reporting that Four people are charged with first-degree murder: 31-year-old Daniel Theodore, 21-year-old Andrew Michael Bellegarde, 30-year-old Bronson Gordon, and Desjarlais. Desjarlais was already facing charges of kidnapping and aggravated assault in connection to Lee's death. Joni Victoria Reed, 29, has been charged with being an accessory after the fact to murder. CTV is reporting that 30-year-old Bronson Chad Gordon of Regina was arrested in Edmonton. CTV posted the above picture of Bronson who is one of the four men charged in Reno Lee's murder.

Newfoundland drug bust tied to Whiterock
BC Local News is reporting that "A White Rock man has been arrested on the East Coast in connection with one of the biggest drug busts in Newfoundland and Labrador’s history. Arlen Nathan Hodge was due to appear in Newfoundland Provincial Court today, on drug-related charges." 10 kilograms of cocaine, 300 pounds of marijuana, two kilograms of pure MDMA and two kilograms of a substance known as ‘shatter’, which is a chemical derived from marijuana were seized." The Telegram has posted pictures of the suspect.
46 Pharmacies confronted for abuses to the methadone program
Well this is a small step forward. The Surrey Leader is reporting that "The B.C. government intends to effectively shut down as many as 46 Lower Mainland pharmacies by excluding them from the PharmaCare program in the wake of a review that flagged various abuses. Letters have gone out to the pharmacies giving them three weeks to argue why they shouldn't be denied the ability to bill the publicly funded drug plan effective next month."
"A regulatory change that took effect in December now allows the ministry to refuse to do business with pharmacies with a history of problematic business and billing practices, and forces them to disclose their ownership, management and track record."
At least we're starting to talk about some of the many abuses in that system. Slum Lord Greg Woolsey brought his DTES scam to Surrey. We was one of the slum lords that forced tenants to get their methadone prescriptions filled though him. He was running bogus recovery homes in Newton. They were flop houses where addicts could do drugs and use tax paid methadone.
This recent article is referring to scams the actual pharmacies pull. Yet the biggest and most costly scam of all involves the doctors over prescribing it in the first place. The idea of the methadone program is to help addicts get off of heroin. The purpose of the methadone program is not to create a million addicts to methadone. The biggest problem is the fact that it is VERY rare for anyone to be weened off methadone once they're on the program. This means doctors, pharmacists and drug companies and making a huge amount of money by scamming tax dollars.
Another scam is the fact that recovery homes like the John Volken Academy that actually teach addicts life skills, give them a job and help them get off drugs instead of turning them into methadone addicts can't get government sponsorship. This perpetuates the tax fraud.
The review found methadone costs covered by PharmaCare have climbed by an average of 7.6 per cent a year since 2001 to nearly $44 million, making it the program's second-highest drug cost." What about all the drugs seniors need but can't get coverage for? This pharmaceutical scam is bleeding our system dry. It's like you can't get an MRI but you can get free heroin at the Not very Safe Injection site. That is messed up.

Afghanistan heroin bust
This one's kind of baffling. There was a big song and dance patting everyone on the back for breaking up a heroin ring that was bringing heroin into Canada from Afghanistan. 37 kilos of heroin were seized. That is a fair amount and a job well done. Yet it's all so conflicted.
After all this was heroin coming in from Afghanistan. Insp. Cal Chrustie, a spokesman for the RCMP’s Federal Serious and Organized Crime unit (FSOC), told reporters “The feedback we’ve received recently is we haven’t seen a number of shipments coming into Canada of Afghan heroin recently.” That's the problem right there. Afghanistan supplies 92 per cent of the world’s opium.
In 2001 the Taliban had brought opium production to a grinding halt. After the allied invasion Afghanistan once again became the world's largest producers of opium. So if Afghanistan is the largest producers of opium in the world, why aren't we seeing many shipments coming into Canada? Are we not looking for them? Would that interfere with our allies who are guarding, protecting and promoting the opium trade in Afghanistan? Just like in Vietnam.
US Soldiers are protecting the opium crops. That is the biggest con of the Brave New World. They claim that if we don't do it the Taliban will. Yet that is a lie because the Taliban were the ones that brought opium production to a grinding halt. We are the ones that reversed that trend.
This drug ring was sure taking a round about route to get to Canada. It wasn't coming from China like all the huge shipments. The Vancouver Province reported that "Shipments originating in Afghanistan traveled primarily by air - either on people’s bodies or in their luggage - through Johannesburg and Dar es Salaam, then to Brussels and on to Canada. The shipments were then distributed to Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver." Not like the half ton shipments coming here from China. Sounds more like a sting operation then the disruption of a real network.

The Lost Cause
Fighting organized crime isn't a lost cause as in a waste of time. It's a lost cause as in something we don't do any more. On the web site I've itemized six different scenarios where as soon as a police task force found organized crime a government body shut down that police task force. The pattern is clear.
1) The RCMP issued a report showing how bad money laundering was in BC casinos. Instead of dealing with the problem, Rich Coleman and the BC Liberals did away with the RCMP's Integrated Illegal Gaming Enforcement Team.
2) Operation Phoenix was a Regional Task Force's investigation that targeted Hal Porteous and the BC Hells Angels. The RCMP scuttled that operation and prevented it from going to trial. Then disbanded the task force responsible for the investigation. Allen Dalstrom received a $2 million out of court settlement to keep his mouth shut.
3) 2 1/2 tons of cocaine bound for the BC Hells Angels were seized in the Western Wind bust. Richard Barszczewski from the RCMP scuttled that operation and prevented any Hells Angels from being charged.
4) Pat Fogarty issued a ridiculous head up his ass public rant about how the Hells Angels aren't a problem in Kelowna any more it's the other guys we have to worry about. Then the Gang Task Force and the OMGU proved him wrong in every possible way. So what do they do? They get rid of the OMGU and cut back the Gang Task Force putting another political puppet in charge saying everything is OK.
5) Wally Opal shut down the missing women inquiry as soon as the Hells Angels were mentioned and turned it into a panel discussion where he could more easily ban key evidence claiming the mandate of the inquiry was not to find other suspects even though Robert Pickton was convicted based on the fact that he was not the only or main suspect just an active participant.
6) The Port Police were disbanded in 1997 right when the Hells Angles took over the docks in Canada. Are we beginning to see a pattern yet?

A Letter from Joey Verma: The Omerta
Well this is a bizarre twist of fate. Either that or an act of God. I was sent a copy of a letter Joey Verma wrote Blaze from prison. I kid you not. I understand he also wrote Don Lyons. It's sad because murder is clearly a no win situation. No doubt Britney's family misses her very much. She's not there to wish her mother a Happy Mother's Day today. That's gotta hurt. Likewise Joey misses his family especially his daughter. Clearly a no win situation.
In the letter he claims that he is innocent and is doing someone else's life sentence. He makes reference to giving up his life and family at 29 years old for the Omerta.
The Urban Dictionary states: "Key to the concept of Omerta is that any member of the organization must maintain absolute silence when questioned by law enforcement on the subject of alleged illegal activities by other members of the organization. This can result in one member "taking the fall" for others, facing criminal contempt of court charges or even taking sole responsibility for a crime that others committed. He does this with the assurance that he and his family will be supported by the organization during and after his imprisonment."
Obviously he could just be talking sh*t trying to help his appeal. Yet there is a much bigger picture that is becoming much more clear to me over the last few months. I attended parts of the trial. I saw the pictures that showed the expression of pain on Britney's face when they found her dead body. I commented at the time I wasn't sure which was worse. The pain from being shot in the back with shot gun slugs or the pain of being betrayed by someone she genuinely cared about and trusted. I was also present during the lengthy cross examination of Britney's brother.
I have a huge amount of respect for Britney's brother. The lawyer grilled him for hours about his past trying to drag him through the mud. Yet he was firm and undaunted. He was totally honest about his past struggles with addiction. The murder of his sister made it worse. Yet he rose above all that and got clean to testify at his sisters murder trial. It was the epitome of courage.
He said he was cautious of Joey from the beginning and said to Britney are you sure you can trust this guy? She was firm and said oh yes we can trust him. He admitted that Britney was in a relationship with Joey. Something others had previously said but I didn't believe. Until I saw the text messages that were produced in court. "I'll be right there hun." Very sad. After her clone show was busted she had no income and was desperate to make a big deal of a large amount of high grade pot so they would have some money to live off of. The profit margin on the deal was very small. She had not ratted out her own clone show. That bust put her in a bad financial situation.
So she was putting together a large amount of high grade pot to get some money to pay some bills. Joey was involved with that deal. Britney's brother stated how he expressed his concern at the time about how the deal was going to go down. "You're going out in the bush to shoot guns while the buyers come to pick up the pot?" He thought that was very strange since during a drug deal you're trying to not attract attention. Others claimed anyone who knew Joey wouldn't have thought twice about it because Joey was a hunter.
Britney's brother said he was very concerned when his sister hadn't returned from the drug deal in the bush just off the road to Big White. He found one of her cell phones and found Joey's number. He called it and said Where's my sister?! Joey said she never showed up and her brother called him a f*cking liar. There was a huge amount of evidence that implicated Joey. He was involved in her murder. There was no error in interpretation of the law and no grounds for an appeal. The only question that remains is did he have an accomplice that was also directly involved? At this point I clearly believe he did which puts the whole false motive under question.
I do not believe Joey killed Britney to rip her off to repay a debt to the Kelowna Hells Angels. He was selling drugs for the Hells Angels while in prison. He was making them money. Killing Britney and taking the profit from her last deal would not have been enough to pay off any debt. It was barely enough for her to live off of. I believe the Kelowna Hells Angels were involved alright. I believe it was a hired hit for Britney's manufactured debt she was so desperate to repay.
This Mother's Day I want to pay special tribute to Britney Irving. A young woman from Kelowna who was robbed of her chance at becoming a mother in this life because she was shot in the back and murdered. I have reason to believe Blaze was directly involved in her murder along with Joey. Many reasons. Joey didn't rip her off. He was paying for her hotel after the clone show bust. He said he didn't have a choice and that he had to do it. That part I do believe. Peace.

More Hells Angels plead guilty to murder
The Montreal Gazette is reporting that Fourteen Hells Angels and associates have avoided a trial set to begin next week by pleading guilty to taking part in a general conspiracy to murder rival drug dealers in Quebec over an eight-year period. The Hells Angels there contributed a portion of their drug profits into a fund to murder rival drug dealers.
Besides the guilty pleas, the prosecution obtained the court’s permission on Thursday to destroy two of the gang’s bunkers - one in Trois-Rivières and another near Quebec City - which were significant symbols of the biker gang’s defiance.

City applies for injunction against Devil's Army Clubhouse
Well this comes as no surprise. The Vancouver Province is reporting that so many residents complained to City Hall about the new Devil's Army clubhouse in their neighborhood near a school that City Hall applied to the courts for an injunction to get rid of it for bylaw infractions.
That huge gay pride parade and house warming the Hells Angles had for them sure wasn't very bright. How is that not going to piss off the whole neighborhood? It's like the saying pride cometh before the fall. Their pride has made them stupid. They're supposed to deny that the Devil's Rejects work for them. Instead they all show up in mass for a Village People concert crammed like sardines in the back yard. Right after Jay Hall's murder and the Brandy Sarionder murder / suicide after they forced her out of the business. So much for keeping a low profile.
The Vancouver Province is still referring to it as a Hells Angels clubhouse. Kind of hard for them to dispute that after their Gay Pride parade there. The Hells Angels in BC used to be a lot smarter. They must be using too much of their own product. They are getting reckless and stupid.
Update: The Times Colonist is reporting that the owner of the property is trying to sell it while Langford Mayor Stew Young said the offer to sell does not affect legal action the City of Langford has taken against the owner, Pacific Coast Land Co. “We can’t go after anyone but the actual owner,” Young said. Langford’s B.C. Supreme Court claim, filed May 1, calls on the owner and its tenants to stop using the space as a clubhouse, citing zoning and bylaw infringements. Pacific Coast Land’s 2014 annual report lists Harald Skadberg as its president and Jan Egil Gulbrandsen as its secretary-treasurer.
Earlier the Vancouver Province reported that the property was owned by a prominent Christian businessman. Corporate records say officers of Pacific Coast Land Company Inc. include prominent Victoria businessman Jan Egil Gulbrandsen, a Norwegian investor who co-founded a large retail franchise. Gulbrandsen is also director of Grace Camp Ministries, a summer Bible camp in Victoria. His online bio says: “Jan Egil is a businessman whose life has been impacted by the reality of God’s grace. He enjoys freedom in Christ and is thrilled to see the true gospel revealed to others.”
Somewhat hypocritical for him to support a Hells Angels puppet club called the Devil's army who is boldly opposing everything Christianity stands for. Sounds like he belongs to the same church Tony Terezakis belongs to. It's called the church of the devil. By their fruits ye shall know them. Maybe they'll change the name of the clubhouse to Piggy's Palace.
CFAX is reporting that the 41 signs have come down but that doesn't mean anything else has changed. The Goldtream Gazette is confirming the 41 sign has been taken down and that the city is awaiting a response from the property owner regarding the court application.

Shots fired in Surrey again - Update
The Surrey Leader is reporting that there was another drive by shooting in Surrey this morning that resulted in a car crash. "Surrey RCMP say they received several 911 calls reporting shots being fired about about 2:25 a.m. in the neighbourhood near 68 Avenue between 121 and 124 Streets. When police arrived, a dark-coloured Chevrolet sedan had crashed into a rock post. According to Mounties, witnesses reported seeing a vehicle stopped at 124 Street and 68 Avenue, when a gold-coloured car pulled up beside it and fired shots toward it."
"The Chevrolet drove westbound on 68 Avenue with the gold car in pursuit. The first vehicle then lost control at 121 Street, striking a post, and the gold car again fired shots at the Chevrolet. The driver of the crashed vehicle fled on foot and the gold car sped away. No one was injured in the incident and police say the driver of the victim vehicle is a Surrey man in his 20s who is familiar to them."
No doubt brain surgeon Bill Fordy will post a picture of the person being shot at again because he isn't cooperating with police. That'll solve the problem. Not. The only thing that will solve the problem is if Bill Fordy transfers out of Surrey and the police start arresting the crack dealers who are dealing in public but they refuse to arrest. It's that simple. Only in New York you say? Pity.
Just for the record, there is not a snowball's chance in Hell the Somalians in Calgary are taking on the Hells Angels in Surrey. Not a chance. As I said before the Somalian population in Surrey is tiny compared to the Asian, Caucasian and South Asian community. Bill Fordy has no idea of what he's talking about. He's just repeating a press release the new spin doctor gave him to read.
In Calgary it was the FOB and the FK that were fighting each other. The Hells Angels supplied the FOB through the Independent Soldiers while the UN supplied the FK. All these local shooting started when Skeeter's brother was found dead in Surrey. The prime suspect in that murder was indeed a drug dealer from Calgary. Only he wasn't Somalian and he worked for the FOB who were Hells Angels associates.
In 2012 when the brown drug dealers were being shot in Surrey it was the Hells Angels. After Larry Amero and Jonathon Bacon were shot in Kelowna the Hells Angels had the Duhre Dhak group all shot up. However they still exist. The Hells Angels still want them eliminated and will use whatever group it takes to get that job done to put them out of business. Just like Brandy.
Obviously the Hells Angels aren't directly involved because if they were there would be dead bodies not just drive by shootings. Like how they hired Mickie (Phil) Smith to kill Paul Percy Soluk at a crack house in Surrey back in 1999. The Hells Angels have been involved in the Surrey drug trade since the Surrey House of Horrors. Yet it's clear the Hells Angels are indirectly involved because they have to be supplying one of the groups just like they were indirectly responsible for all the violence in Calgary between the FOB and the FK because they were supplying the FOB.
Update: The Peace Arch News is reporting that three people were taken to the hospital after a shooting in Whalley 5:30 AM Friday morning.
Second update: The Vancouver Sun is reporting that Surrey RCMP is currently investigating a "suspicious death” at a home at 94th Ave and 140th St. Police were called out to the home Sunday morning, discovering the body of a female.
