More drugs in rural BC

Penticton Western News is reporting that "A Midway man is in police custody after fleeing on foot from a traffic stop Wednesday afternoon. Shortly after 2 p.m. on Jan. 6 a Kelowna RCMP officer conducted a traffic stop with a black Mercedes SUV in the 2300 block of Hunter Road. The driver of the Mercedes was found to be in breach of his court-ordered, 24-hour curfew related to a conditional sentence order."

The suspect grabbed a duffle bag and fled on foot. After he was apprehended the police found a small quantity of cocaine, heroin and crystal meth packaged for resale, a .22 hand gun and break in tools. Midway is in southern BC near the US border outside Osoyoos.

Gang war in Williams Lake

Today's Vancouver Province was fairly dramatic. The headline read: A town's cry for help: Williams Lake leaders seek resources to deal with deadly street gang war. Last Sunday we reported a possible shooting in Williams Lake the night before. Turns out it was a gang related murder. Williams Lake has one murder in retaliation for a murder a year before that and the mayor makes a public plea for help to deal with their gang war.

Turns out there appears to be a gang war between two Native gangs in Williams Lake. Well I can tell you the obvious. One group is with the Hells Angels and the other group doesn't want to be. Here in BC, it's that simple. In Calgary the Hells Angels were behind that gang war too. The FOB were supplied drugs by the Hells Angels while the FK were supplied drugs by the UN. Red Alert is a First Nations gang that sells drugs for the Hells Angels. It has absolutely nothing to do with honour. It's just about drug trafficking. Who do you think supplies the Crips in Montreal? The Hells Angles do through their pal Greg Wooley. As Chris Tucker said "Follow the rich white man."

Three shootings in Chilliwack

The Chilliwack Times is reporting that there were three shootings at houses recently with no injuries reported. "The first incident was a report at 7 a.m. on Dec. 24 that a shotgun was fired at a residence in the 9900 block of Quarry Road. A similar report was made on Dec. 26 when between 1 and 3 a.m. a suspect yelled as a shotgun was fired at a house in the 9400 block of Hazel Street. Then on Jan. 2 at approximately 7 a.m. a 911 call was made to police that a shotgun had been fired at a house in the 45000 block of Rowat Avenue. Police believe the incidents are linked and were targeted events."

Body found in West Kelowna

Kelowna Capital News is reporting that "On Jan. 6, at 11:23 am, the West Kelowna RCMP was called to the area of Bear Creek Road, approximately two kilometres past Parkinson Road, for a report of a body found inside a vehicle."

South Surrey elementary school hit by bullet

The Surrey Now is reporting that "Someone shot a bullet through a window at East Kensington elementary school in South Surrey but police don't know who did it or why. Surrey RCMP Cpl. Scotty Schumann said school staff arrive at work this Wednesday morning to find a bullet hole in a window and a bullet on the floor."

John Nuttall's entrapment case back in court

The entrapment of John Nuttal and Amanda Korody is back in court this week. Monday was in camera but Tuesday and Wednesday were open to the public. I understand the Vancouver Sun has an application before the courts regarding the publication ban. Before the break the judge said that there was evidence that the RCMP acted illegally in this entrapment case. The judge also ordered that the legal opinion the RCMP were given would be made public.

No doubt the RCMP and CSIS, the high priests of organized crime, are doing everything they can to prevent the public from seeing that document. If the RCMP's lawyer told them that they were guilty of entrapment and the RCMP proceeded unilaterally anyways, that is highly relevant to the case. The public needs to know if that is what happened. The public need to know how their tax dollars are being spent. As I said before, there has never been a more clear case of entrapment in the history of the earth. This couple did not have the means or motive to commit this crime without the RCMP's help and pressure. They didn't even have bus fare to get to Victoria.

Two charged in Dover Park Shooting

The Vancouver Province is reporting that Thomas Duong, 20, of Richmond Sahand Askari, 31, of Burnaby have been charged with attempted murder for the shooting in Dover Park last August. Everyone apears to have gang ties but no gang is mentioned.This is not to be confused with the massive shootout in Dover Park back in 2007. That was a separate incident.

Last Knights

I saw the movie Last Knights on Netflx the other night. It was well done. It's very similar to the movie 47 Ronin which was awesome but I think many westerners would have a hard time understanding the Bushido culture in that movie. This one might be easier for them to understand.

Although this movie was about knights and noblemen, it had an eastern influence because the head of the state was an emperor not a king like in western europe. The setting in this movie was more of an eastern Europe setting after the manner of Ghangus Khan or Alexander the great. The movie A Knight's Tale was more of a traditional British knight movie.

The similar theme was that honour is something no man can give you and no man can take away. The Scottish highlander Rob Roy explained it well to his children. Hs kids asked him if their clan would ever return to being kings. He responded by saying all men with honour are kings but not all kings have honour. It is about a soldiers code.

I almost had to turn the movie off half way through. It was getting hard to watch and one would think there is no way anything positive can come from this. Then the plot changes and the real plan is revealed. The hero in this movie was a commander for a noble leader. The Sergeant at arms so to speak. The opposing Sergeant at arms respected him and was also honourable. Sadly the other commander's leader was not very noble at all. He was a weasel tyrant that beat women. It's too bad the opposing commander didn't join the hero's quest like the storm trooper who deserted in the new Star Wars movie. Some causes are just. Some are not.

Williams Lake Shooting

The Williams Lake Tribune is reporting that RCMP are investigating a possible shooting on the one-year anniversary of the murder of 22-year-old Jesse (Delmer) Frank of Williams Lake, whose body was discovered on the ice under the Rudy Johnson Bridge Friday, Jan. 2, 2015.

Update: CTV has confirmed the event and is reporting that it was a targeted double shooting. One of the unnamed victims had suffered potentially life-threatening injuries, while the second man had only minor wounds.

Man serving murder sentence dies in Abbotsford prison

The Vancouver Province reported that "A man serving time for the 2000 slaying of a rival gang member has died in custody. Gurwinder Singh (Gogi) Mann, 39, who was serving a life sentence in Abbotsford’s Pacific Institution, was found unresponsive in the institution’s hospital on Boxing Day.

Mann had been serving his sentence since May 31, 2003 for the first-degree murder of Gurpreet Singh Sohi. Sohi was gunned down in a Delta basement suite. At the time of his 2003 death, Sohi was a suspect in another shooting targeting individuals with alleged gang links." The court was told that killing was in retaliation for the Sept. 10, 2000 wounding of Rajinder Soomel’s brother by Sohi and Sohi’s theft of a large amount of marijuana.

One of Gurwinder Singh Mann's coacused was Daljit Singh Basran who was a suspect in the November 1998 murder of Dave Hayer's father. Hardip Singh Uppal said, Robbie Soomel admitted that he and Daljit Singh (Umboo) Basran were promised $50,000 by the Babbar Khalsa terrorist group to kill Tara Singh Hayer who was going to be a witness in the Air India bombing case.

Montreal Hells Angels associate Luc Bolea pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to traffic in cocaine between March 2008 and June 2008 in Vancouver and elsewhere in B.C. He was charged in June 2008 along with his co-accused Bruno Diquinzio and Jean Gaetan Gingras. They were initially targeted in the reverse sting because of their role in the failed 1986 bomb plot against Surrey publisher Tara Singh Hayer, who was later assassinated.

Gingras admitted he once left a bomb outside the Surrey office of journalist Tara Singh Hayer. His confession was recorded on wire tap. The bomb, which was wrapped in a copy of the Montreal Gazette inside a McDonald’s bag, was placed at the Surrey office on Jan. 26, 1986. It was found by Hayer’s son-in-law, who called 911. The RCMP bomb squad dismantled it, finding five pieces of dynamite. No one has ever been charged in connection with the device.

Tara Singh Hayer was paralyzed by an assassination attempt in l988 and was wheelchair bound when he was killed in 1998. I lived in the townhouses at the end of his cul-de-sac.

The CBC and the RCMP confirmed that CSIS provided the explosives for the Air India bombing.
