(CAN) Hells Angel David Giles dies months after record sentence – UPDATED

Here is my updated story about David Giles, who was a Hells Angel for 35 years. His status in the club he loved was unclear at the time of his death Saturday in an Abbotsford hospital.

“Formidable” Hells Angel David Giles dies months after getting record sentence

Retired Vancouver Police biker specialist Brad Stephen remembers the first time he met Hells Angel David Giles in the mid-1990s.

Stephen pulled him over on Dundas in East Vancouver after seeing Giles “peel out” of the parking lot of the old Drake Hotel.

“I remember it vividly,” Stephen recalled Sunday. “I pulled him over and he just oozed hatred for law enforcement. You could just feel the disdain coming from his pores.”

Stephen said he was polite with the powerful biker, welcoming him to the West Coast where he had just relocated.

“I remember him opening his wallet. He wanted to make sure that I saw his platinum American Express,” Stephen said, adding that in the day, the card carried a credit limit of $100,000.

“He wouldn’t engage at all, just stared me down.”

Giles died in an Abbotsford hospital Saturday, just three months after he was handed a record sentence for his role in a massive international cocaine conspiracy.

B.C. Justice Carol Ross gave the ailing 67-year-old biker an 18-year sentence, minus credit for time served, leaving a net term of just over 11 years.

It was the longest sentence ever given to a B.C. Hells Angel.

Ross said Giles was one of the leaders in a plot to smuggle half a tonne of cocaine into B.C. Undercover cops posing as South American drug exporters had duped Giles and his associates in a sophisticated multinational sting.

The judge rejected a call for a more lenient term from Giles’ lawyer Paul Gill, who said his client was critically ill and needed a liver transplant.

Giles had been incarcerated at the Pacific Institution, acting assistant warden Ronnie Gill said in a statement.

She said Giles’ family had been notified of his passing, as had the police and the B.C. Coroners Service.

While no cause of death was provided, Giles health appeared to decline over his months-long trial in B.C. Supreme Court. He laboured as he walked through the courtroom each morning and breathed heavily in the prisoner’s box.

Giles and associates were convicted last September. He was sentenced on March 31, 2017 after an unsuccessful fight to have the case thrown out due to the length of time it took to get to trial.

Giles had once served on the national executive of the Hells Angels and was close to Montreal HA president and convicted killer Maurice “Mom” Boucher.

He moved from the Montreal chapter to Halifax, then to Vancouver’s East End chapter, before becoming one of the first Kelowna Hells Angels when the bikers expanded with a new chapter there in 2007.

“He was a very formidable underworld figure in the Hells Angels,” Stephen said. “You know that he had influence and that he had cachet within the Hells Angels organization. He had connections back east and all over the world.”

While still an East End member, Giles and several others were arrested and charged after a major police investigation during which agent Micheal Plante infiltrated the chapter.

Several bikers and associates were convicted, but Giles beat all his charges.

Plante later told Postmedia that he wore a wire into an East End meeting the night the bikers offered him a position in the Hells Angels program.

Giles jokingly said: “You are not going to, like, become a Hells Angel and then quit and write a book about us, are you?”

Giles was again the target of police in the E-Predicate investigation, resulting in his arrest on a series of charges in August 2012 and his conviction four years later.

During the investigation Giles and his associates gave police a $4-million down payment and arranged for an initial shipment of 200 kilograms of cocaine to be delivered to Burnaby warehouse on Aug. 25, 2012

“Considering the nature of this transaction, the quantity of drugs involved, the intention for it to be an ongoing venture, Mr. Giles’ role and Mr. Giles’ personal circumstances, I have concluded that the fit sentence is 18 years,” Ross said.

Ross also noted that Giles had a tough early life — born in Saint John, N.B., to an alcoholic mother who died early. He finished Grade 5 and was then “committed to a reformatory that has become notorious for abuse.”

He went on to foster care and a life of crime, though his last conviction before E-Predicate was in 1984 for trafficking.

Giles spent 35 years of his life as a Hells Angels. But his status with the club was uncertain at the time of his death.

Hells Angels spokesman Ricky Ciarniello did not respond to a Postmedia request for comment.

(AUS) Bandidos pass initiation test in push for Tassie turf

A FEARED bikie gang is trying to strengthen its presence in Tasmania.

Bandidos gang members from across the globe have been congratulating their bikie comrades in Tasmania for making it to the next phase of their initiation to become a fully-fledged chapter of the outlaw organisation.

This is despite police targeting the group to limit its emergence locally, including evicting members from their clubhouse and conducting operations that led to several people being charged with assault, theft, drug and driving offences.

The development comes a year after the Mersey River chapter established itself in the state’s North-West, sparking fears of potential bikie feuds, ice manufacturing and drug trafficking.

Tasmania Police Serious Organised Crime Division Detective Inspector Glen Ball confirmed that mainland Bandidos members, including the group’s national president, were recently in Tasmania as part of the bikie gang’s initiation process.

“The group was known as the Mersey ‘hang around chapter’ and intelligence indicates it recently progressed to a ‘probationary chapter’ following an event attended by national members, including the national president,” Insp Ball said.

“This event was the subject of a police operation which resulted in associates being charged with driving offences and drug-driving offences which are now before the court.”

Chapters of the notorious gang from Finland, Russia, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany and Spain commented on the Bandidos MC website, congratulating the Tasmanian Bandidos for taking a big step towards becoming fully patched members.

Comments were also posted from chapters in Darwin and Victoria.

Since the Bandidos sought to establish themselves locally last year, Tasmania Police has vowed to disrupt the group and dismantle its foothold, conducting numerous raids and laying assault, drug, theft and driving charges against alleged members and associates.

Insp Ball said that the group had been significantly disrupted and was not entrenched, despite recent bikie status developments.

“Targeted policing activity along with community engagement and liaison resulted in the members being evicted from a premises in Shearwater they were using as a clubhouse,” he said.

“There is no current intelligence suggesting they have an alternate premises.

“The Bandidos OMCG are not entrenched in Tasmania — it is believed membership totals five people statewide — and while they have been disrupted, it is likely they will attempt to establish themselves in the area again.

“Local Bandidos members and their associates have been charged with various offences, including serious drug offences, instigated by the Serious Organised Crime Unit last year.

“Tasmania Police will continue ... to ensure a hostile environment for them.”

(AUS) Rebels bikie sergeant-at-arms saved by police after brutal bashing from fellow gang members

STRAPPED to a chair with cable ties, bleeding profusely and fading in and out of consciousness, Rick Reynolds would likely be dead if not for the police.

Fellow bikie gang members, armed with a pickaxe, shovel, pliers, cricket bat and a gas burner for scorching off club tattoos, had ambushed the Rebels sergeant-at-arms outside a smash repair workshop, dragging him inside to finish the job.

There were three possible motives for the assault. One was a rumour that Reynolds (his real name has been suppressed) had been planning to leave the Rebels for a rival gang.

Another was an unsubstantiated claim that he was a police informant, based on the fact he’d repeatedly escaped jail for his crimes.

But the most probable reason, according to Judge Peter Zahra, was that Reynolds committed a cardinal sin within the lawless but heavily codified world of bikie gang culture: cheating with a fellow gang member’s partner.

This lack of a clear motive is typical of gangland prosecutions in which the code of silence, usually motivated by gang loyalty or, for witnesses, by fear of retribution, tests the limits of the justice system.

Reynolds, a Rebels member since 2004, told the court he finished work about 5pm on January 23, 2013, went home, had dinner, showered, then returned to work about 9pm to finish working on a tip truck for a client.

As he parked his car and crossed the street outside Prospect Smash Repairs on Stoddard Rd, in Sydney’s west, he heard a noise in the dark.

“I just felt getting hit over the head, that was the last that I can remember,” he told the District Court.

But this evidence jarred with conversations from a police listening device planted in his Westmead Hospital room.

“The other bloke got out of the car and goes, ‘You f...ing dog c..., you f...ed my missus’,” Reynolds told a visitor.

“I don’t know what their plans were. Their plans were in the car — a pick, shovels, gas burners that can burn tattoos. I was in and out of consciousness so I don’t remember a lot but I heard sirens.”

In another conversation he said the attack was due to happen the previous night at a Rebels clubhouse meeting, but was postponed because he arrived with his daughter.

Later conversations revealed he’d been summoned to a meeting at the workshop. Reynolds said some of the men involved “didn’t even know what they were doing there”.

He said: “They were told to come there. They got set up.”

Asked about his inconsistent evidence, Reynolds told the court he had limited memory of what was said in hospital and no recollection of what happened that night.

Police were alerted to the bashing by two witnesses who happened to be driving along Stoddard Rd at the time of the attack.

Given pseudonyms, they told the court they saw Reynolds being pummelled unconscious on the footpath by several men.

They called police as he was being dragged inside the factory, prompting several officers to rush to the premises and scale a padlocked fence.

“Police interrupted it and effectively saved his life,” a law enforcement official said.

Facing sentencing on Friday, Joshua Achampong, Francis Anderson, David Coe, Anthony Fenech, Aaron Ferguson, Mario Gauci, Jared Khan and Ryan Vella all pleaded not guilty to recklessly causing grievous bodily harm and causing grievous bodily harm with intent.

Each of the men had histories that included absent fathers, domestic violence, a lack of role models, language barriers, bullying at school and heavy drug use in the lead-up to joining the Rebels.

For these reasons, Judge Zahra found special circumstances applied to their sentencing.

Each will spend a minimum of between two and three years in prison before being eligible for parole.

Another man allegedly involved in the crime will face trial next year.

Reynolds suffered no permanent injuries in the attack.

(USA) Three years prison for former Hells Angel

A man convicted of threatening his ex-girlfriend while he was serving a prison term for his involvement in illegal drug sales was sentenced to three years in state prison Thursday, according to the San Mateo County District Attorney’s Office.

Former Hells Angel Jason Peterson, 43, received 841 days credit for time served and has less than a year remaining in his sentence, according to prosecutors.

In 2008, Peterson started dating a woman who he would date for 10 months during court proceedings related to his involvement in illegal drug sales for the motorcycle group. He reportedly physically, emotionally and verbally abused the woman, and began threatening her after he was taken into custody. Though the woman broke off the relationship in 2011, Peterson refused to believe the relationship was over and continued to threaten her, saying he would kill anyone who came between them, according to prosecutors.

Peterson was subsequently kicked out of the Hells Angels and the woman reported his threats to the Burlingame Police Department in 2015, according to prosecutors.

(CAN) Ex-Bandidos member suing SPVM, city of Montreal for $6.5 million: reports

Tony Duguay, a former member of the Bandidos motorcycle club convicted in 2006 for the murder of Hells Angels member Normand “Biff” Hamel and then acquitted in 2016, is suing the city of Montreal, the SPVM and two detectives for $6.5 million, Le Journal de Montréal reports.

Duguay was acquitted in 2016 by the Quebec Court of Appeal when informant Sylvain Beaudry admitted to lying during his testimony. According to court documents, Duguay said he blames former police detective Benoit Roberge and detective Jean-Pierre Pelletier for making “intentional errors” to force Beaudry to “lie in court” to obtain a guilty verdict.

Duguay, 44, is suing for moral, monetary and punitive damages. He was arrested in 2002 during Operation Amigo, which marked the end of the Rock Machine gang. He was charged for conspiracy, drug trafficking and gangsterism. Duguay spent seven years and nine months in the Donnacona maximum security facility before being acquitted.

Meanwhile, Roberge was granted day parole in August 2016 after serving two years of an eight-year sentence. Roberge, who is also known as the “SPVM mole,” admitted to the Parole Board of Canada that he often crossed the line during his career.

“I have committed crimes to stop motorcyclists,” he confessed. “I’ve made certain maneuvers, and I asked informants to commit crimes. I regret it.”

(USA) Vagos case court filing in Las Vegas reports bombing threats

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Prosecutors in Las Vegas say telephoned bomb threats are reasons to deny bail to a defendant in a criminal racketeering case involving 23 accused Vagos motorcycle club leaders, members or associates.

Defense attorney Chris Rasmussen on Thursday dismissed the account by prosecutors as a desperate and unsubstantiated attempt to keep his client, John Seimer, in federal custody until trial.

Court filings cited two telephoned threats last Saturday to the FBI and Los Angeles police.

Prosecutors said both referred to the June 16 arrests of Vagos case defendants and named Seimer.

One caller also named two other defendants and said a bomb had been placed to explode on or before Friday.

The FBI and U.S. prosecutors didn't immediately respond to telephone and email messages.

(USA) KCSO arrests alleged motorcycle gang member after high speed chase

Kershaw County Sheriff Office (KCSO) deputies arrested an alleged motorcycle gang member following a high speed chase involving Sheriff Jim Matthews on I-20 around 8:30 p.m. Monday. According to a KCSO press release, deputies arrested Jody David Fogle, 44, whose last known address was on Convent Church Road in Leesville.

Matthews had just completed a traffic stop on the interstate when he saw Fogle’s motorcycle approach from behind and then pass the sheriff’s unmarked patrol car at a “very high rate of speed.” Matthews determined Fogle was traveling at 101 mph and attempted to make a traffic stop by activating blue lights and sirens. Fogle did not stop, but increased his speed to about 104 mph, continuing eastbound on until exiting at the rest area between U.S. 601 and U.S. 521.

Deputies ultimately took Fogle into custody as he came out of the restrooms at the rest area. He reportedly had in his possession and on his person several knives and a set of brass knuckles. He was wearing “Warlocks” colors when arrested. As of Tuesday, KCSO investigators were attempting to determine if Fogle is a validated “Warlocks” outlaw motorcycle gang member.

According to the press release, Fogle has an extensive criminal history and has been arrested in the past for multiple offenses of DUI, simple assault and battery, assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature, marijuana possession, driving under suspension and failure to stop for a blue light; as well as individual offenses of disorderly conduct, violation of probation, accessory after the fact of a felony, contempt of circuit court, contempt of family court, possession of cocaine/meth, reckless driving, possession of a firearm by convicted violent felon, and speeding more than 25 mph over limit.

Fogle now faces charges of speeding 26 mph or more over the speed limit, habitual offender, DUS (third offense) and failure to stop for a blue light (third offense).

According to online court records, a judge set a total cash/surety bond Tuesday of $20,045, which was posted Tuesday afternoon.

(USA) Third Outlaw arrested in Leesburg biker gang shooting

LEESBURG, Fla. - Leesburg police have arrested a third man in connection with a fatal motorcycle gang shooting near Leesburg Bikefest in April, according to a news release.

Miquel Angel Torres, 37, was arrested Tuesday on charges of conspiracy to commit murder, kidnapping and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. A warrant was issued for his arrest in May.

Marc Edward "Knott Head" Knotts, 48, and Jesus Alberto Marrero, 35, were arrested in May. A warrant has been issued for Gregory Alan "Stinky" Umphress, 32. All four men are members of the Outlaw motorcycle gang, according to police records.

The shooting at a Leesburg Circle K between the Outlaws and the Kingsmen motorcycle gangs on the night of April 29 left Kingsmen David "Gutter" Donovan, 41, dead, according to the warrant.

Knotts, 48, was also shot during the incident. He was wearing a ballistic vest during the shooting and has since recovered from his injuries.

Kingsmen members told police at the scene that the Outlaws attacked them at the gas station then rode away in formation, records show. They said Umphress approached the Kingsmen inside the convenience store and demanded that they remove and surrender their club insignia.

When the Kingsmen refused, they were forced outside, where Torres made Donovan get on his knees and held a knife to his throat, according to the warrant. Donovan pleaded for his life but still refused to hand over the insignia "due to his loyalty to the club."

Knotts commanded that his fellow Outlaws shoot Donovan for his refusal, police said.

After the shooting, the Kingsmen hid inside the convenience store, unable to help Donovan because he was surrounded by Outlaws. A Kingsmen shot Knotts in an attempt to help Donovan, the report said.

That Kingsmen told police that the Outlaws have been challenging motorcycle clubs across the state in attempt to get them to join their ranks or submit to their authority, according to the warrant. The Kingsmen refused to the affiliation.

"[The Kingsmen] furthered that, due to the prior rumors of the 'Outlaws' decree and their reputation, the fear felt by him and his fellow club members had been further enhanced during their confrontation," the warrant read.

Umphress is the only Outlaw still at large in connection with the shooting. Police said the investigation is ongoing and anyone with information regarding his whereabouts is asked to contact the Leesburg Police Department or local authorities.

(USA) Twin Peaks biker named in three-count superseding indictment

The biker scheduled to be tried first for his alleged role in the Twin Peaks shootout was named Wednesday in a three-count superseding indictment.

A McLennan County grand jury charged Christopher Jacob Carrizal, 35, with one count of directing activities of a criminal street gang, a count of engaging in organized criminal activity with an underlying offense of murder and one count of engaging in organized criminal activity with an underlying offense of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

McLennan County District Attorney Abel Reyna and his first assistant, Michael Jarrett, have made it clear that they want Carrizal, a Bandido from Dallas, to be the first in a long line of 155 bikers indicted after the May 2015 shootout to stand trial, even while passing over other bikers who were clamoring for quicker trial settings.

Carrizal’s trial is set to start Sept. 11 in Waco’s 19th State District Court.

Houston attorney Casie Gotro, who represents Carrizal, said all defendants have a right to request a chance to present evidence to a grand jury. However, she said, Reyna “did not even provide me the courtesy of informing me he was taking Jake’s case to the grand jury.”

“I was informed of this new indictment by you, the newspaper,” Gotro said. “The fact that Reyna has to sneak around and present evidence behind a defendant’s back just goes to show he is still trying to make chicken salad out of chicken feathers.

“I haven’t had a chance to read the indictment, but adding that charge this late in the game feels like vindictive prosecution. It’s like spaghetti charges when they throw it all against the wall and see what sticks.”

The superseding indictment takes the place of the original indictment against Carrizal, which, like the matching arrest warrant affidavits used to take 177 bikers into custody the evening of the shootout, was identical to the other indictments charging engaging in organized criminal activity with underlying offenses of murder and aggravated assault.

The new charges
The superseding indictment charges that Carrizal, “as part of the identifiable leadership of a criminal street gang,” directed or supervised the commission of a conspiracy to commit murder and/or aggravated assault, “by members of a criminal street gang, Bandidos.”

The first count carries a punishment range of 25 years to 99 years or up to life in prison.

The second count charges that Carrizal, “with the intent to establish, maintain or participate as a member of a criminal street gang, to wit: Bandidos,” did commit or conspire to commit murder by causing the death of Wayne Campbell, Matthew Smith, Charles Russell, Daniel Boyett, Jacob Rhyne, Richard Kirshner, Richard Jordan II, Manuel Rodriguez and Jesus Rodriguez.

The second count carries a penalty range of 15 years to 99 years or life.

The third count charges that Carrizal, as a member of a criminal street gang, committed aggravated assault with a deadly weapon against 18 bikers injured or wounded in the melee. The count charges that Carrizal used or exhibited a “firearm, and/or a knife or a sharp object and/or a club and/or an asp and/or a whip and/or brass knuckles and/or a chain and/or feet and or/hands and/or an object unknown to the grand jury.”

The third count carries from five to 99 years in prison or up to life upon conviction.

Reyna, who is attending a conference this week of the Texas Gang Investigators Association in San Antonio, came back to Waco with Jarrett and prosecutor Amanda Dillon on Wednesday to present the superseding indictment and returned to the conference. Reyna did not return a phone message on Wednesday.

Reyna had hoped to push the bikers’ trials into next year, asking Judge Ralph Strother to postpone the trials until after federal authorities try national leaders of the Bandidos group in San Antonio. That trial is set to begin in February.

Reyna and Jarrett told the court in March that Reyna received a letter from U.S. Attorney Richard Durbin telling him that federal authorities prosecuting the Bandidos in San Antonio have information that relates to Twin Peaks cases but said they will not share it with McLennan County prosecutors until after the federal trial.

Jarrett said at previous hearings that under the Michael Morton Act, prosecutors are bound to wait so they can review the federal evidence and share it with defense attorneys now that Durbin has notified Reyna’s office that they have evidence that relates to the Twin Peaks cases.

The Michael Morton Act requires prosecutors to reveal all evidence, especially favorable evidence, to defendants’ attorneys.

Gotro asked Strother in May for a summer trial setting, saying she didn’t need to wait on evidence from federal authorities because it does not pertain to Carrizal.

Gotro told Strother that much of the evidence against the Bandidos charged in San Antonio was obtained through wire intercepts. When the investigation is done, defendants either get indicted or they receive a letter from the government that says they were the target of wire surveillance, she said. Carrizal was not indicted in San Antonio and did not receive such a letter, Gotro said.

Also, she asked for a list of all Department of Public Safety troopers and agents and Texas Rangers who were listed as case agents in the federal Bandidos investigation, Gotro said. She compared that list to officers listed in the Twin Peaks investigation, and there was no overlap, she told the judge.

“Based on those things, I don’t think they have any evidence related to Jake Carrizal in San Antonio,” Gotro said.

(USA) 67 Year Old Mongols Motorcycle Club Member Sentenced to Prison

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — A 67-year-old Arcadia man was sentenced to 84 months in prison for possessing and using a gun in connection with a kidnapping, federal prosecutors said.

Eric Lundin pleaded guilty Nov. 10, and admitted to using a gun to enhance or maintain his status with a racketeering business of the Mongols Motorcycle Club.

According to that plea, Lundin admitted that on April 22, 2013, he used a Colt .38 and a semi-automatic handgun to intimidate and hold a female kidnapping victim, prosecutors said.

Lundin also admitted that he targeted the victim at least in part because he thought his daughter and his home were robbed by someone associated with a relative of the victim.

Prosecutors said Lundin believed he needed to respond to the robbery to maintain respect for members of the motorcycle club and his status with them.

(AUS) Dozens of Gypsy Joker bikies stopped at roadblock in Wodonga

POLICE are making no apologies for targeting the Gypsy Jokers during their national run.

About 100 bikies from across the country are in the North East as part of the run.

About 100 to 150 police officers from several states are watching them closely.

Police checked each gang member and motorbike that passed through a roadblock in Osburn Street, Wodonga on Monday morning.

Superintendent Paul O’Halloran said outlaw motorcycle gangs used violence and intimidation and were involved in extortion, drug trafficking and prostitution.

“It’s common knowledge and open source reporting they’re involved in significant, serious crime,” he said.

“And unless you manage that, things can get out of control, and we want to make sure that doesn’t happen.

“All motorcycle gangs are (violent) and that’s how they work, on intimidation.

“We know that outlaw motorcycle gangs are involved in extortion, drugs and prostitution at various levels.”

The fact the Jokers identified as one-percenters showed they weren’t simply a motorbike enthusiast club, he said.

“They don’t believe in following the rules, so we have to make sure they do,” Superintendent O’Halloran said.

The gang has been linked to extreme violence, including a car bomb double murder and shootings.

Police did not detect any offences at the roadblock on Monday morning.

Superintendent O’Halloran said officers would have “no problem whatsoever” with the riders if they obeyed the law.

“But if they step out of line, they’ll be dealt with,” he said.

Most people in the community wanted police to target outlaw motorcycle gangs, he said.

“You can’t have it both ways,” Superintendent O’Halloran said.

“If we didn’t run operations, then the situation can be that it would be taken advantage of.

“The law-abiding, silent majority want to see the police out there making sure that people are safe.”

The bikies, who are heading through Bright, Omeo, and Orbost before returning to Wodonga, have travelled from as far as Western Australia and South Australia.

Officers from those states are monitoring the gang with federal police and Victorian officers from the anti-bikie Echo Taskforce, Operations Response Unit, tactical police and more.
