Light sentences for Hells Angels; judge rips RCMP
Light sentences for Hells Angels; judge rips RCMP
VANCOUVER/CKNW AM 980.
[Cknw.com] Two full patch Hell's Angels won't be spending much time in prison on drug production and trafficking charges, in part, because of some of the tactics RCMP employed in a multi-million dollar investigation.
49 -year old Randy Potts was handed a four and a half year sentence for drug possession and trafficking charges.
For good behavior, attempts at drug and alcohol rehabilitation, church support, medical conditions- including what the judge described as a painful abcess on his buttocks, and his early guilty plea, he gets one year behind bars.
It was a similar fate for fellow Angel, 43 -year old John Punko.
He gets 14 months behind bars.
Justice Peter Leask was highly critical of the RCMP's "E-Pandora" investigation, one which targetted members of Vancouver's East End Hells's Angels chapter.
Leask says the RCMP not only fed the two men's drug and alcohol habits, but he also said the men would likely would not have committed their crimes, had it not been for the actions of undercover police.
Despite this, RCMP Inspector Gary Shinkaruk says "E-Pandora", which came with a 10 million dollar price tag, has been a success, because it's disrupted the operations of the East End chapter.
He does admit though: the investigation has seen a lot of "ups and downs".
The Crown is now appealing both sentences.

Hells Angels ride through Midlands: Are they here to stay?
By Jillian Capobianco POSTED IN [wistv.com/]
COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - A notorious motorcycle group rolled into the Midlands Saturday. A Lexington bar owner organized a poker run for the Hells Angels and said there was no need for community members to be concerned.
"There's always going to be someone who likes it and someone that don't like it and that's anything in life," said Joe Biedrycki, who invited our cameras to the poker run.
With the rev of their engines, the Hells Angels rolled into Lexington Saturday for a poker run. The ride funds the Hells Angels' Sin City Defense Fund, a fund to cover attorney fees and court costs after Las Vegas police raided six Angels' houses last fall.
"They're not looked at for the good things they've done, they're looked at for the bad things that's happened in the past," said organizer Lisa Meyers, who is friends with the Hells Angels.
