Five years ago today

Five years ago today, the meeting began at Wayne (Weiner) Kellestine’s farm that ended in the largest biker murder in the world, anywhere, any time. The more I learned about the inner workings of the club, the more I was struck by the absolute pointlessness of the crime. All of the victims – and the killers – had all already been kicked out of the club by its American headquarters. None of them made a penny from the crime. Most of the victims wanted to quit the club anyway. Many of the victims had loving families and didn’t need the false brotherhood of the club. It’s obvious why clubs like the Outlaws and the Hells Angels didn’t want Kellestine in their ranks, but it’s too simple to blame all of the bloodshed on his insanity. Seven times that night, he turned his back on “brothers,” and no one once raised a hand to stop him.
