B.C. liquor authorities are reviewing the license of a bar linked to a Hells Angel who’s linked to an American drug bust. Is it possible to wipe out links between criminals and licensed drinking spots? And when’s a link really a link? Seems like something for an undergraduate philosophy class.

Security’s particularly tight as a murder trial gets underway into a 12-year-old case which authorities connect tot he Hells Angels.

I’ve always admired the work of Rob Lamberti of the Toronto Sun. He officially left the paper last week for academic life, but filed this story and one appearing tomorrow on his way out. Lamberti’s a thorough, professional journalist and the game will be played at a lower level in his absence.

His series is about the release from prison of the Hells Angels and mobsters connected to a botched hit that ended in the paralyzing of Toronto mother Louise Russo.

A Washington State judge hit a Canadian man with links to Hells Angels in B.C. and a Mexican drug cartel with a 13 year term. He was convicted on smuggling pot and coke across two borders. Things went wrong when he hired an undercover agent to move drugs for him.

It’s like a horror movie, where the monster keeps coming back to life. Rock Machine colours are back on the streets of Quebec, raising obvious fears of a renewal of the violence of the Rock Machine’s war with the Hells Angels over drug turf.

It’s not that often that you hear Tavistock and Cambridge mentioned in Hells Angels story, but here’s one, with a man believed to be in the club charged with a break and enter.

Winnipeg police have had plenty of success putting Hells Angels behind bars, but no so much luck getting drugs off the street.

The custom Harley of Manitoba Hells Angels president Dale Donovan has been seized, while a former member agreed to give up his colours to get out of jail. Now authorities are looking at seizing Donovan’s upscale home..

Homes vandalized, vehicles destroyed, riot squad held at bay in London, Ont. Hells Angels? Outlaws? Nope, Fanshawe College students celebrating St. Patrick’s Day by setting an east end street in flames. Hopefully none were studying police foundations. It goes without saying that wasn’t in the neighbourhood of the Hells Angels clubhouse or the kids would have been part of the bonfire.

A Hells Angels hitman gets a life term for two murders during Quebec’s bikers war. One of his victims was killed in a case of mistaken identity and had nothing to do with the conflict over the drug trade.
