[Music] the Hell’s Angels for a whole generation have been known as a black jacketed motorcycle gang with a taste for violence people do not testify against the Hell’s Angels and people do not interfere with them that was the way it [Music] was a one per Center is someone who’s dedicated their entire existence to Living On The Fringe adhering by no one’s rules except for their own the code is Allon one you know Hell’s Angel is always right you think of them as the worst of the worst but I think of them as the elite we all got guts we’re not afraid to fight for what we believe in everything is about this this patch means everything your life is dedicated to the point where you will die for it the bikers were very intelligent businessmen there was high-powered weapons AK-47 they were drug dealers they were organized crime cocaine is a gold mine they thought Enterprise the scope and scale of that had never been seen before I’d say they could have given Jeff Bezos a run for his money it’s the wild west out there they were murderers my job is to cash these guy what are they going to do killis no compunction of slaughtering their enemies but to turn against your own the vote was taken and that’s when all help was let loose it was really out of control the Hell’s Angels in bar on an Enterprise worth upwards of a billion dollar we all felt like we had a Target on our backs it was turn or die it’s an untenable situation to be in I mean this is biblical oh down Thunder I shake the ground when they call my number I’ll shut them down you can’t stop me no you can’t stop me now you can bury me way down under I’ll rise fall I’m going to call down from shake the ground you can’t stop me now in the 1970s the United States was in the middle of a major crime wave that didn’t discriminate it went from one side of our country to the other New York City was a mess Los Angeles wasn’t much better major cities in the midwest like Detroit and Chicago were experiencing a flee of residents to the suburbs one detective as he left the scene this morning said we’ve got good reason to be nervous these days the cocaine and all these various drugs coming in I had one picture of a a guy was murdered he was lying half out of a car I guess he was shot some drug deal going bad in the 60s drugs started exploding but in a recreational way marijuana LSD but the 1970s start turning ugly it’s the beginning of cocaine the crime took a different direction in the United States and became bigger more corporatized what happened was the Italian mafia who would never deal drugs when the Old Guard was in charge realized there was too much money to be made and so heroin was everywhere followed by cocaine and the profits were [Music] huge the Hell’s Angels were really at the right time at the right place they were a motorcycle gang they were always into selling drugs they were into their power but they weren’t a serious organized crime group suddenly they realized that what they were doing as a Pastime selling drugs could now become their livelihood it’s a court order restraining us from breaking the law so guess we can’t break it while we’re here first you had Sunny Barger who was by far the most influential and consequential Hell’s Angel of his day this man probably knows more about the Hell’s Angels than anyone he is sunny Barger who helped organize the group 21 years ago and is considered by many to be the most powerful man in the Hell’s Angels Sunny had big Vision big Ambitions in order for them to exist and flourish over time you you needed some way to control membership and their image I think we all got guts we’re not afraid to fight for what we believe in and he realized that yes we could be Rowdy bikers but we need discipline we need an army he sets up rules Geographic limits so each chapter had either a city or often part of a city you couldn’t raid and step on the toes of your fellow Brothers he added a level of sophistication to the Hell’s Angels motorcycle club he brought structure to it you also had a situation where there was the counterculture there was politics there was war there was a lot of unrest why don’t you people go home Sunny Barger was confident and and he could he could speak he was articulate Dear Mr President I’m behalf of myself and my associates I volunteer a group of loyal Americans for behind the line Duty in Vietnam and then you combine that with this Push by by Sunny Barger to start building the mythology we’re a little different we ride motorcycles and when the police say these guys are killers these guys are dope fiends this and that it’s probably not too hard for the public to believe but we’re mostly a bunch of happy goodlucky guys is trying to make it in this world you know undoubtedly Sunny Barger was a marketing genius he was able to capture public opinion narrative about the Hells Angels motorcycle club while containing the bad [Music] [Applause] [Music] behavior so suddenly the Hill’s Angels who were always dangerous always involved in guns and drugs drug and other activities it starts turning a lot darker drugs means money money means turf wars turf wars means bombs killings and it just sets the stage for what will be four or five Decades of violence Sunny Barger will openly say in the 60s it was all fun and games in the 1970s we turned into gangsters the police authorities say they have become far more than that they’ve gone into such money-making Fields as narcotics and prostitution and have made Millions using methods even more brutal than the mafas they have their criminal Enterprise flourish unimpeded because of the fear that attaches to the name Hell’s Angels Sunny Barger has this vision of expanding what was a California group around the world he starts by spreading across the United States moving into the Northeast the Hell’s Angels is divided west coast East Coast so what happened on the East Coast was generally Sandy Alexander’s business he was the sunny Barger if you will of the east coast and therefore had his say in that territory Sandy Alexander and the Hell’s Angels leveraged the media like the haraldo show to put stakes in the ground about who who they were and what they were about what makes the Hell’s Angels different from other people a Brotherhood of men takes a man to be a Hell’s Angel they’re busting our balls you know and they’ll do anything to bust our balls you know the man Sandy was good I liked Sandy I thought he was a good leader running the Hell’s Angels I wouldn’t want the job the Hell’s Angels were my neighbors I found this apartment on Third Street got a little Studio set up there and across the street was the hell Angels Clubhouse usually there would be this huge fellow with tattoos all over his body and various chains and things and a pitbull with him and that was big Vinny huge big slab of meat he was on TV was Sandy how much do you R 320 what do you have back here oh nice uh what do you use it for I mean uh peeling bananas and oranges stuff like then he asked me to take a picture I said oh this is great I’ll get some good shots of him it became iconic that photograph of him with a pitbull but he was a psychotic nut about 2 months later he comes up and without saying it he just cold coocks me right in the face then I found out he really like the photograph his way of showing me that he appreciated the photograph was to come and Co coock me this is before before he really did any of the really crazy stuff that later he was attributed to doing throwing a girl off a building I can see him doing that now just trying to do the craziest stupidest thing that he could having no empathy the Hell’s Angels were violent they were known for being violent they reveled in their violence but they weren’t the only ones [Music] when you’re talking about the World of Outlaw Bikers there are really two groups that stand above everybody else and Hell’s Angels are clearly the name on the Marquee the most notorious Infamous biker Club in world history but a close second is the Outlaws motorcycle club which is the equivalent of the Hell’s Angels in the Midwest and down in Florida they name says it all they’re proud to be Outlaws there’s no notion of being Angelic so the Outlaws had no reluctance to use violence the relationship between the Outlaws and the Hell’s Angels in the mid 70s was very bad to say the least there’s been a ongoing war between the Hell’s Angels and the Outlaws that Trace back a half century my sources and by reading official court records I believe that the war was started by an altercation on New Year’s Eve 1973 in New York the Hell’s Angels are throwing a party at their Clubhouse and you had three Florida Outlaws that were in New York at the time and these three guys showed up at the party accounts vary but one of them possibly raped the wife girlfriend of the president of the hell in New York Sandy Alexander and these three guys got physically attacked and beaten severely by the Hell’s Angels I believe one of them got their vest stolen which is like sacrilege in the world of of bikers after that the Outlaws were able to identify the names of the three Hell’s Angels that had attacked their Outlaw Brothers in New York on that New Year’s Eve and they took them to a construction site to like a gravel pit and killed them all execution style and that ignited the now still raging biker war between the Hell’s Angels and the Outlaws and the actions the Hell’s Angels took next would spread Mayhem across the entire continent bring on the rise of a new Hell’s Angels King and leave hundreds dead [Music] heavy is the head when you killed the guy it’s sit in front of me that wears the helmet sooner or later Everybody Talks this it’s real Hell’s Angels Kingdom Come Wednesdays at 10 on Vice so you have three Hell’s Angels that had been murdered brutally executed by The Outlaws now the Hell’s Angels and the Outlaws just hate each other those two altercations sparked a biker War a bitter violent conflict that has yet to cease or slow down 50 years later The Outlaws had already made a move to come to Canada in the mid 60s late 60s the leadership of the Outlaws saw that they could go into Canada and pick and choose what biker clubs they wanted to develop support arrangements with in a lot of cases they wanted to patch over so they saw it as a ground for recruiting and for expansion and the Outlaws already had a strong bond with a group called the Satan’s Choice Satan’s Choice were huge they were organized they were prolific manufacturers of PCP and methamphetamine they had massive sway they had massive Presence Power and they were respected and feared they were true 1centers in Windsor Ontario there was a crossborder Alliance or friendship with Satan’s choice and the Outlaws in Detroit from downtown Detroit you can get to Windsor in less than 5 minutes under a tunnel or going over a bridge and they saw this as fertile territory for growth The Outlaws were the exclusive recipent of the Satan’s Choice methamphetamine in exchange money guns come up across the border for the Satan’s Choice due to this affiliation The Outlaws chapter in Detroit Michigan becomes incredibly powerful and important and the chapter president in Detroit is a vicious biker leader named Harry Taco Bowman Taco has an incredibly powerful position in the Outlaws based in Detroit and that power is only going to grow the Hell’s Angels know that they need to control all of North America both because there are big cities where you’ve got a profit base to sell your drugs but also because drugs can easily flow across the northern border the fact that the Outlaws have moved north of the Border have taken over Satan’s Choice suddenly there’s a big D dma because now all that money all that Drugs North of the border is up for grabs Hell’s Angels had to stop the The Outlaws in one way or the other they had to have a presence to fight them to not allow them to seize control from under them and the Hell’s Angels had their eyes set on a group of bikers that they had originally met at a biker rally in Lono New Hampshire lonia is the oldest longest running motorcycle race event it’s in New Hampshire it’s an annual Gathering of people who wanted to watch the races with like-minded people it’s like the annual pilgrimage the hot bed for inter Club mingling it was at lonia that the Quebec clubs and the New England clubs really started to meet each other for the first time people would party with each other make friends make alliances make deals get in fights sometimes kill each other you got these crazy French Canadians wreaking havoc hand inand with their American counterparts the Border didn’t matter anymore now it was just like we’re all you know motorcycle brothers that’s a really important moment for the Hell’s Angels they needed guys to be able to fight The Outlaws and they saw the popey’s motorcycle club as the number one choice don’t let the name fool you the Popeyes were hardcore and serious motorcycle [Music] club if you want to become El’s Angel you need to communicate me I don’t speak good English but I try I came to Montreal with uh Five Guys that I know and we bought bikes and in 1965 66 we decide to go to Lono and uh we had a patch made just a a small patch because we want to look like a motorcycle club it’s in popey the cruiser one member one of the brothers he asked me said why do you use that name it’s a funny name why using popey is this a comic I’m going to tell you something do you look at papey on TV he’s always in trouble you fight all the time but don’t forget you win all the time Y what okay now understand they were violent they weren’t afraid to get into fights with the police to attempt to kill or WIP out their enemies whether it was Satan’s choice or the Outlaws at their Peak they were well over 200 members across six chapters and there was a wellestablished drug Network that had been set up by the Popeyes and their allies so they were a big deal they were respected eventually feared and this was something that attracted the Hell’s Angels to wanting to patch them over they viewed them as the perfect counterbalance to the alliance that was forged between the Satan’s choice and the Outlaws if the Hell’s Angels were going to compete with Taco Bowman and the Outlaws they were going to need a very strong leader up north one of the popey’s presidents stees bhau who went by the nickname the boss fit the job description perfectly he’s I think one of the best and one of the smarter bikers that they had at that time a cerebral guy B never had a beard and he had blonde hair he was a true biker in every sense of the word he was a well-known brother in the states by mostly the East Coast members B wanted to make money and he knew that the best way to do so would be selling drugs make everyone around him by all accounts gravitated towards him because he was levelheaded he was intelligent lots of people including Sunny Barger were very impressed by bhau and he was smart enough to know you’re going to make better Partners in the future if you don’t resort to threats immediately he had an idea he wanted to corporatize the biker gang to make money from it he instructed his bikers not to wear their colors unless it was a ceremony to look like regular members of society when they weren’t holding an event it was a whole new type of biker that followed e b he could see far away you know the future he could see yeah yeah me too The Outlaws had already planted their flag up north and EES bhau realized that in order for the Popeyes to exist they had to cease to exist they’d have to patch over to become Hell’s Angels generally when it comes to patching over uh a new chapter they needed the unanimous vote of all the important Hell’s Angels Sunny the people in New York they all had to say yes yes on the 5th of December 1977 we went to New York City I had a hard time to cross the border I had to do a few tricks but we were all there and all the the members they represent all the the the chapters in the US they were in in in New York and they took a vote for us may be around 4:00 in the afternoon uh 4:30 they come out and they say you are El angel now the first uh chapter in uh in Canada Montreal became the first one I came back on the 24th of December at night with the the box with the patch and everybody uh they were waiting for me in a place in Montreal so when I came in the place I was like Santa Claus we had somebody there too with the patch with the the machine everything yeah right on the on the spot and it starts from there once they become Hell’s Angels 1977 Eve bhau becomes chapter president and then went on to become the national president in pretty short order and he imposes some of the same rules that sunny Barger does he imposes discipline the second thing he does is he goes to war he goes to war against the Outlaws and it just escalated within 2 months Three Outlaws were killed you can’t make this stuff up it’s a Gangland event a Brotherhood of Outlaws the Hell’s Angels embark on an Enterprise the scope and scale of that had never been seen every part of organized crime it involves the cartel and the mafia thriving in chaos epic clashes brutal Wars that have left dozens and dozens of people dead cement their legacies with sin to kill your own they were his brothers that knife in the back you can’t get out he turned crazy was not the same man all hell was let loose when it comes to murdering someone there is no code this is biblical real stories Eve apach Trudeau if you had the money he would do it he was a Twisted dude we us to take our colors off put them on the ground everybody pissed on them then we’d wear them home from real members it’s not a picture of Jesus on their patch like at the Devil you know this is an outlaw club right Hell’s Angels Kingdom Come Wednesdays at 10 on Vice the conflict the war between the Outlaws and the Hell’s Angels naturally follows wherever they go anywhere in the world so once they set up shop both clubs were immediately at War the Popeyes now becomes part of a global struggle it’s like Russia in the United States where they move into a country and each of them support a faction so now you have the Outlaws and you have the Hell’s Angels both of them fighting for control north of the border and that battle will go on for decades the traditional organized crime they will commit a murder not at a distance they would go up to the person whatever eliminate them put three four bullets in them and nobody else would get hurt the bikers however started using bombs remote bombs and this is where it became very dangerous because you’re putting the rest of the population innocent people in danger a lot more is at stake there’s money there’s guns you’ve got an army behind you meanwhile you have this young upand cominging biker in a steel town in Ontario right outside of Toronto and he would go on to become a major recruit for the Hell’s Angels and change the trajectory of the club forever a guy by the name of Walter stadnik I’m probably going to get into trouble for this but Walter stadnik I think is my favorite Hell’s Angel you could see this guy is really smart right a businessman and a planner Walter stadnik grows up in Hamilton it’s sort of a Dying Rust Belt Town it was a steel town and the industry attracted all kinds of immigration including one Sicilian town that just packed up and all of them moved to Hamilton that’s how the mafia started there and ever since it’s been sort of a center of organized crime stadnick got into the crime game early he was moving hash and marijuana all the way back in high school and that’s how he got his nickname nurget is slaying for nugget like a nugget of hash and because he was physically small he was also known as that I think he’s like 54 160 lbs if he was wet in his biker get up he was very much in Amed with the biker life from a very early age Walter stnick had his eyes on becoming a big-time player in the biker underworld he was going across Canada trying to find the right fit for him in the biker landscape in his early 20s he had just graduated high school he tries to get into the Satan’s Choice which are the dominant Club in Canada at the time and he was denied because he was too small Walter didn’t stand a chance with people like Satan’s choice because he was 5’4 that was a huge barrier to most clubs once he was denied entry into the Satan’s Choice he was like well now I’m going to go for the the Hell’s Angels I guess he had a lot of heart and and he really wanted it badly because of the repeated rejections and really the humiliation Walter suffered he didn’t just have a chip on his shoulder he had a whole lumber yard is just how somebody gets in that way of life you’ve got to have a a need to have a group of supporters around you ironically I think it’s they’re afraid of facing life alone in 1977 Walter statnik is riding with the Wild Ones the wild ones were just regular Street tffs they were like a street gang but on motorcycles leadership of the mafia in Hamilton didn’t want to deal with bikers but a lot of the lieutenants would sort of on the slide and the Wild Ones their sort of signature was bombing a lot of Italian owned businesses would be bombed if they didn’t pay protection money or use certain suppliers but walers aspiring to bigger things he didn’t see a big enough future with the Wild Ones he wants to patch over his Club to the Hell’s Angels in 1978 he takes off to Montreal with a goal to endear himself to the Hell’s Angels and he gets an early taste of what it’s going to be because he gets caught up in an attempted Massacre they came to the clubhouse early in the morning they came at 10 11:00 in the morning their Clubhouse is only a Stones throw away from the barcelon tbon it’s basically a strip club so they keep asking all that I would like to go to the bar would like to go to the bar finally we went stadnik the Wild Ones members and the Hell’s Angels show up to loral they’re all gathered around a big round table having some drinks just enjoying themselves having a good time and there was two guy SI near the wall close to the the stage where the girl was was dancing normally all the guys go to the bar the dancers they all like that but one guy sit his back he didn’t look at the girl look at the door they were dressed in a little more clean cut way what you wouldn’t expect from the the usual clientele so I told that to my uh brother in front of me I said hey check these two guys they got up hadn’t even touched their beers walked over to the table pull up their guns open fire B bang bang everywhere killed a guy sit in front of me and one was saying hey come on let’s go let’s go and the other guy I heard he put a new clip and he’s gone and he came back so me I took a table I was on my knee with the table and he was shooting at me he never touched me [Music] two of the Hell’s Angels members they were hit in the head right away died instantly and Walter was smart enough to slide under the table and he was not hit but three of the other bikers were dead and remarkably Walter stadnik will live and despite all the Bloodshed that will continue Walter stadnik is one of the few Hell’s Angels who is alive to this day it was a mass shooting three dead three wounded and they never caught the guys that did it but it’s widely accepted the shooters were two Outlaws from Detroit in Miami the fact that stadnik was there survived certainly you know put him up a notch in the hell’s angel’s eyes so then he started to prospect for them he kind of gets his foot in the door at that critical stage where B is still around the Hell’s Angels are traveling everywhere they’re on a conquest to get as many alliances fortified as they can you got to remember in the late ’70s early ‘ 80s this was when that recruiting war between the Hell’s Angels and the Outlaws was at its peak bodies were dropping daily and this Mayhem is about to hit a hell’s Angel’s King where he lives Eve bhau realizes the need to absolutely crush his enemies there is testimony that he is involved in the assassination the bombing death of an Outlaws rival but he’ll pay for that heavy is the head you kill a guy sit in front of me that wears the helmet sooner or later Everybody Talks this it’s real Hell’s Angels Kingdom Come Wednesdays at 10: on Vice at this point things were being blown up on a regular basis and just like now you you didn’t really know who your friend was and who your enemy was McDonald’s doesn’t mind competition I mean they may not like it but they’re not going to try to blow up Wendy’s the Hell’s Angels are not that kind they want to be the only joint in town by 1983 yees bhau had been waging a brutal war against the Outlaws for 5 years dozens of bikers have been shot dozens more killed and yees BAU and the Hell’s Angels are quickly becoming the most dominant Club so Taco Bowman and the Outlaws knew in order for them to succeed in Canada they needed to get rid of EES bhau but you got to remember just as ruthless as yees bhau is is as smart as he is he knows it’s better to make friends than enemies so in September 1983 he decides to extend an olive branch to the remaining Satan Choice bikers and give them an opportunity to become Hell’s Angels he meets one of them at a bar to negotiate but he soon realizes that his enemies are a lot closer than he originally [Music] thought he was in the bar with that Satan choice and his wife and there was two guys in the other side of the bar and his kid brother did The Outlaws know that this negotiation with the Satan’s Choice was going down did they know that bhau was going to be present still nobody knows for sure the kid went outside so boss went outside to talk to him as the story goes this guy was desperate to become a member of The Outlaws in order to become a full p member he would have to do some dirty work and that Dirty Work meant murder and he pull a gun and he shot e buto once buto was killed they lost their bearing in a way put them into disarray a bit all the expansion that he’d been working so hard on kind of cooled that it took time to the club to come back and their feet B and me were really close so uh it hurt me bad when he die it was hard for me and for everybody and at his funeral it’s one of the first big biker funerals 2,000 people show up to pay tribute he’s become a hero to hundreds of bikers around the world and it’ll really set the stage for other big biker funerals but also other big and even scarier smarter leaders north of the Border it would take a few years for a new leader to emerge at the Forefront of the Hell’s Angels in Canada but at this time Walter stadnick is finding an incredible amount of traction as he climbs the ladder of power within the L’s Angels he became very tactful he was known for educing other gangs rather than taking them over by force and they reacted to his diplomacy rather than his toughness he’s smart and people can see it his fellow bikers respect him and fear him and he might even have a pathway to the top but the hand of God deals him a nearly fatal blow Walter was actually on his way to a memorial for bhau a buddy year after he died and it happened to be the same day that the pope was coming to Canada for the first time you can’t make this stuff up it’s September 1984 head of the Catholic church is coming to Montreal there’s a priest among many who are making their pilgrimage driving into Montreal meanwhile Walter stadnik A H Angel wants to pay tribute to his leader Eve bhau we leave from the clubhouse and we were riding fast I was the second bike on the right side and there was just after me the road was like a te so I could see a car coming on the right side he saw us so he put the break but he just blocked the road I couldn’t pass so I put my bike on the side and my bike jammed under the car and the gas was leaking on the road and me I fall in the in the ditch the other side but n he wasn’t after me so he put his bike on the side but his bike Jam in my bike and him too his bike slide on the road and make sparks and light the fire a big big big uh mushroom fire 50 ft in the air and he was in that fire the driver of the car was a priest when you’re riding a motorcycle and you get in a crash it’ll almost always be one nothing for the car not you on the motorcycle remarkably Walter stadnick survives but he’s back badly scarred all the other uh Brothers they took the N good from the fire and at the same time a pickup truck arrive on the side so we leave to to go to the hospital and N his is app was melting in his face he was screaming like crazy all the way maybe a month later I went with two other members to see or at the hospital in Hamilton all his nose was gone could see the bone it was a bad bad shape bad bad shape I couldn’t recognize him you can’t make this stuff up it’s a Gangland event a brother hood of Outlaws the Hell’s Angels embark on an Enterprise the scope and scale of that had never been seen every part of organized crime it involves the cartel and the mafia thriving in chaos epic clashes brutal Wars that have left dozens and dozens of people dead cement their legacies with sin to kill your own they were his brothers that knife in the back you can’t get out he turned crazy was not the same man all hell was let loose when it comes to murdering someone there is no code this is biblical real stories Eve apach Trudeau if you had the money he would do it he was a twisted dude we used to take our colors off put them on the ground everybody pissed on them then we’d wear them home from real members it’s not a picture of Jesus on their patch like at the Devil you know this is an outlaw club right Hell’s Angels Kingdom Come Wednesdays at 10 on Vice [Music] stadnik was uh badly injured for the rest of his life severe damage he lost some fingers and he was burned so badly that uh his face changed nurget was so badly injured in this accident a lot of people were predicting the end of Walter stnick ultimately though it only proved to be a speed bump on his path to the throne Walter stadnik becomes the most shadowy organized crime figure he is like the boogeyman combined with Don Corleone combined with clay from Sons of Anarchy all kind of rolled into one and stadnik is this kind of Wizard of Oz Puppeteer that is heard from a lot but not seen a lot during that stretch of time when Walter stadnik is behind the scenes it leaves what appears to be a power vacuum at least publicly this leaves an opening for another Hell’s Angel to emerge as a Powerhouse a guy by the name of Maurice bé who people called Mom M buet was a tough guy and he was described as a psycho very early in his life because of the amount of violence he always had around him he was in and out of jail most of his life he used a lot of drugs but he realized that this was business there was a lot of money to be made and he got clean and decided to make a real play for the business in in Quebec Maurice mambe was a crime Lord and I think his leadership style his approach to the biker underworld was really ahead of its time I don’t think he was somebody that really cared much about riding motorcycles mambe wanted to be a boss a a crime Lord and he saw the Hell’s Angels as as his best way to achieve that you had Walter stadnik who had the cold calculating business sense of Sunny Barger Walter stadnik will expand the hills angels North of the Border but you needed a coldblooded general Maurice mé had that willingness to absolutely eliminate his enemies and eventually do something that Sunny Barger would never do take on the state take on judges politicians prison guards so you needed that combination you needed Walter and Maurice that’s what made the Hells Angels so powerful north of the border to this day there are people that can debate for hours about who was really the number one and who was really the number two was M bu over Walter stadnik or was Walter stadnik over mambe but there’s no doubt when these two guys met up and put their heads together that it was going to be magic for the Hell’s Angels going forward Eve Trudeau was Notorious for being the best killer for the Hell’s Angels the Hell’s Angels embark on an Enterprise it involves the bikers the Mexican cartel and the mafia it will end up being worth upwards of a billion dollars they’ve expanded this is the McDonald’s of organized crime Walter stadnik he was the brains behind it mom was the Brun mom bu power got to his head he just lost it suddenly they could kill anybody anywhere his cocaine abuse got worse and he just became more unhinge and more Reckless as the time went on he got a from a hooker that he picked up who didn’t have any teeth since 2009 there’s been over a 100 murders in this war and I’m not going to come and tell you again the next time I break your head they have no idea they have the Jeffrey dmer of the Hell’s Angels the hit involved separating this man’s head from his torso that’s essentially decapitation this shit’s real
