Conclusion 220 - 7 - RESULT 221 2005 CanLII 24240 (ON SC) - 8 - INTRODUCTION [1] Steven Patrick Lindsay and Raymond Lawrence Bonner are members of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club. Following an investigation by the police, they were arrested on January 31, 2002. They are jointly charged with the offence of extortion. They also are jointly charged with the offence of committing extortion for the benefit of, or at the direction of, or in association with a criminal organization. Mr. Bonner alone is charged with breach of recognizance. 2005 CanLII 24240 (ON SC) PART I: THE EXTORTION CHARGE A. The Participants [2] In January 2002 M.M. lived with his wife and two sons in a quiet residential community. Their house was located at the end of a dead-end street, immediately beside a park. [3] Mr. M. sold satellite television equipment. Satellite systems initially were unavailable in Canada, so he imported repossessed systems from the United States, fixed them up and sold them. After about a year, he started selling new systems. A system consisted of a receiver, a remote control, a card, and a dish. The dish received the signal, and the receiver processed it and displayed it on television. The card was needed to access programming. It had to be activated to work. [4] The source of the signal for the satellite provider Direct TV was in the United States. Direct TV activated cards for its subscribers, who paid a monthly fee. [5] Mr. M. created a device that enabled him to program cards so that they were activated without the customer paying the monthly subscription fee to Direct TV. He recognized that this was dishonest, but contended it was not illegal because of the unsettled state of the law at the time. - 9 - [6] Direct TV sent out a signal from time to time that rendered such unauthorized cards inoperable. When that happened, Mr. M. fixed customers’ inoperable cards so that they would work again. [7] In January 2002 Steven Lindsay and Raymond Bonner were both full members of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club. They belonged to the Woodbridge chapter. Mr. Lindsay also was known by his club name “Tiger”. Mr. Lindsay had been a full member, and Mr. Bonner a prospect member of the Para-Dice Riders Motorcycle Club, prior to December 29, 2000, when they joined the Hells Angels. 2005 CanLII 24240 (ON SC) [8] It was admitted that on January 23 and 31, 2002, Mr. Bonner was bound by a condition of a recognizance to keep the peace and be of good behaviour. B. Mr. M.’s Business Dealings with Christopher Maskell [9] Mr. M. met Christopher Maskell in late 1997 or early 1998. After several meetings, he traded one of the programmer devices to Mr. Maskell in return for circuit boards. [10] Mr. M. put together a box that activated cards so that programming for another American satellite provider, Dish Network, could be accessed without payment of a subscription fee. Internet software was available that would do the same thing, but it was hard to use. The activation box was user friendly. Mr. M. made four such boxes. The hardware for a single activation box cost him $200. About two hours of labour was involved in creating a box. [11] Mr. Maskell saw Mr. M. use one of the boxes, and wanted to buy it. Initially Mr. M. did not want to sell the box. He told Mr. Maskell that all the cards would become inoperable at some point because Dish Network could disable them, and he could not fix them once that happened. Eventually he agreed to sell one box to Mr. Maskell for $20,000. Mr. Maskell did not have the cash. He gave equipment and cards to Mr. M., and agreed to pay him $8000 cash in addition. This was the biggest sale that Mr. M. had made to that point. He did not agree that it represented a “ripoff” of the purchaser. - 10 - [12] On the evening of December 23, 2000, he met Mr. Maskell at the Barrie Drive-In. Mr. M. arrived first because he had to set up equipment to demonstrate that the box worked. Mr. Maskell arrived with two young men and an older man. Mr. Maskell got into Mr. M.’s truck. Mr. Maskell told him not to talk about money with the other men, because he was making a profit on the transaction. [13] Mr. M. demonstrated the operation of the box to the two younger men in Mr. Maskell’s presence. The two men went back to their car. Mr. Maskell spoke to them there. He came back to Mr. M. and gave him $8000 in exchange for the box. 2005 CanLII 24240 (ON SC) [14] Mr. M. was cross-examined about whether the cash and value of product totalling $20,000 went through his books. He said that he was not sure about the portion that was product, it probably went into inventory.

    Riding at the Margins

    Riding at the Margins International Media and the Construction of a Generic Outlaw Biker Identity in the South Island of New Zealand, circa 1950 – 1975. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Cultural Anthropology By David Haslett University of Canterbury Christchurch, New Zealand 2007 Abstract New Zealand has had a visible recreational motorcycle culture since the 1920s, although the forerunners of the later ‘outlaw’ motorcycle clubs really only started to emerge as loose-knit biker cliques in the 1950s. The first recognised New Zealand ‘outlaw club’, the Auckland chapter of the Californian Hell’s Angels M.C., was established on July 1961 (Veno 2003: 31). This was the Angels’ first international chapter, and only their fifth chapter overall at that time. Further outlaw clubs emerged throughout both the North and the South Island of New Zealand from the early 1960s, and were firmly established in both islands by the end of 1975. Outlaw clubs continue to flourish to this day. The basic question that motivated this thesis was how (the extent to which) international film, literature, media reports and photographic images (circa 1950 – 1975) have influenced the generic identity adopted by ‘outlaw’ motorcycle clubs in New Zealand, with particular reference to the South Island clubs. The focus of the research was on how a number of South Island New Zealand outlaw bikers interpreted international mass media representations of ‘outlaw’ biker culture between 1950 – 1975. This time span was carefully chosen after considerable research, consultation and reflection. It encompasses a period when New Zealand experienced rapid development of a global mass media, where cultural images were routinely communicated internationally in (relatively) real time.

Graeme Melcher* Hit Them Where it Hurts: State Responses to Biker Gangs in Canada From civil and criminal forfeiture, to "gangsterism" offences in the Criminal Code, Canada does not lack for tools to address biker gangs. Yet attempts to stamp out bikers have met with little to no success. State responses to criminal organizations should use those organizations' own structures and symbols of power against them. A gang's reputation may be effectively used against a gang, but this strategy poses significant challenges to prosecution. Attempts to use a gang's internal hierarchy and administrative structure can succeed, but may only produce circumstantial findings if not supported by sufficient and substantial evidence. Attempts to combat gang violence by targeting their clubhouses, whether through forfeiture provisions or through municipal bylaws, may prove the most effective methods of targeting biker gangs. The issue is not a lack of resources; those resources are used inefficiently and ineffectively.

    Running Head: in and out of ABORIGINAL GANG LIFE-GOODWILL

    IN AND OUT OF ABORIGINAL GANG LIFE: PERSPECTIVES OF ABORIGINAL EX-GANG MEMBERS by Alanaise O. Goodwill B.Sc., Simon Fraser University, 1998 M.A., The University of British Columbia, 2003 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIRMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Counselling Psychology) THE UNIVERISITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) June 2009 © Alanaise O. Goodwill, 2009 ii ABSTRACT This research project generated a categorical scheme to describe the facilitation of gang entry and exit for Aboriginal ex-gang members using the Critical Incident Technique (Flanagan, 1954; Woolsey, 1986) as a method of qualitative data analysis. Former gang members responded to the questions: (a) What facilitated gang entry for you? (b) What facilitated gang exit for you? Participants provided 103 and 136 critical incidents which were categorized into two separate category schemes each containing 13 different categories. The 13 categories for gang entry were; engaging in physical violence, proving one’s worth, hanging around delinquent activity, family involved in gangs and following a family pattern; going to prison, gang becoming family and support system, looking up to gang members and admiring gang lifestyle, becoming dependant on gang, experiencing unsafe or unsupportive parenting practices, gaining respect by rank increase, reacting to authority, caught in a cycle of fear, and partying. The 13 categories for gang exit were; working in the legal workforce, accepting support from family or girlfriend, helping others stay out of or move away from gang life, not wanting to go back to jail, accepting responsibility for family, accepting guidance and protection, participating in ceremony, avoiding alcohol, publically expressing that you are out of the gang, wanting legitimate relationships outside gang life, experiencing a native brotherhood, stopping self from reacting like a gangster, and acknowledging the drawbacks of gang violence.

    History of Gangs in the United States

    1 ❖ History of Gangs in the United States Introduction A widely respected chronicler of British crime, Luke Pike (1873), reported the first active gangs in Western civilization. While Pike documented the existence of gangs of highway robbers in England during the 17th century, it does not appear that these gangs had the features of modern-day, serious street gangs. Later in the 1600s, London was “terrorized by a series of organized gangs calling themselves the Mims, Hectors, Bugles, Dead Boys [and they] fought pitched battles among themselves dressed with colored ribbons to distinguish the different factions” (Pearson, 1983, p. 188). According to Sante (1991), the history of street gangs in the United States began with their emer- gence on the East Coast around 1783, as the American Revolution ended. These gangs emerged in rapidly growing eastern U.S. cities, out of the conditions created in large part by multiple waves of large-scale immigration and urban overcrowding. This chapter examines the emergence of gang activity in four major U.S. regions, as classified by the U.S. Census Bureau: the Northeast, Midwest, West, and South. The purpose of this regional focus is to develop a better understanding of the origins of gang activity and to examine regional migration and cultural influences on gangs themselves. Unlike the South, in the Northeast, Midwest, and West regions, major phases characterize gang emergence. Table 1.1 displays these phases. 1 2 ❖ GANGS IN AMERICA’S COMMUNITIES Table 1.1 Key Timelines in U.S. Street Gang History Northeast Region (mainly New York City) First period: 1783–1850s · The first ganglike groups emerged immediately after the American Revolution ended, in 1783, among the White European immigrants (mainly English, Germans, and Irish).
