Notorious HA Jason Arkinstall, 51, has been denied parole in part because of his continued association with the HAMC behind bars. |
Arkinstall of the Mission Hells Angels told two parole board members that it wasn’t his fault that there were so many other bikers in his jail. He told the board that since being denied day parole in July 2024, he had made “a concerted effort to avoid OMG members.”
Arkinstall was “extremely remorseful” when he was sentenced to six years and three months in prison in October 2022. The high profile Mission HA was busted with Lawrence Edward Dwyer near Creston in October 2020 and charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking and drug smuggling. The two ran back into Canada after being spotted in Idaho with five duffel bags of cocaine and meth worth more than US $2m. The two rabbits fled to Canada, leaving the dope in the U.S. 38kg of cocaine and 90kg of meth was seized.
Arkinstall was acquitted in Calgary in 2011 of uttering threats against cops. The judge said Arkinstall was ‘physically abused.’ In 2013 Arkinstall was charged in Spain with HA Chad Wilson for trying to smuggle half a tonne of Colombian cocaine into the country. They were convicted and returned to Canada. Wilson was shot to death under the Golden Ears Bridge in 2018.
