HA Courtney Vasseur ordered extradited - 20 years on table

A B.C. judge has approved the extradition of Courtney Vasseur and Curtis Lehner. The Minister of Justice will decide if they should be surrendered to the US. Barring appeals the boys are good and screwed now.
Lawyer Teresa Mitchell-Banks said allegations against her client Courtney Vasseur, 42, were a house of cards. Her arguments likely won't fly far because extradition proceedings means it isn't the B.C. court's role to assess evidence.
Courtney 'Court' Vasseur is from the Nomads chapter of the Hells Angels.
Vasseur was busted along with Curtis Lehner and seven others. HERE Vasseur faces US charges of fraud, conspiracy and money laundering. The biker had a hand in 9 pump and dumps over 2 years and is looking at 20 years in a Federal US pen. “Through their pump and dump schemes, Lehner, Vasseur ... and their co-conspirators generated at least approximately $35m in proceeds from the sale of the shares they secretly controlled.” The 10 hail from Canada, the United Kingdom, Bulgaria, Spain, Monaco, Turkey and the Bahamas. The SEC is suing David Sidoo, and seven others, accusing them of pump and dump schemes to defraud investors of US $145m.
Vasseur used aliases 'Cyrill Vetsch' and 'Arctic Shark.' HERE Vasseur formerly worked for Aggressive Roadbuilders, a Langley company that went under in 2008 after Matthew Brooks and Kirk Roberts defrauded Scotiabank of $6m.
