Daniel Tiessen had friends with HA

Daniel Tiessen, 52, is charged with four counts of conspiring with others to commit an indictable offence, as well as threatening death or bodily harm. Drug dealer Tiessen lined up outlaw bikers to scoop up Devin Alderton and then have everything from his legs broken to screws drilled into his head. Other ideas included syringes filled with bleach. This was related to efforts to recover monies owed. As cops listened in Tiessen spoke in graphic terms of how he and his associates would deal with their target. “I want this fucking done clean and professional,” Tiessen said in one police intercept.

The muscle hired to carry out the kidnapping was expected to be the HA, “they’re one-percenters — they mean fucking business,” said Tiessen. One of the meetings referred to was with a Hells Angels vice-president. As the plot moved closer to fruition the cops swooped in.

Safwan Choudhry figures masks for infidel - Update

Update: While my family and I remain stranded in Calgary seeking answers, explanation and/or an update, we are just learning from @CBCNews that @WestJet has instead opted to ban my family from flying with the airline. https://t.co/nUBePFXREM — Safwan Choudhry (@SafwanChoudhry) September 10, 2020

Choudhry figures prominently in the Iranian Muslim community. He is director of communications for Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at, the largest organized Muslim group in Canada.

Safwan Choudhry

Safwan Choudhry, who was not wearing a mask, told reporters that his family was targeted over the mask policy and the flight crew was wrong. Choudhry and his family were travelling on employee travel passes and refused to abide by Westjet's 'zero tolerance' mask policy. The flight crew requested that the family step off the plane for the safety of other passengers. They refused. Choudhry described it as " ... the most horrific & dehumanizing treatment"

Safwan Choudhry claims he was subjected to Islamic discrimination. It's appearing this man is incapable of making his child wear a mask OR leaving the aircraft when requested to do so. OF COURSE he should be banned to protect others from his irresponsible conduct that is grossly unacceptable. To wrap himself in Islam as a victim is an insult.

Lucchese mobster poses with granny

Lucchese mobster Vincent Bruno and his 95-year-old grandmother were captured in this court evidence photo with some herb. The gangster and his walker-using granny are standing next to several large bags that contained “20 or so pounds” of pot. Granny made no mention of having to maneuver her walker around bales of pot when she wrote a letter to the sentencing judge. “I miss my grandson so much.” Racketeering conspiracy charges were laid against four Lucchese gangsters, former acting Lucchese crime boss Michael Madonna, his second-in-command Steven Crea Sr and associates Christopher Londonio and Terrence Caldwell. They were found guilty.

Vincent Bruno

Luchese captain Steven Crea Jr. admitted to plotting with his father, underboss Steven Crea, to kill Bonanno family associate Carl Ulzheimer in 2012 for dissing the elder Crea. Mobster Vincent Bruno failed to carry out the hit at Ulzheimer’s Bronx home, and the dispute was hashed out before he could try again. Bruno took a plea deal.

A slow getaway: Japan's geriatric Yakuza

The Yamaguchi-gumi syndicate is led by 78-year-old Shinobu Tsukasa

51.2% of regular yakuza members are aged 50 or over, a sharp increase as a result of demographics and legal crackdowns. Yakuza attempts to recruit young men with promises of easy money is failing. Instead, new recruits face decades of risk-taking on behalf of their bosses and long prison sentences if they get caught – all without prospect of a pension.

The yakuza are becoming irrelevant in Japanese society.

Stricter laws have made a life of crime unappealing: yakuza are forbidden from opening bank accounts, obtaining a credit card, taking out insurance policies or even signing a contract for a mobile phone. The ageing of criminals in Japan has coincided with a steady decline in membership. At its peak in the 1960s, the yakuza had more than 180,000 members. Today, just 14,400 are registered mobsters – along with 13,800 associates.

Juarez authorities cracking down on ‘chocolate cars’

In Juarez, they’re “autos chuecos” (crooked cars). City, state and federal authorities are getting ready to impound illegally imported vehicles from the US. “Many crimes — up to 70% — are committed using vehicles with no license plates or stickers that are neither legal nor issued by any authority,” Chihuahua Gov. Javier Corral said.

Up to 60,000 autos chuecos operate in Juarez.

The term "chocolate cars" is a play on words from chueco, or crooked cars.

Crooked cars have circulated on Mexican border cities for 50 years. Vehicle owners blame high Mexican import fees that make paying bribes or even losing the vehicle cheaper than legally bringing it into Mexico. Only the federal government can legally seize the unregistered vehicles, but local cops and the state police can impound them. Crooked cars, chocolate cars, los pafas, irregulars. There are many names.

HA Earl Noseworthy wanted his colors back - Fail

All had to stop near Highway 20 for a police check.

Earl Noseworthy wanted to stop the confiscation of his "offending property" which cops said was being used "a tool of intimidation to facilitate crimes." On August 10, 2018, East Toronto chapter sergeant-at-arms Noseworthy and other HA came to Montérégie for Canada Run.

The check was not fast enough for Noseworthy, who threatened to shove a camera up a policewoman's ass. Even bikers present were said to be left open mouthed at the dopey comment. Noseworthy plead guilty to a reduced obstruction charge. He was sentenced to a 12-month suspended sentence and 50 hours of community service. He also had to donate $ 1,000. His efforts to retrieve his club jewelry and colors failed. The judge ruled Noseworthy deliberately chose to dress to display the culture of violence and intimidation of bikers, and that his jacket, his jewelry, and his rings are worn for this purpose.
