Here in Western Pa,the dominant Club is the Paga*ns. In the last few years,there have been several members convicted of various crimes,but due to the structure, the Feds can't prove any conspiracy whether it be the Club as a whole,or an individual Chapter.
For example,a Pag*an nicknamed Rodent is doing 28 years for the fatal shooting of a guy who wore a Hel*s Ang*ls support shirt.
Now arguably this crime was committed to protect the honor of the Pag*ns, and could have been spun to argue that it was done in furtherance of the Enterprise (Rico language),but again,it couldn't be proven.
The former National President of the Club was busted for selling coke and meth,but it couldn't be proven that anyone but him was involved.By the way, he was released when the judge overturned the conviction due to the Feds totally screwing up the procedure to be used when employing a wired up snitch.
Also the President of the Pittsburgh chapter went to federal prison for coke sales but again the trail led nowhere beyond his own activity.
In most of the Pag*n convictions in this area,the accused plead guilty,and get pretty lenient sentences,so appeals are not always applicable. Also these guys either buy off or intimidate the judges in order to get these sentences.
Having said all this, the original thread concerned the seizure of a Club's Colors,and that will never happen
