Undercover Agent Infiltrates the Infamous Hells Angels Biker Gang

Here’s a new crime doc series to binge watch.

Being a crime journalist means that I’m intrigued by all different facets of criminal activity and thanks to this show, outlaw biker gangs are now my newest obsession.

In the new A&E docuseries, former members, leaders and even victims of the badass Hells Angels brotherhood including former undercover agent Jay Dobyns who infiltrated the notorious gang, examine the history of the group of outlaws to uncover the organization’s darkest secrets.

In the end the government chose to end Operation Black Biscuit which centered around their infiltration of the gang before Dobyns got his “patch”. In the biker world get patched is equivalent to being made in the mob. It’s a symbol of status in the outlaw biker underworld.

Dobyns went so deep into the motorcycle gang lifestyle that the government felt it was too dangerous of a liability to continue as they could no longer keep a handle on him or the operation.

Dobyns said he had no choice but to go full throttle gangster or risk getting killed if his cover was ever blown and it was revealed he was a cop.

BMF: Big Meech Petitions Courts for 2025 Release

Big Meech is seeking early release from the feds and hoping to be released by year 2025.

Initially given a 30-year sentence, Big Meech had it reduced to 27 years (324 months) by U.S. District Judge David M. Lawson in June 2021.

Meech’s brother Terry Flenory was also handed a hefty sentence but he has been released due to good behavior. Terry was released from prison during Covid meanwhile Demetrius Flenory, the elder of the Flenory Brothers, is still incarcerated after multiple requests for earlier release.

According to HipHopDX, Meech’s lawyer Brittany K Barnett argued that the former BMF leader, demonstrating exemplary conduct in prison, achieving educational milestones, and staying trouble-free since 2021, deserves credit under U.S.S.G. Amendment 782,making a case for his release by 2025.

“Notably, Federal Bureau of Prisons (B.O.P.) staff observed that ‘Flenory has displayed a dedication to remaining physically fit and has taken it upon himself to lead and teach exercise classes to other inmates,” Barnett explained. “He also leads regular focus groups out of various self-help books and appears to [have] a positive mental health effect of other inmates.”

Earlier this week, Barnett filed a motion in the Eastern District of Michigan, aiming for a “retroactive application” of sentencing guidelines.

There has been no decision made on the request as of yet.

BMF: Chad JBo Brown Re-Arrested on Federal Drug Charges in St Louis

BMF affiliate and former Big Meech right hand man Chad JBo Brown was re-arrested on federal drugs charges in his home city of St. Louis for the alleged distribution of methamphetamine, fentanyl, and cocaine as well as fraud. The alleged fraud is based on the receipt of a Covid 19 PPP loan intended for struggling businesses and employees.

JBo was also arrested during the initial Black Mafia Family bust that landed Demetrius ‘Big Meech’ and his brother Terry ‘Southwest T’ Flenory and his former girlfriend Tonesa ‘Toni’ Welch (and a host of others) in federal prison. The federal indictments stemmed from a massive DEA raid on the drug organization back in 2005. He ended up serving 11 years on a 15-20 year plea deal for those charges.

According to news reports, more than two dozen Black Mafia Family affiliates were also arrested last week in connection to various charges after a bust recovered a large amount of drugs, firearms and cash. As of today a total of 34 people have been charged in the investigation.
