 Welcome into the original gangsters podcast. I'm your host Scott Bernstein another quick hitter edition going back up to Canada to give some breaking news in terms of the Montreal Hells Angels are going to be getting a big name back into the fold, or have gotten a big name back in the fold. Marvin Casper one met major shot collar during the 2000s for a faction of the Montreal Hells Angels did about 15 years in prison and recently just got paroled coming back into a environment that's quite charged right now a lot of tensions mounting or in some ways have already broken out into the open. You have some consternation between the Hells Angels and the Italian mafia in Montreal the risotto crime family, a lot of shifting allegiances are, you know we could spend hours days unpacking the political machinations of the Montreal underworld right now, but the Hells Angels. Who are suspects right now in the murder the June 2023 murder of renegade Italian mob. Bigger Francesco check del basso who had months earlier tried to assassinate Leonardo risotto who survived that assassination attempt. There were rumors that the Hells Angels were backing del basso's play and then del basso was murdered in Montreal in June, leaving a meeting with Hells Angels Montreal shot collar Marty robert. So, we don't know exactly what's going on with law enforcement other than that they're looking into all this. They've arrested people with that were involved in the risotto shooting and getting will met back in, you know, back in action. And this is a guy who, you know, is a guide in wall to use that expression, biker boss a guy that lives it to to the core, headed the an infiltration of the construction industry in Montreal in the 90s and 2000s and was working as a liaison to the risotto's. So that should help. And just the Montreal Hells Angels are just over the last couple years they recognize the instability within the Italian mob orbit and how it affects them. And they've been, you know, building an arsenal of power houses. And he just Casper, you know, adds to that they brought Teflon Rob Barletta up from out from London. And previously the boss of the Niagara chapter into Montreal. He had his house burned down. Last month in an arson fire. That's probably involved in all of these. All this conflict that's been going on in Montreal now for a decade and a half, or roughly a decade a decade and a half but Casper will met is back in Montreal paroled after I believe 14 years in prison and it will be interesting to see how he integrates in with Marty those guys. Right now robert is the top shot caller with the Montreal Hells Angels. Nurgut is in, you know, out in the Hamilton area in Ontario he's still the boss of bosses when it comes to Hells Angels in Canada but Marty is kind of like the mom Boucher, if you will, modern day version has a lot of similar leadership attributes and people really like him and he's known as kind of a politician a guy that can get along with a lot of different groups, just like Casper. So we'll see how, how this all plays out but Casper will met back in Montreal after a decade and a half in a Canadian prison, I believe he's about 54 years old, and in all this times going up for parole he always refused to disengage from the Hells Angels so he was asked to and will you not affiliate with them when you come out and he was like I'm always going to affiliate with them I'm a Hells Angel until I die. That's who Casper will met is. So, you know, he comes back into a scene I'm not sure where Marty robert was 15 years. So, I'm sure they know each other, and I'm guessing they're going to work well with each other and then you add and I said, Barletta and a couple other guys that are robert loyalists. So, you know, we'll be reporting on everything that's going on in, you know, Canadian underworld affairs here at the OG pot you're always going to get the best analysis and the fastest breaking news when it comes to that. Marvin Casper will met back on the scene in the Canadian biker underworld for Jimmy who will be back on the long form podcast with me later this week. And for Benny behind the glass I'm Scott branching OG pot.
