Secrets of the Hells Angels (2024)

This series is so interesting! I’m a tattoo artist in Ottawa and in the past 5 years I’ve met a few people who were/are involved in the Angels, and I’ve always been curious about how criminal they truly are. Over the years I’d hear the odd news bit here and there but I’d never really paid much attention to it. This series has been an eye opener!

My mentor’s brother, Mike Clairoux, is a former Hells Angel. Mike and some drug dealer guy, Lee Marrazzo, are charged with the bludgeoning death of Greg Slewidge, a Hells Angel prospect. The trial is set for later this year.
I’ve heard lots of crazy stories from my mentor. He wasn’t a member but hung out with them when he was younger and got up to no good. Like making grenades and that sort of thing. He did time, paid his dues and changed his life around, but his brother is a crazy MFer. Literally. I’ve met him a few times. He’s nice enough and seems normal enough, but talk in the shop (and directly from Mark) was always to be careful around him.
Mark says Mike is innocent. I’m not so sure.
