Jason Arkinstall’s sentencing is finally underway and it’s alleged that the veteran gangster is somewhat remorseful for his actions. Prosecutors on the other hand believe that the biker’s only motivation was profit, when he attempted to bring 90 kilograms of meth and 119 kg of cocaine into B.C. from Idaho on October 23, 2020. This was 2 years ago and he’s now about to finally face justice, alongside his associate in Lawrence Edward Dwyer, the 48 year old owner of the truck that the drugs were allegedly smuggled in. Long story short, the two ran back into Canada after being spotted in Idaho with five duffel bags of cocaine and meth worth more than US $2m.

It turns out that a “bystander” was filming his arrest on January 17, 2017 – when Les Kaminski (officer that was testifying against the biker) was criminally charged with perjury and assault with a weapon, while his partner constable Brant Derrick has been charged with assault causing bodily harm.
The charges relate to a 2008 arrest involving high-profile Hells Angel Jason Arkinstall:
