Giles the "quintessential" Hells Angel "

Thursday 14 February 2008

Three men on trial for drug trafficking were engaged in a "joint venture" and were in business on behalf of the East End chapter of the Hells Angels, prosecutor Martha Devlin said Wednesday.Questioned by defence lawyers about wiretaps involving David Giles, David Revell and Richard Rempel, Devlin cited several calls involving Giles, a full-patch member of the club, that she says prove that the men were working together to traffic cocaine in association with the notorious motorcycle club.
One phone call had Giles referring to how Revell had made $30,000 for him in the past several months.That all simply demonstrates that Revell and Giles are indeed in business," she said. "That establishes that there's a joint venture . . . and that there is an association between the two of them."
Citing another call, she said it was proof that all three men were involved in the joint venture and it all went to aid in the bid to expand the East End chapter from Vancouver to Kelowna.Revell and Rempel were arrested in April 2005 after eight kilograms of cocaine were seized, three from a storage locker in the Kelowna area and five from a secret compartment in a Chrysler vehicle. Giles was arrested a few months later.All three are charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking and possession for the purpose of trafficking for the benefit of a criminal organization.Devlin called Giles, a 20-year-member of the club, the "quintessential" Hells Angel "and there's not a citizen he meets who he doesn't make sure knows who they're dealing with."
"He's got the jewelry, the clothing, all the paraphernalia at this house, the plaques and the stickers."Defence lawyers are expected to begin their final submissions Thursday.
