Ireland's Mr Big nailed - Jonathan Gill

Jonathon Gill (Mr. Big) has finally landed in the shit. Gill, 44, appeared in court charged in connection with the murder of Robbie Lawlor. Lawlor was shot dead on 4 April 2020. Gill was arrested by Gardaí as part of a joint investigation into the murder with the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI). Gill was remanded in custody to Cloverhill Prison in Dublin.

Daming details came from 'Encrochat' encrypted conversations in which Gill, says his "mate will do it" and "pop him," ahead of Lawlor's murder. The Irish have a propensity to protect the identities of their biggest gangsters.

Poster boy is Jonathan Gill, a man of large Dublin underworld reputation who, for many years, was known to the Irish public only as 'Mr. Big.' It was reported Martin ‘Viper’ Foley and Mr. Big had joined forces as debt collectors.

Foley pleaded guilty after 'Viper Debt Recovery' threatened to slit a man’s throat over a €4,000 debt.

‘The Viper’ has more than 40 convictions for offences including assault, robbery and possession of weapons. He has been the subject of several hit attempts, including in Dublin in January 2008 by the Kinahan cartel.

Paschal Kelly

While he has dodged major convictions, Jonathan Gill is seen by many to be among the top criminals in Ireland. Paschal Kelly and Jonathan Gill controlled a crime gang involved in bank robberies and drug dealing, CAB have claimed in legal documents. The alleged ties between the two men were laid bare in a case brought by the bureau against Kelly over €20k found in a bank account. CAB have described Gill as “a close criminal associate” of Kelly.

Jonathan Gill - Mr. Big

In 2020 the Irish press referred to Jonathan Gill as 'Mr. Big' exclusively. Gill, like Glen Ward 'Mr. Flashy', was warned his life is in danger. This likely explains Irish censorship. Every gangster has death threats. Irish authorities ought not give their worst gangsters a pass. Gardai suspect a Dublin man who transported over €1m in proceeds of crime was working as a ‘gillie’ for the gang led by the north Dublin crime boss Mr Big. Gillie is officially defined as 1 · a male attendant on a Scottish Highland chief ; 2 · a fishing and hunting guide ; 3 · a shoe with a low top and decorative lacing

Irish press are reporting 'Mr Big' was behind a million euro haul of cocaine seized at Dublin airport in late 2023. The 16kg of cocaine was seized in an operation which was led by intelligence fed through the Garda’s liaison office in Bogota, Colombia. The drugs were tracked from South America through Germany and onto Dublin where it was set to be distributed. Two of the men in custody are Dublin Airport workers who are employed through a third party contractor.

Wedding money laundering operations nailed

The U.S.  sanctioned 8 Canadian cryptocurrency businesses, accusing them of aiding the Iranian regime and helping kingpin Ryan Wedding launder drug profits. The U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) said the businesses in Toronto and Vancouver allowed sanctioned Iranian entities to use their services, providing the regime with a financial lifeline and the ability to continue to finance terrorism and proxy groups.

• Diverse Trade Inc. (dba Million Exchange) • 1380079 B.C. Limited (dba Amin Exchange) • Top PC Technician Inc. • NIA Nations Currency Ltd. • 2397639 Ontario Ltd. (dba Farah Exchange) • CCC Inc. • B Galaxy Inc. (dba Cryptoyal) • Darvish Exchange The 8 businesses exchange Iranian rials and other currencies for digital assets. OFAC records show that each of the eight companies holds a money services business registration number in Canada. They facilitated transactions with sanctioned Iranian digital asset exchanges and with addresses associated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Several of the targets worked with Ryan Wedding.

Wedding used MSBs in the Vancouver and Toronto areas to launder drug proceeds, with couriers moving bulk cash that was then converted to digital assets. According to TRM analysis, the Million Exchange address listed in the designation received USD 120.7 million and sent USD 121.8 million between January 2025 and February 2026. Monthly volume averaged about USD 8.3 million in 2025 and reached USD 19.4 million in January 2026.

Ryan Wedding's 'El General' Edgar Aarón Vazquez killed

Edgar Aarón Vazquez, identified as the leader and founder of the New Empire Cartel, was shot dead while Mexican federal officers were executing a warrant for his arrest. In 2025, the U.S. Treasury sanctioned Vazquez Alvarado, accusing him of protecting Ryan James Wedding. Vazquez Alvarado founded Cartel Nuevo Imperio with Oscar Antonio Garcia Alvarado. Vazquez Alvarado was involved in kidnapping, extortion, murder, land fraud, money laundering, fuel theft and drugs.

DB Services - RidgeView Place to be demolished

RidgeView Place, formerly known as Danbrook One, is now set to be torn down, according to the building's owners. Engineers and Geoscientists B.C., the regulatory body for the profession, has said the design didn't comply with B.C.'s building code and displayed "significant defects identified in the structural design." DB Services of Victoria Inc., the builder of the fraudjob 11-storey RidgeView Place (formerly Danbrook One) in Langford filed for bankruptcy. The trustee received 45 unsecured claims totalling about $12.3m. Under a best-case scenario, $126,019 would be available to unsecured creditors while any other senario returns zero.

Margaret McKay

147 unsecured creditors are stiffed for more than $51m says Margaret McKay. Investigation by Engineers and Geoscientists British Columbia found the structural engineer on the project, Brian McClure, was not qualified and negligent. Danbrook One did not meet the building code, and the structural design included many deficiencies. No independent reviews of the building’s design were done before construction. Theodore Sorensen and Brian McClure are no longer engineers.

Matthew McKay

Owners of the vacant Danbrook One apartment building in Langford are suing the seller, builder, engineer and City of Langford for damages they claim were caused by negligence. The new building was evacuated days before Christmas 2019 and deemed too dangerous for habitation. Centurion Apartment Properties bought the 90 unit building in August 2019. Sorensen Trilogy Engineering Brian McClure was the structural engineer on the project. Design Build Services (DB Services) designed and built the property. They say Centurion should have done more due diligence, the idiots.

Brian McClure

Long time Langford ex-Mayor Stew Young accepted no blame, naturally. Remediation is said to be a minimum of $1m with Centurion losing $200k per month in lost rents. 28 serious concerns were outlined by Read Jones Christoffersen Limited Consulting Engineers (RJC). The building is not evenly supported enough to distribute weight to the foundation.

This manner of grotesque issue ought never have happened. The remaining residents of Danbrook One were ordered out by the owner, Centurion Property Associates Inc. The letter states residents must “freely accept and fully assume all such risks, dangers and hazards and possibility of personal injury, death, property damage, expense and related loss, including loss of income or property.” There are multiple building code deficiencies, in addition to the lateral system load. The building, when being constructed, was listed for $37,970,000.

An engineer said in court that he believed the designs were copied from drawings his firm made for another building in Victoria.

Shores were installed on the second and third floors of Danbrook One. It appears the structure lacks multiple load bearing columns. The cost savings of NOT providing these columns would be large. A great deal of labor, concrete and steel reinforcement would not need to be paid for, with a direct increase to bottom line profitability. Temporary shores can only address concerns involving the gravity system. The lateral system load, if an earthquake shakes the structure, requires a far more extensive fix, one that shores alone cannot provide. A retrofit of that nature would be another never seen in this lifetime. This operation specializes in rental buildings, meaning quality in their shit construction doesn't need to exist.

Residents are being told to get out after the city received a report confirming major structural issues that represent a risk to tenants. On Dec. 3, the city received a notice from Engineering and Geoscientists BC about an investigation into violations of the building code by one of it's members.

Contractor was Victoria Construction. owen@victoria.construction. Owen Kelly.

Concerns were proven valid. The city revoked the building's occupancy permit. There are deficiencies in the building’s structural design and its as-built structure. The builder is DB Services, owned by Matthew McKay, partner with his mother Margaret McKay and with Gary Lahnsteiner. There are some dozen odd buildings built by DB Services around Langford and each needs an independent engineering report to determine the potential for danger. The city has already found issues in another DB Services rental property. Only through crime could the checks and balances in B.C.'s building trade be thwarted.

Maurice 'Mom' Boucher: HA crime boss

Born in Causapscal, Quebec, Maurice Boucher was raised in poverty in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough of inner-city Montreal. He dropped out of school in grade 9. In April 1973, at age 19, he committed his first crime. There would be no going back. In 1975, Boucher was described as an ambitious man who wanted to get rich without working. He was cold-blooded and regarded violence as normal. Around 1982, Boucher was a member of a white supremacist MC named the SS who were based in Pointe-aux-Trembles. A fellow member of the SS was Salvatore Cazzetta. They became prime candidates to join the Hells Angels when the club expanded into Canada. Another member was Normand 'Biff' Hamel who followed Boucher into the Hells Angels. He was Boucher's right hand right up until he was murdered in 2000.

In March 1985, the Sorel (Montreal South) chapter accused the Laval (Montreal North) chapter of being drug addicts and thieves. 5 Laval members were ambushed and murdered. Months later divers found their decomposing bodies wrapped in sleeping bags and tied to weights at the bottom of the St. Lawrence. It became known as the Lennoxville massacre. Cazzetta found the ambush an unforgivable breach of biker code, and instead of joining the Quebec Hells Angels, formed the Rock Machine. Yves 'Apache' Trudeau, the Angels' leading killer, turned rat and sent 39 HA and associates to prison. Réjean Lessard was convicted of first-degree murder for ordering the Lennoxville massacre.

On 1 May 1987, Boucher became a 'full patch' member of the Hells Angels, three days after he killed Martin Huneault, a leader of a rival gang, the Death Riders. The Death Riders became a Hells Angels puppet club, and the HA controlled all of the drug trade in Laval. Maurice Boucher quickly rose to upper management.

Boucher wasn't afraid to fight anyone. He was both feared and respected. Boucher had the nickname 'Mom' because of his exact attention to detail. By the early 1990s, he was one of the most powerful bikers in Quebec, and one of the richest as he was involved in many illegal enterprises. In 1992 Boucher founded the Rockers Motor Club, a Hells Angels' puppet club in Montreal that was responsible for most of the murders committed in the Quebec biker war. In 1994, following the arrest of Salvatore Cazzetta on cocaine charges, Boucher, then president of the Montreal chapter, moved against the Rock Machine and other independent drug dealers. By July 1994, the Quebec biker war was underway.

In 1995, Boucher founded the Hells Angels Nomads. With the exception of the Sherbrooke chapter, all Hells Angels chapters in Canada were required to buy their cocaine from the Nomads. Boucher's bodyguard was Haitian immigrant Gregory 'Picasso' Woolley, the best assassin working for the HA. Woolley was ultimately made the president of the Rockers by Boucher. He was the first black to head an OMG in Canada. Boucher ordered the murders of Quebec prison guards Diane Lavigne and Pierre Rondeau in 1997. Both had been chosen at random. Boucher was arrested and charged with two counts of first degree murder for the killings. He was acquited and became a celebrity in Quebec. Boucher turned on his former allies as his iron fisted control expanded to include all of Quebec.

In October 2000, a Montreal appeals judge declared that the trial of Boucher was marred by intimidation of the jury. Boucher would be retried for the murders of Lavigne and Rondeau. It was the beginning of the end.

On 28 March 2001, Boucher learned from his jail cell of Operation Springtime, which saw the arrest of 142 bikers including 80 of the 106 Hells Angels in Quebec. Boucher was found guilty of attempted murder and 2 counts of first-degree murder on 5 May 2002. He would never be a free man again.

Boucher's Nomads chapter was dealt a fatal blow in March 2001 when all of its members, except David Carroll, were nailed. Michel Rose (sentenced to 22 years), Donald 'Pup' Stockford (20 years), Gilles 'Trooper' Mathieu (20 years), Richard 'Dick' Mayrand (22 years), Denis Houle (20 years), David 'Wolf' Carroll (0). From left to right bottom: Walter 'Nurget' Stadnick (20 years), René Charlébois (20 years), Normand Robitaille (21 years), Maurice 'Mom' Boucher (life)

Boucher suffered what he considered the ultimate betrayal in 2014: he was expelled from the HAMC after a unanimous vote taken by all Hells Angels of Quebec. Boucher was expelled from the club for a simple reason: he was no longer useful to the group and never would be. A not insignificant cut of drug profits ended for Boucher and his family. Boucher never forgave his brothers for their betrayal. After refusing to be treated for his throat cancer, he was transferred from the Special Handling Unit to a palliative care one. Boucher died at age 69 on July 10, 2022 in a federal penitentiary in Ste-Anne-des-Plaines.

Suzan El-Khatib - HA Damiano Dipopolo's lawyer

Suzan El-Khatib

Suzan El-Khatib holds the distinction of being the only lawyer on earth to advance the defamation claim of a HAMC boss. It was Suzan El-Khatib who swore 1%er Damiano Dipopolos' affidavit for use in defamation litigation. Where is she now? At last report she was employed by well hated Vancouver Canucks owner Francesco Aquilini. She was called upon after Aquilini stiffed his ex-wife on child support. Those 4 now grown children ALL say he physically and psychologically abused them.

The descent of the Vancouver Canucks under Aquilini is complete. The Vancouver Canucks are by far the worst team in the NHL.

My character!!!!

Out bad HAMC thief Damiano Dipopolo: "Mr. Watson's allegations are incredibly defamatory to me and hurt my character." This manner of crying is reserved for old women, which figures because the lawyer behind the disgraced biker's lies is an old woman. The street name reserved for this manner of conduct is 'PUSSY.' and that is precisely what PoS Dipopolo always was.

"I am worried because of the threats."
