A man who was convicted in the notorious Surrey Six gangland murder case has died in prison while awaiting the outcome of an appeal that went to Canada’s highest court.
Matthew James Johnston, 38, died early Thursday of cancer at the North Fraser Pretrial Centre in Port Coquitlam, according to Brock Martland, a lawyer for Johnston.
“I’d actually gone with (co-counsel) Jonathan Desbarats to see him the day before,” Martland said in an interview Friday. “I knew about his cancer, which was a very serious kind of cancer he’d been coping with. But I didn’t have any idea he was at the last moments.”
Martland said he had known of Johnston’s cancer diagnosis for several months.
At the time of his death, Johnston was awaiting a ruling from the Supreme Court of Canada related to an appeal of his convictions.
In October 2014, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Catherine Wedge found Johnston and his co-accused, Cody Rae Haevischer, guilty of six counts of first-degree murder and one count of conspiracy to commit murder.

Johnston and Haevischer received the mandatory sentence of life in prison with no parole eligibility for 25 years.
The two men appealed their convictions and in an unusual ruling in January 2021, the B.C. Court of Appeal quashed the convictions, but also affirmed the verdicts of guilt.
The province’s highest court granted them a hearing in B.C. Supreme Court to call evidence of alleged police misconduct, allowing them a chance to get their charges thrown out. (Greg: For some reason some of the IHIT officers were having sex with some of the prosecution witnesses the defense would have to be in a coma not to bring that up. )
The Crown appealed that ruling and in October the case was argued in the Supreme Court of Canada, which has reserved judgment in the matter.
Martland said he had reached out to the Crown on how to proceed now that Johnston has died, but expects Canada’s highest court will proceed with their work.
“Given that Haevischer is alive and still dealing with his case, I would assume the Supreme Court of Canada simply goes ahead with the appeal and this won’t change anything they’re doing.”
In emails, the ministry of public safety and solicitor general and the B.C. Coroners Service confirmed the death of an individual on Dec. 15 at North Fraser.
“Any death in custody is a tragedy and our thoughts are with this individual’s family and friends at this time,” said the ministry email.
The coroners service investigation is expected to look at how, where, when and by what means the individual came to their unexpected death. Corrections officials will complete a review of the circumstances.
Following his conviction, Johnston had been serving time in a Quebec prison, but corrections authorities transferred him back to B.C. to be incarcerated in remand at a provincial pre-trial facility pending the outcome of his appeal.
The Red Scorpions gangsters had been convicted in the Oct. 19, 2007 executions of rival Corey Lal, his brother Michael Lal, associates Eddie Narong and Ryan Bartolomeo, and bystanders Christopher Mohan and Ed Schellenberg.
All of the victims were lying defenceless on the floor in a suite at the Balmoral Tower in Surrey when they were fatally shot. The plan was to murder Corey Lal and the motive of the gang was to demonstrate its strength, instil fear in its rivals and expand its drug business.

Glad the killer is dead will save taxpayers a pretty penny but the reason for the murder for which the killers only were given $70k was because the 4 gangsters murdered had offed a H.A. meth cook Dylan Becker popular with the lower ranks they bitched and moaned and complained so the club paid to have them offed. Mohan was just a basketball loving teenager who was in the hallway when it started to go down and Schellenberg was in the suite to repair the gas fireplace. Mohan's Mom has been quite vocal in her support for Surrey RCMP as has Darlene Bennett whose husband was murdered in an unsolved case.
The Red Scorpions did the Surrey 6 murder which included a gas fitter Mr. Schellenberg who was in the dealers apt. to do a repair and a young guy who just happened to be in the hallway. They were both shot in the head presumably execution style never go with your abductor you have the best chance at the initial encounter. The murder was done for the Hell's Angels because the 4 gangsters killed a H.A. meth cook Dylan Becker who was popular among the extended HAMC nation.
https://www.pressreader.com/canada/vancouver-sun/20080123/281535106670057 the media in 2008 said Becker worked for a biker gang. Can you think of any biker gang 1% in the Lower Mainland in 2008 other than the Big Red Machine?
https://vancouversunandprovince.remembering.ca/obituary/dylan-becker-1065814357 this obituary lauds the generosity of meth maker Dylan Becker and how he brightened the lives of ppl living a bleak life in Surrey that he was a soldier. His generosity came from money making meth to sell to addicts for the Hell's Angels. The bleak lives of many are caused by drug addiction and the crimes committed by them. At least this soldiers death was avenged after some prompting.
Have the dead Kline brothers received justice? Both were murdered in separate incidents but only the second killing gets any publicity one of his buddies put a large poster on top of a pole in Surrey demanding justice.

The memorial to the Schellenberg killing at King George Park
apartments has been removed. Someone had tagged, "Would You Remove
Your Son's Memorial?" on a for sale sign. 4 members of the Red Scorpions gang
died in revenge for the much talked about killing of Dylan Becker a
meth dealer who worked for a biker gang most likely HAMC. Ed
Schellenberg and Chris Mohan died also apparently at the wrong place
at the wrong time. Coincidentally the last name of MoHAn and
Schellenberg is also the last name of Walter Schellenberg a man who
died on a HA run.

Murder victim's mom holds memorial mass
Surrey Now
Tuesday, May 20, 2008
The mother of murder victim Chris Mohan is holding a memorial birthday
mass for her son on what would have been his 23rd birthday.
The mass will be held May 31st, at 3:15 p.m., at Valley View Memorial
Gardens, at 14644 72nd Avenue. It'll be followed by a rally against
gang violence.
Mohan, one of six men murdered in a Whalley highrise last October, was
an innocent victim who unwittingly stumbled into a gangland slaying at
the suite next door.
Police have yet to arrest a suspect in connection with the multiple
homicide in apartment 1505, on the top floor of the Balmoral Tower at
9830 East Whalley Ring Road.
"With no arrests at the moment, my only option is to pray," said
Chris's mom, Eileen. "This is the only way to honour Chris's birthday
in the hope that God will grant his blessings for us to endure the
pain and grief of losing my loving and wonderful son.

Mrs.Mohan has in the past called for a website listing every gangster
In Canada and I hope that becomes a reality.
Brian William Paskalidis was killed by HAMC and
the restaurant of his family burned to the ground subsequently. The
Burnaby RCMP blew the case or were bribed to blow it and the killer
was set free.
"The war is on" was the cry before Earl Stephen Seymour was
murdered. "Die HA" is sometimes heard along with "Anybody but HA". The
local media report more about them than ever but at times still are
terrified of them. East Coast media reported that Mr.Seymour was an HA
drug dealer at one time selling tens of thousands of dollars of crack
a month for them but the local media didn't report that HA angle. If
it isn't fear keeping the media in check then it is being bribed off
or they fear having their drug and prostitute activities exposed.
HA
is involved with
extortion, homicide, kidnapping, prostitution, meth and cocaine
dealing, rape, armed robbery and motorcycle theft and child
pornography
as well as phony currency and witness intimidation and obstruction of
justice. They have been known to bribe and scare law enforcement
officers and judges into doing their bidding. These ppl must be
rooted
out of the Cdn justice system. Three judges have actually done their
job
and declared HAMC a criminal org and the Victoria Times-Colonist is
calling for it to be banned as a terrorist org.
"The Hells Angels should be treated as a domestic terror organization.
We should encourage those who make and enforce our laws in their
efforts to eradicate them."

I posted that paragraph circa 2008 now in 2022 the govt banned the Proud Boys who while evil and criminal never killed anyone or raped anyone and not H.A.M.C. or La Cosa Nostra aka The Mob aka the Mafia you know the guys so violent and organized crime they have congressional committees and movies about them and A and E shows.
Meanwhile the Vancouver Sun on Page 5 today lists the death of Earl
Seymour in the DTES last month as gang-style. Interesting because at
the time of his death they listed it as a love triangle. Because of
the rising HA body count and perhaps worried their press room or
printing presses will get blown up they neglected to mention he was a
well known HA associate.

N.S.-born drug baron shot dead in Vancouver
http://thechronicleherald.ca/Front/1038729.html
(Comments In Brackets My Own)
By CHRIS LAMBIE Staff Reporter
The Nova Scotia native who was once the kingpin of a Vancouver crack
cocaine ring has been murdered.
Earl Stephen Seymour was shot dead in his minivan Friday night in
downtown Vancouver. The 40-year-old known Hells Angels associate had
been living in the city for several years, but before that he resided
in Bible Hill. He was originally from Glace Bay.
Mr. Seymour had an extensive criminal history that included ordering
the firebombing of the home of a Cape Breton police officer’s
grandmother.
Investigators believe Mr. Seymour’s murder was a targeted shooting.
"A woman was holding the body and crying and screaming, ‘No, this
can’t be happening,’ " photographer Lilith Yakub, who arrived at the
scene minutes after the shooting, told the Vancouver Sun.
For five years starting in the late 1990s, Mr. Seymour ran a gang that
sold crack on Vancouver’s east side. The operation intimidated rivals
with gunfire and beatings. It made $10,000 to $20,000 a day.
Drugs were also bused to dealers in Cape Breton.
In September 2001, Mr. Seymour pleaded guilty to cocaine trafficking
and possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking.
A B.C. judge imposed a sentence of six years and four months for
cocaine trafficking. The judge also handed Mr. Seymour a concurrent
one-year term for the marijuana charge.
His gang’s main source of income was about $300,000 a month from crack
cocaine.
"This drug trafficking operation was like a business, with Mr. Seymour
being one of the principal movers behind the operation," the
prosecutor told the court.
The judge also sentenced Mr. Seymour, then 34, to a concurrent
three-year term for firebombing the home of the 90-year-old
grandmother of a Cape Breton Regional Police officer on May 21, 2000.
According to a statement of facts filed in the case, Mr. Seymour was
angry after police raided his Nova Scotia home on May 18, 2000, with
guns drawn. The officers forced some of his family members to lie on
the floor.
In retaliation, Mr. Seymour directed two men to lob two Molotov
cocktails through the window of the Glace Bay home of Audrey and
Norris Dowe. One of the bottles ignited and Mr. Dowe burned his feet
trying to put out the fire. Mrs. Dowe — the grandmother of Const.
Kevin Dowe, an undercover drug officer who was involved in the search
of the Seymour residence — was sleeping in the next room, which also
contained an oxygen tank.
As part of a plea agreement, Mr. Seymour agreed to forfeit to the
Crown $740,000 worth of assets purchased with the proceeds of crime,
including the family home at 88 Hidden Valley Dr. in Colchester
County, two 1999 Harley-Davidson motorcycles, a 1999 Corvette, a 1997
all-terrain vehicle, two new snowmobiles, a new travel trailer and
$269,875 in Canadian cash seized by police.
At his trial, Mr. Seymour’s lawyer, Glen Orris, reportedly told the
court his client was one of 11 children who grew up in a Nova Scotia
home where the father abandoned them when Mr. Seymour was five.
His mother drank heavily, forcing the older sisters to raise the
younger siblings, the lawyer added.
Mr. Seymour dropped out of school at 15, worked odd jobs, began
drinking, then took to selling drugs to supplement his income.
The defence lawyer added that Mr. Seymour, who, when he was sentenced,
had four children under the age of six with his common-law wife, felt
shame for causing his family a similar fate as his own fatherless
childhood. He planned to get an honest job when he got out of prison,
Mr. Orris said at the sentencing hearing.
The Vancouver crack cocaine operation was run by Mr. Seymour, his
brother Cliff Seymour and two cousins, Ken and Don Seymour. All of the
men came from Nova Scotia.
On Dec. 30, 2005, a gunman shot two of Mr. Seymour’s cousins in a
rundown Glace Bay neighbourhood known as the Hub.
Kenneth Bradley Seymour, 39, died hours later in hospital.
His brother, Donald Wilfred Seymour, 38, was seriously injured; his
liver and other organs were damaged.
They had both done six years behind bars for being part of the West
Coast cocaine operation.
They were shot over a drug debt by a fellow associate of the Hells
Angels.
Nelson MacPhee of Dominion pleaded guilty to manslaughter and
aggravated assault. Last April, a judge sentenced him to 15 years in
prison.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Police discovered the crack ring while investigating the beating death
of Michael Bath, 29, whose body was found in 1999 near Squamish.
Kenneth and Donald Seymour were charged with Bath's first-degree
murder in April 2000, but the charges were stayed.
Earl Seymour was shot Friday around 6:30 p.m. not far from Victory
Square, where his family allegedly dealt cocaine.
n(sic) A 25-year-old man was shot in the leg in the 6300-block Crown
Street Saturday night.
The shooting took place outside a mixed martial-arts event at the
Musqueam Gymnasium, where the victim was a competitor.
A Vancouver police spokesman said the man was fired on by a group of
men who appeared not to have any association with the event.
They fled in a vehicle and remain at large.

gets even more bizarre:
Glace Bay man to enter pleas next month ?
Cousin killed in targeted hit in Vancouver, Friday
STEVE MACINNIS
The Cape Breton Post
SYDNEY — A 39-year-old Glace Bay man, whose cousin was murdered on the
weekend in Vancouver in a targeted hit, is scheduled back in
provincial court March 3 to enter pleas on drug and tobacco charges.
Donald Wilfred Seymour of East Street, is charged with possession of
cocaine for the purpose of trafficking; possession of marijuana;
possession of illegally manufactured cigarettes and possession of
cigarettes without the proper excise markings.
Seymour continues to use a cane to assist with his mobility after he
was shot in 2005 inside his home. His brother, Kenneth, died in the
same shooting incident. Another man, Nelson MacPhee, was given a
17-year-sentence for the murder.
Last Friday, Seymour’s cousin, Earl Stephen Seymour, was gunned down
in Vancouver in what police described as a target killing. Stephen
Seymour had been convicted in 2000 for his role in the fire bombing of
a home belonging to the 90-year-old grandmother of a Cape Breton
Regional Police officer.
The shooting of Earl Stephen Seymour occurred in an area of Vancouver
not far from where he and his gang once ran a highly profitable crack
cocaine trafficking ring.
Stephen Seymour received a sentence of six years in 2001 after
pleading guilty to trafficking in cocaine and possession of marijuana
for the purpose of trafficking.
He also forfeited some $740,000 worth of assets deemed by police to
have been purchased with the profits of his illegal activity.
Donald Seymour remains free on conditions after posting a $3,500
surety and agreeing to a host of conditions including he not associate
with anyone with a criminal record and that he abide by a curfew.

Man charged in shooting death
Gerry Bellett, Vancouver Sun
Published: Tuesday, February 19, 2008
VANCOUVER - Matthew Ryan Wall, 24, has been charged with the
first-degree murder of drug dealer Earl Stephen Seymour, 40, who was
gunned down as he sat in his minivan last Friday evening in the 300
block of Carrall Street in downtown Vancouver.
Vancouver police detectives said they arrested Wall in a downtown
rooming house hours after the shooting.
Police said Wall was known to them as a street-level drug dealer. His
shooting was Vancouver's sixth homicide of the year.
https://groups.google.com/g/ns.general/c/vTVtHbo4dko Mr. Wall was sentenced to 14 years in prison. Probably out on the street now.
http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/westcoastnews/story.html?id=a...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Various news orgs have stated the Seymour’s were HA associates and
there is a gang war going on. So why is no local news outlet
mentioning that? Are they that afraid of HAMC that they can’t cover a
routine hit in a gang war? One local TV station speculated it was a
love triangle gone bad but didn’t mention the extensive criminal
history of the victim or his documented ties to HAMC. The media in
Vancouver should do a better job of crime coverage especially during a
gang war.

A man who was convicted in the notorious Surrey Six gangland murder case has died in prison while awaiting the outcome of an appeal that went to Canada’s highest court.

drug dealer at one time selling tens of thousands of dollars of crack
a month for them but the local media didn't report that HA angle. If
it isn't fear keeping the media in check then it is being bribed off
or they fear having their drug and prostitute activities exposed.
HA
is involved with
extortion, homicide, kidnapping, prostitution, meth and cocaine
dealing, rape, armed robbery and motorcycle theft and child
pornography
as well as phony currency and witness intimidation and obstruction of
justice. They have been known to bribe and scare law enforcement
officers and judges into doing their bidding. These ppl must be
rooted
out of the Cdn justice system. Three judges have actually done their
job
and declared HAMC a criminal org and the Victoria Times-Colonist is
calling for it to be banned as a terrorist org.
"The Hells Angels should be treated as a domestic terror organization.
We should encourage those who make and enforce our laws in their
efforts to eradicate them."

I posted that paragraph circa 2008 now in 2022 the govt banned the Proud Boys who while evil and criminal never killed anyone or raped anyone and not H.A.M.C. or La Cosa Nostra aka The Mob aka the Mafia you know the guys so violent and organized crime they have congressional committees and movies about them and A and E shows.
Meanwhile the Vancouver Sun on Page 5 today lists the death of Earl
Seymour in the DTES last month as gang-style. Interesting because at
the time of his death they listed it as a love triangle. Because of
the rising HA body count and perhaps worried their press room or
printing presses will get blown up they neglected to mention he was a
well known HA associate.

N.S.-born drug baron shot dead in Vancouver

(Comments In Brackets My Own)
By CHRIS LAMBIE Staff Reporter
The Nova Scotia native who was once the kingpin of a Vancouver crack
cocaine ring has been murdered.
Earl Stephen Seymour was shot dead in his minivan Friday night in
downtown Vancouver. The 40-year-old known Hells Angels associate had
been living in the city for several years, but before that he resided
in Bible Hill. He was originally from Glace Bay.
Mr. Seymour had an extensive criminal history that included ordering
the firebombing of the home of a Cape Breton police officer’s
grandmother.
Investigators believe Mr. Seymour’s murder was a targeted shooting.
"A woman was holding the body and crying and screaming, ‘No, this
can’t be happening,’ " photographer Lilith Yakub, who arrived at the
scene minutes after the shooting, told the Vancouver Sun.
For five years starting in the late 1990s, Mr. Seymour ran a gang that
sold crack on Vancouver’s east side. The operation intimidated rivals
with gunfire and beatings. It made $10,000 to $20,000 a day.
Drugs were also bused to dealers in Cape Breton.
In September 2001, Mr. Seymour pleaded guilty to cocaine trafficking
and possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking.
A B.C. judge imposed a sentence of six years and four months for
cocaine trafficking. The judge also handed Mr. Seymour a concurrent
one-year term for the marijuana charge.
His gang’s main source of income was about $300,000 a month from crack
cocaine.
"This drug trafficking operation was like a business, with Mr. Seymour
being one of the principal movers behind the operation," the
prosecutor told the court.
The judge also sentenced Mr. Seymour, then 34, to a concurrent
three-year term for firebombing the home of the 90-year-old
grandmother of a Cape Breton Regional Police officer on May 21, 2000.
According to a statement of facts filed in the case, Mr. Seymour was
angry after police raided his Nova Scotia home on May 18, 2000, with
guns drawn. The officers forced some of his family members to lie on
the floor.
In retaliation, Mr. Seymour directed two men to lob two Molotov
cocktails through the window of the Glace Bay home of Audrey and
Norris Dowe. One of the bottles ignited and Mr. Dowe burned his feet
trying to put out the fire. Mrs. Dowe — the grandmother of Const.
Kevin Dowe, an undercover drug officer who was involved in the search
of the Seymour residence — was sleeping in the next room, which also
contained an oxygen tank.
As part of a plea agreement, Mr. Seymour agreed to forfeit to the
Crown $740,000 worth of assets purchased with the proceeds of crime,
including the family home at 88 Hidden Valley Dr. in Colchester
County, two 1999 Harley-Davidson motorcycles, a 1999 Corvette, a 1997
all-terrain vehicle, two new snowmobiles, a new travel trailer and
$269,875 in Canadian cash seized by police.
At his trial, Mr. Seymour’s lawyer, Glen Orris, reportedly told the
court his client was one of 11 children who grew up in a Nova Scotia
home where the father abandoned them when Mr. Seymour was five.
His mother drank heavily, forcing the older sisters to raise the
younger siblings, the lawyer added.
Mr. Seymour dropped out of school at 15, worked odd jobs, began
drinking, then took to selling drugs to supplement his income.
The defence lawyer added that Mr. Seymour, who, when he was sentenced,
had four children under the age of six with his common-law wife, felt
shame for causing his family a similar fate as his own fatherless
childhood. He planned to get an honest job when he got out of prison,
Mr. Orris said at the sentencing hearing.
The Vancouver crack cocaine operation was run by Mr. Seymour, his
brother Cliff Seymour and two cousins, Ken and Don Seymour. All of the
men came from Nova Scotia.
On Dec. 30, 2005, a gunman shot two of Mr. Seymour’s cousins in a
rundown Glace Bay neighbourhood known as the Hub.
Kenneth Bradley Seymour, 39, died hours later in hospital.
His brother, Donald Wilfred Seymour, 38, was seriously injured; his
liver and other organs were damaged.
They had both done six years behind bars for being part of the West
Coast cocaine operation.
They were shot over a drug debt by a fellow associate of the Hells
Angels.
Nelson MacPhee of Dominion pleaded guilty to manslaughter and
aggravated assault. Last April, a judge sentenced him to 15 years in
prison.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Police discovered the crack ring while investigating the beating death
of Michael Bath, 29, whose body was found in 1999 near Squamish.
Kenneth and Donald Seymour were charged with Bath's first-degree
murder in April 2000, but the charges were stayed.
Earl Seymour was shot Friday around 6:30 p.m. not far from Victory
Square, where his family allegedly dealt cocaine.
n(sic) A 25-year-old man was shot in the leg in the 6300-block Crown
Street Saturday night.
The shooting took place outside a mixed martial-arts event at the
Musqueam Gymnasium, where the victim was a competitor.
A Vancouver police spokesman said the man was fired on by a group of
men who appeared not to have any association with the event.
They fled in a vehicle and remain at large.

http://www.reality-check.ca/archive/index.php/t-110225.html shows the
Seymour brothers to be HA associates. Rather violent company. This
gets even more bizarre:
Glace Bay man to enter pleas next month ?
Cousin killed in targeted hit in Vancouver, Friday
STEVE MACINNIS
The Cape Breton Post
SYDNEY — A 39-year-old Glace Bay man, whose cousin was murdered on the
weekend in Vancouver in a targeted hit, is scheduled back in
provincial court March 3 to enter pleas on drug and tobacco charges.
Donald Wilfred Seymour of East Street, is charged with possession of
cocaine for the purpose of trafficking; possession of marijuana;
possession of illegally manufactured cigarettes and possession of
cigarettes without the proper excise markings.
Seymour continues to use a cane to assist with his mobility after he
was shot in 2005 inside his home. His brother, Kenneth, died in the
same shooting incident. Another man, Nelson MacPhee, was given a
17-year-sentence for the murder.
Last Friday, Seymour’s cousin, Earl Stephen Seymour, was gunned down
in Vancouver in what police described as a target killing. Stephen
Seymour had been convicted in 2000 for his role in the fire bombing of
a home belonging to the 90-year-old grandmother of a Cape Breton
Regional Police officer.
The shooting of Earl Stephen Seymour occurred in an area of Vancouver
not far from where he and his gang once ran a highly profitable crack
cocaine trafficking ring.
Stephen Seymour received a sentence of six years in 2001 after
pleading guilty to trafficking in cocaine and possession of marijuana
for the purpose of trafficking.
He also forfeited some $740,000 worth of assets deemed by police to
have been purchased with the profits of his illegal activity.
Donald Seymour remains free on conditions after posting a $3,500
surety and agreeing to a host of conditions including he not associate
with anyone with a criminal record and that he abide by a curfew.

All the Seymours and McPhee are HA.
Man charged in shooting death
Gerry Bellett, Vancouver Sun
Published: Tuesday, February 19, 2008
VANCOUVER - Matthew Ryan Wall, 24, has been charged with the
first-degree murder of drug dealer Earl Stephen Seymour, 40, who was
gunned down as he sat in his minivan last Friday evening in the 300
block of Carrall Street in downtown Vancouver.
Vancouver police detectives said they arrested Wall in a downtown
rooming house hours after the shooting.
Police said Wall was known to them as a street-level drug dealer. His
shooting was Vancouver's sixth homicide of the year.
https://groups.google.com/g/ns.general/c/vTVtHbo4dko Mr. Wall was sentenced to 14 years in prison. Probably out on the street now.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Various news orgs have stated the Seymour’s were HA associates and
there is a gang war going on. So why is no local news outlet
mentioning that? Are they that afraid of HAMC that they can’t cover a
routine hit in a gang war? One local TV station speculated it was a
love triangle gone bad but didn’t mention the extensive criminal
history of the victim or his documented ties to HAMC. The media in
Vancouver should do a better job of crime coverage especially during a
gang war.
