Ex-Mountie admits trafficking guns for Hells Angels

Ex-Mountie admits trafficking guns for Hells Angels: "former Manitoba RCMP officer has admitted trafficking weapons on behalf of the Hells Angels, claiming he was desperate for money to pay for his young son's birthday party.
After pleading guilty, Wayne Shuttleworth, 40, was sentenced Friday to the mandatory minimum sentence of three years in prison under a joint-recommendation from Crown and defence lawyers. He was also given an additional year behind bars on the charge of participating in a criminal organization.
Shuttleworth was one of 31 people arrested last December through Project DIVIDE, a yearlong undercover sting operation in which police used a trusted gang associate to act as a secret agent. Michael Satsatin captured dozens of illicit deals on audio and video surveillance, including a series of November 2009 meetings with Shuttleworth."
