#303 Mel Chancey - Youngest President in Hells Angels History
"That unwritten rule was like we saved it for the street. They beat up one of our guys' girlfriends that was a bartender. They walked into a bar and busted her nose. We didn't want to do it. The last thing I wanted to do was go sock up some girl but you brought us there and I was the one that wanted to do it and I was the one who did it. I did it to one of their girls."
Chancey admitted to personally carrying out a retaliation attack on an Outlaws member's girlfriend at a strip club after the rival gang assaulted a Hells Angels associate who worked as a bartender. He described the unwritten rule against targeting families being violated by both sides as the six-year war escalated beyond street confrontations into bombings and targeted killings. The confession illustrates how the conflict descended into attacks on civilians despite initial boundaries.
