Seven men from BC with connections to the Hells Angels, were sentenced, today, in a Washington State courtroom for their involvment in a massive cross-border drug smuggling ring.
The men received sentences varying in length from probation and community service all the way up to 59 months behind bars.
The master mind of the operation, Rob Shannon, was handed a 20-year sentence, in March of 2009.
Shannon and co-conspirator Devron Quast were arrested back in 2008 after a three year joint RCMP--DEA investigation.
The scheme involved BC bud heading south stashed in pvp pipe, hollowed out logs, and hidden compartments of tractor trailers, in exchange for high grade cocaine crossing into Canada.
In all, 54 people have been charged, 28 of them Canadian.
