Hells Angel drug dealer gets 4½ years

Hells Angel drug dealer gets 4½ years: "former president of the Niagara chapter of the Hells Angels was sentenced on Tuesday to 4 ½ years in prison for trafficking in cocaine and possessing the proceeds of crime.
Andre Watteel, 58, of Cambridge, pleaded guilty in September to selling just under one kilogram of high-grade cocaine to an agent of the police during 28 separate transactions between March 3 and Sept. 28, 2009.
The convicted biker was ordered to return the $60,000 that police provided to the undercover agent to buy the cocaine. Watteel also forfeited a PT Cruiser automobile he had driven during some of the coke deals.
Defence lawyer Jaime Stephenson negotiated with federal drug prosecutor Bradley Reitz for the return of her client’s 2003 Harley Davison motorcycle and a 2000 Ford pickup that were seized when Watteel was arrested Dec. 15, 2009"
