The Department of Justice said that Jonathan Nelson, aka "Jon Jon," 46, of Santa Rosa, Russell Taylor Ott, aka "Rusty," 69, also of Santa Rosa, and Brian Wayne Wendt, 45, of Tulare, killed one of their own members and planned to kill someone else.
The Sonoma County Hells Angels club was started in 1972. Some of the money the club makes comes from selling shirts, hats, sweatshirts, and other items with the club's logo on them. They have also helped raise money for toy drives for kids.
The DOJ, the Santa Rosa Police Department, and the California Highway Patrol all looked into the Sonoma club over the course of eight years.
