Hells Angels Biker Sentenced For Disposing Body Of Another Gang Member From Sonoma County
The former president of the Fresno chapter of the Hells Angels biker gang has been sentenced for disposing of the body of a murdered biker from Sonoma County, Joel Silva. Merl Hefferman was sentenced to four years in federal prison on Thursday. Prosecutors say he cremated the man’s body at a funeral home in Fresno to conceal the murder in 2014. Prosecutors argued that Hefferman also disposed of the bodies of three other Hells Angels members. But, he has never been charged in connection with their disappearances.
