Police displaying confiscated Bandidos MC Club property
During a lengthy racketeering trial earlier this year in San
Antonio, Ojemann testified that he and other club members carried out
orders from former Bandidos President Jeffrey Fay Pike and his
second-in-command, John Xavier Portillo. Those orders, according to Ojemann,
included violent assaults and intimidation of rivals and fellow Bandidos.
Ojemann testified in April that Pike tasked him and another
national member with finding and beating the Costa Rica chapter leader for not
supporting his bid to cast off the Europe and Australia groups. The attack
never happened because John “Galveston John” Lammins, president of a chapter in
Costa Rica, was tipped off and was a no-show, he testified.
During Ojemann’s five years as a Bandidos club member, from
2008 until 2013, he rose to the rank of national sergeant-at-arms. He testified
that Pike eventually gave him the boot but allowed him to remain in “good
standing.”
A majority of the documents detailing Ojemann’s sentencing
were sealed last week. Court records filed Monday show federal Judge Vanessa D.
Gilmore signed off on dismissing two more counts of drug possession and a
single count of firearm possession for a drug trafficking crime against Ojemann.
It was then recommended that Ojemann be incarcerated at the Bastrop prison or
another federal facility close to Houston.
As part of his punishment, Ojemann is required to undergo a
mental health treatment program.
