Man Sentenced for Torching Outlaws MC's Clubhouse

Saginaw, Michigan (April 29, 2026) - A Saginaw County District Judge on Monday, April 27, sentenced Adrian A. Roseberry to nine months probation. While on probation, Roseberry is to continue attending therapy and must provide his agent with monthly proof of attendance. He is not to use alcohol or illicit drugs and must submit to regular testing. 

The judge further ordered Roseberry to pay $525 in fines and costs within 120 days, plus a $30 monthly supervision fee. He gave Roseberry credit for 12 days served in jail.

 

1903 Durand Street, Saginaw, Michigan

The sentence in part resulted from Roseberry having “an almost nonexistent prior record,” the Judge said. “Hopefully, you can stick by these terms and abide by them as you’re supposed to,” the judge told Roseberry. “If you don’t, the alternative is 353 days in the Saginaw County Jail, obviously, a substantial amount of time.” No victims were present in the courtroom to give impact statements. 

Roseberry in January pleaded no contest to one count of malicious destruction of a building between $200 and $1,000. The charge is a one-year misdemeanor. 

David Allan Coe Sings Panheads Forever

Panheads Forever by David Allan Coe

She's hard to get started, she's always so cold
In the mornings, I find her, she's looking so old
There's so many miles, I've been down that road once or twice
Yes, she's not much to look at when we ride through town
But I know when the chips fall, she won't let me down
She knows how to run, and she don't run around on her man
She's a high-flying lady, she takes me where I wanna be
There's no other woman standing between her and me
And I'll always be faithful, and keep her 'til the end of time
God knows, I'll always love that old panhead of mine
I've seen fancy dressers, and they've caught my eye
I rode 'em to ride 'em, then I told them goodbye
I flirted with low riders, sportsters, and shovelheads too
And I cussed her and beat her, and kicked her
To just get her started a couple of times
And you might think, I'm crazy, but I love that Panhead of mine
She's a high-flying lady, she takes me where I wanna be
There's no other woman standing between her and me
And I'll always be faithful, and keep her 'til the end of time
And God knows, I'll always love that old panhead of mine
God knows, I'll always love
I don't know, in case you like George Dickel a little bit
Hm, anyway, maybe you remember this song
Uh, today they just re-released the movie that we did over 20 years ago
And this song was the title of the movie
So yeah, you're about to be seeing it on TV or somewhere soon, anyway
I wrote this song in the 1970s, and a friend of mine who's dying very quickly
In the hospital and I don't know how much longer he's gonna live
I wanna thank him personally for singing this song and making it a big hit
His name is Johnny Paycheck, John Austin Paychec

Outlaws MC member pleads guilty to federal charge of arson

Pensacola, Florida, USA (March 17, 2026) - Gregory E. Simonds Jr., of Pensacola, pleaded guilty in federal court to the charge of arson by means of an explosive causing personal injury. John P. Heekin, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Florida, announced the charge. 

Court documents reflect that on February 15, 2025, during an altercation with a group of individuals associated with the Pagans Motorcycle Club in the parking lot of Emerald Coast Harley Davidson on Beal Parkway in Fort Walton Beach, the defendant set off an explosive that damaged the adjacent Jimmy John’s restaurant building and injured one of its employees. 

Although the defendant drove away from the scene, he was quickly identified and arrested by law enforcement. In his car, officers recovered four more explosive devices, two guns, narcotics and drug paraphernalia, and an Outlaws Motorcycle Club vest that the defendant had been identified wearing during the incident. 

During a subsequent search of his residence, federal agents seized additional explosive devices, explosive making material and equipment, and other evidence that the defendant was making and selling explosives. Simonds faces a mandatory minimum term of 7 years’ imprisonment, and up to a maximum term of 40 years’ imprisonment. 

The case was the result of a joint investigation by the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, with assistance from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Alicia H. Forbes. 

Simonds’s sentencing is scheduled for June 30, 2026, at 9:00 am at the United States District Courthouse in Pensacola before United States District Judge M. Casey Rodgers.

Outlaws Motorcycle Club Member Sentenced

Naples, Maine​, USA (April 10, 2025) - A judge in a Cumberland County court sentenced a Portland tattoo shop owner to 15 years, with all but 5 suspended, for last summer's fatal shooting of Susan McHugh. Aaron Karp will spend 5 years in state prison with 4 years probation after agreeing to plead guilty to a lesser manslaughter charge.

Karp originally faced an intentional or knowing murder charge. According to the judge's decision Thursday morning, if Karp misbehaves, breaks a no contact order or violates his probation he will serve the full 15 years.

 

Last July, 48-year-old Karp shot and killed 54-year-old McHugh during what police and prosecutors say was a brawl and shootout involving rival motorcycle clubs. The violence broke out near Morrill's Corner in Portland at 1155 Forest Ave., across the street from Almost Famous Tattoos & Piercings, which Karp owns. His defense had argued in previous hearings that Karp was firing in self defense.

Eighteen gunshots can be heard in surveillance video near the shooting, and people can be seen scurrying for cover. Three others were shot and injured that day. Karp, who turned himself in to police on August 2, is one of seven defendants connected to this case.



The other six defendants — Caleb Pelkey, Kaleb Cidre, James Moody, Nathan Walsh, Kristofer Haken and Jason Kennan — face elevated aggravated assault charges and will all be tried together. A judge agreed to a joinder request in March after attorneys argued that holding six separate trials over many months would lead to "lots of logistical issues."

Biker caught on video in highway drive-by shooting

Tampa, Florida, USA (April 8, 2025) - Troopers are searching for a motorcyclist who fired several shots at a vehicle on westbound I-4 early Sunday morning. According to the Florida Highway Patrol, a 34-year-old St. Petersburg man was traveling on I-4 in Tampa around 2:28 a.m. when he spotted several motorcyclists driving erratically with another vehicle west on I-275.

 

When the man began filming the motorcyclists with his phone, one of the motorcyclists rode up next to his car and discharged several rounds from a handgun, troopers said. While several rounds struck the man’s Honda CR-V, he was not injured.



The suspected shooter is described as a white man with a medium build. He was wearing a jacket with the “Outlaws MC” logo, referring to the Outlaws Motorcycle Club.

Outlaws MC club member pleads guilty

Buffalo, New York, USA (January 2, 2025) - An Outlaws MC club member who pleaded guilty to a gun charge has already been in jail for a portion of what federal guidelines suggest for a sentence. Scott Barnes, whom prosecutors have described as a national enforcer for the Outlaws, has been in jail since December 2023.

Federal agents on December 7, 2023, executed a search warrant at the 400 block of Northumberland Avenue, Buffalo, New York. Scott had been living in the upper portion of the building for several weeks before law enforcement searched it.

 

During the search, agents recovered a .40 caliber Glock handgun loaded with 11 rounds of ammunition on an end table near his sleeping area with other personal items. The firearm was reported stolen in 2013 by its owner.

Scott was among nine defendants named in the Pharaoh’s witness retaliation indictment. But his charges of being a felon in possession of a firearm and also possessing a stolen Glock .40-caliber pistol were not related to the alleged retaliation against Crystal Quinn, 37, a former exotic dancer who died of a fentanyl overdose in 2023.

Among the other defendants in the retaliation case are four people accused of participating in a witness-tampering and retaliation conspiracy targeting Quinn. At the time of her death, Quinn had entered into a formal cooperation agreement with federal prosecutors to testify in Gerace’s bribery, sex- and drug-trafficking trial.

Outlaws MC member charged in deadly shooting

Portland, Maine, USA (August 14, 2024) - Police have charged a Outlaws Motorcycle Club member with murder in connection with a shooting on Forest Avenue that left a Gray woman dead. Police said Aaron Karp, of Naples, turned himself in at the Portland Police station Thursday evening, and he is currently being held without bail.

 

Police have not released any details about the connection between Karp and the victims. A court file for Karp was not available Friday. A background check run through the Maine Bureau of Identification shows he has no criminal history in the state.

On his Facebook page, Karp describes himself as a tattoo artist at Almost Famous Tattoos & Piercings, which is next to the shooting scene, and has several pictures showing he is a member of the Outlaws motorcycle club.

Karp is charged in the murder of Susan McHugh, 54, of Gray, at about 8:45 p.m. on July 30. She was shot at the 1110 block of Forest Avenue along with a 45-year-old New Hampshire man, a 48-year-old Yarmouth man and a 51-year-old Gray man.



All three other victims have since been treated for their injuries and released from a local hospital. Police have not made any other arrests yet, but said the investigation continues. “This is just the beginning, as we will continue to work with the Office of the Maine Attorney General to build our case as we look for justice for Ms. McHugh,” Dubois said.

Outlaws MC welcomed in Vermont city for gathering

Rutland, Vermont, USA (July 14, 2024) - Rutland, a small city in Vermont with less than 20,000 people is preparing for a visit from the Outlaws Motorcycle Club. City officials say the Outlaws MC is holding its national meet at the Vermont state fair grounds starting Thursday.

 

While the local news is pushing that the Outlaws MC is on multiple Federal watchlists with ties to organized crime, Rutland’s mayor doesn’t believe any issues will come up during the group’s time in the Marble City, he says it’s better to be prepared.



“Any motorcycle club coming to Rutland to celebrate, to do something at the fair grounds, I think that’s awesome,” Rutland mayor Mike Doenges said. “I think its great that people want to participate. You look at things like Daytona Bike Week or Laconia and those are great economic drivers for those communities."

"Those communities are prepared for those things though, this is the first time we’ve had something like this in Rutland of this size.” Mayor Doenges says the city is looking at additional law enforcement staffing from July 18th to the 20th.

Pagan's MC members arrested after bar fight

Key West, Florida, USA (March 5, 2024) - Four Florida Keys men were arrested March 2 after a fight on Big Pine Key that started over a T-shirt, according to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office. The scuffle happened at the Boardwalk Bar and Grill on Big Pine. Three of the men arrested belong to the Pagan’s Motorcycle Club, the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

 

Arrested was Derek Queen of Key West, Anthony Eliopulos of Ramrod Key and David Mirth of Big Pine. The arrests came after deputies said Jeffrey Jones, of Key West, was at the restaurant’s bar wearing a black T-shirt with white lettering that reads, “Support Your Local Outlaws.” Three Pagan's MC members showed up and proceeded to forcibly walk Jones outside the restaurant and hold him against his will.



No one connected with the fight, even the restaurant’s management, wanted to cooperate with law enforcement. The alleged victim, Jones, repeatedly tried to leave the scene despite deputies warning him to stay put. After 11 warnings from deputies, Jones tried once more to leave. Deputies put him in handcuffs and arrested on a charge of obstructing a criminal investigation.

All four were still locked up at the county jail on Stock Island the day after the fight. But Jones was released in the afternoon without having to post bond. The Pagan’s MC members each have bonds set at $150,000.



MCSO detectives had to reach out for help from the Drug Enforcement Administration to view the restaurant’s security video because they said the management refused to hand it over. So detectives obtained a federal subpoena for the video and that prompted management to release it.

New trial in Outlaws MC murder case

Joliet, Illinois, USA (January 26, 2024) - A Will County judge granted a defense motion for a new trial in a case in which a jury found a man guilty of killing a woman at the Joliet Outlaws clubhouse. Judge Dave Carlson based his decision on the “cumulative effect” of all the errors by prosecutors and himself in the 2022 trial.

 

In 2022, a jury found Boshears guilty of killing Katie Kearns, 24, in 2017 at the Outlaws clubhouse in Joliet Township. The jury also found Boshears guilty of concealing her homicidal death from authorities by stowing her body at a barn in Kankakee County. An investigation by the Will County Sheriff’s Office led to the arrest of Boshears in 2017.

Carlson said he was not going to grant Boshears an acquittal – which would have overturned the jury’s verdict – but he would order a new trial based on what he considered the volume of errors committed during the trial.

Man shot outside Outlaws MC Clubhouse

Marion, Indiana, USA (January 1, 2024) - A man ended up in critical condition after being shot in the chest early New Year’s Day in Marion.

According to the Marion Police Department, officers responded to a 911 call at 4:19 a.m. after a caller reported that someone had been shot at 1102 S. Race St. in Marion. The address points to the Outlaw Motorcycle Club, police said.

 

Officers found 42-year-old Charles Hill, of Kendallville, Indiana had been shot in the chest. They began life-saving aid; Hill was taken to a Marion hospital before being transferred to a Fort Wayne facility. He remained in critical condition as of Monday afternoon.



Police executed a search warrant on the property. They located several individuals and secured the location for processing. Investigators then located and collected evidence. The shooting remains under investigation.

Outlaws MC Members Arrested in Florida

Marathon, Florida, USA (December 8, 2023) - The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office is continuing its crackdown on motorcycle clubs. Three men with the Outlaws Motorcycle Club were arrested after a traffic stop in the Florida Keys turned up guns and drugs on Monday, police say.

 

Deputies arrested two Key West men and another man from Tamarac, Florida — all of whom are with the Outlaws motorcycle club — on gun and drug charges following a traffic stop Monday, December 4, on U.S. 1, according to Adam Linhardt, spokesman with the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.



All three men were wearing Outlaws MC clothing and there were open alcoholic beverages in plain view, along with a strong odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle, according to authorities.

Linhardt said deputies found a 9 mm pistol and ammunition, a loaded .40-caliber pistol and ammunition, roughly .3 grams of cocaine and 6.3 grams of marijuana and assorted drug paraphernalia.

Fire Erupts at Outlaws Motorcycle Clubhouse

Saginaw, Michigan, USA (November, 2, 2023) - About 11:24 p.m. on Monday, October 30, Saginaw firefighters received a call for smoke on the city’s West Side. Shortly thereafter, a Michigan State Police helicopter flying overhead reported a heat signature coming from a building on Durand Street, said Saginaw Interim Fire Chief Brandon Hausbeck.

 

At that, crews quickly upgraded their response to a structure fire. They arrived at 1903 Durand St., a private club of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club, to see smoke emanating from it, Hausbeck said. Crews entered the building and extinguished the blaze. There were no civilians inside at the time, Hausbeck said.



The building sustained smoke and fire damage but is not a total loss. The estimated cost of damage, both to the structure and its contents, is $45,000, Hausbeck said.

Outlaws MC members charged with arson

North Providence, Rhode Island, USA (October 20, 2023) - Two members of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club were in court on charges related to two fires at the same location in Scituate. Prosecutors say the same detached garage off Tunk Hill Road caught fire around midnight on June 29th and 5:00 A.M. on July 6th. Investigators from the state fire marshal’s office said they found accelerant at the scene in both cases.

 

The defense attorney argued in court that his client was never there. “I haven’t heard that this young man’s anywhere near this place, other than he’s a friend of a guy,” the defense attorney said. “I know you too. Doesn’t mean we’re setting fires.”



Scituate police conceded that they weren’t able to place the accused at the scene, but they believe he’s the one who ordered the other member to set the two fires. Sgt. Matthew King said surveillance footage showed his car at the scene, and he recited text messages between the two men aloud in court.

While a specific motive for the alleged arson is unclear at this time, police allege that he and the victim had a disagreement with one another. Both are due back in court next week for a status hearing.

Outlaws MC Member Accused of Fleeing Deputies

Daytona, Florida, USA (October 25, 2022) - A member of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club faces seven charges after a deputy sheriff spotted him going over 100 miles per hour on a motorcycle in Flagler County after fleeing a traffic stop in Ormond Beach.

 

Among the new charges are two felony counts of fleeing and eluding with disregard of safety to persons or property. He’s also received seven traffic citations in connection to this incident, including reckless driving, failing to obey law enforcement and knowingly driving with a suspended license.
