Every American is entitled to a fair trial, not some concocted Kangaroo Court trial like this one. When federal agents targeted Outlaws motorcycle club leader Jack Rosga, they intended to get a conviction any way they could, legal or not.

The above self-congratulatory headline neatly draws attention away from the criminal conduct of the prosecutor and undercover agents in this case
One of the most important things prosecutors deliberately played down is the fact that Jack Rosga is a well respected 53-year-old businessman with no prior criminal record. The so-called evidence against Jack is the questionable testimony from federal agents who spent years, along with millions of taxpayer's dollars, infiltrating the Outlaws, building a half-ass case based on hearsay.
Jack was further let down by several disloyal club members who made sweetheart plea deals to plead guilty to lesser charges and agreed to cooperate with the government. By testifying against their former brothers, these gutless punks hoped to get a break at sentencing if their court performances resulted in a conviction for Jack.
This was the second trial for Jack Rosga. At the first trial, a majority of the jurors recognized the witness testimony for what it was: the agents were trying to justify the extreme expenses and their actions, and former Outlaws wanted to save their own asses. That trial ended in a hung jury, not a guilty verdict. The court ordered a new trial, giving the prosecutor yet another chance to convince a jury to accept the tainted testimony.
I personally know how Jack felt watching as club-members-turned- government-witness testified against him in his case. Almost three decades ago, I sat at a table in a courtroom while club members who rode with me, were welcome in my home, and shared our brotherhood, turned into punks and lied on the stand. I also watched the prosecutor knowingly lead witness after witness to give false testimony about my own involvement.
