Head of Christian bike club gets probation - San Jose Mercury News: "leader of a Christian motorcycle group that police believe is a gang front was sentenced to three years of probation on charges stemming from a 2008 bar brawl with Hells Angels members
Phillip Aguilar, 62, pleaded guilty last week to a single count of being a prohibited person in possession of ammunition. In exchange, prosecutors dismissed three other charges against him, including street terrorism, said Farrah Emami, a spokeswoman for the Orange County district attorney's office.
Aguilar is founder of the Set Free Church in Anaheim and leader of the Set Free Soldiers, which he says is a Christian motorcycle club dedicated to helping recovering addicts. Police and prosecutors believe it's an outlaw motorcycle gang.
Police raided the Set Free compound after a brawl erupted at a Newport Beach bar that ended in the stabbing of two Hells Angels members. A Set Free member was punched with a billiard ball, according to police.
Police arrested Aguilar and six associates during the raid a week later.
Set Free member Jose Enrique Quinones, 43, of Anaheim, later pleaded guilty to attempted murder and was sentenced to eight years in prison.
Four other Set Free Soldiers, including Aguilar's son, were charged with weapons and gang-related crimes.
A Hells Angels member has a June trial on gang-related charges, but a judge tossed charges against another Hells Angel because of questions about a detective's honesty."
