This brief covers the unique crime group of Outlaw Motorcycle
Gangs. Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs are adult criminal associations
composed of "bikers" living a deviant lifestyle that includes
individual, group, and club criminal behavior. These groups are
sometimes called one percenters, due to the American Motorcycle
Association statement that ninety-nine percent of motorcyclists are
law abiding citizens. While many may be familiar with the
reputation of the Hells' Angels, many may not realize the wide
network of other Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs or the extent of their
involvement in criminal activities. The brief includes a breakdown
of the criminal networks and activities of these groups, which
operate similarly to an organized crime group. It also covers the
evolution of motorcycle clubs to motorcycle gangs. It examines the
recent trend of American-based motorcycle gangs into international
organized crime activities. This book will be of interest to
researcher studying criminology, particularly organized crime and
criminal networks, as well as international and comparative law and
public policy.
