Famous murders committed by a Hells Angels

There have been several high-profile murders committed by members or associates of the Hells Angels motorcycle club over the years. One of the most famous cases is the 1969 murder of Meredith Hunter, who was fatally stabbed by a Hells Angel during a Rolling Stones concert at the Altamont Speedway in California. The incident was captured on film and has since become a notorious symbol of the violence and chaos of the era. However, it should be noted that not all Hells Angels engage in criminal activity and the vast majority of club members are law-abiding citizens.
