Unrecognizable in prison, the man who led the Hells Angels in the deadliest gang war in Quebec history now dreams of fighting a bloody battle against them.
The ideas of revenge of the former head of the Hells are revealed in the book Le Parloir – Manigances et déchéance by Maurice “Mom” Boucher , written by journalists Eric Thibault and Félix Séguin from our Bureau of Investigation, available in bookstores from tomorrow .
“They know that moé, I will revenge myself. All those who did to me what … If I ever go out, it is the first that I will kill ”, launches Boucher in a punished language while his daughter Alexandra visits him in the penitentiary with super-maximum security of Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines.
He has been serving a life sentence there for almost 20 years for ordering the murders of two correctional officers in 1997.
The conversations to which the authors had access were recorded by the police in 2015 during the Magot investigation project, carried out while Boucher was plotting to try to have the kingpin Raynald Desjardins killed.
The convict, whose last known picture of the public was from 2005, has changed a lot. Aged and ill after years in prison, he is unrecognizable with his overweight and big white beard.
He is not the same anymore

The cut bridges
“I hate them all, but there is a lot of it, yes. If they don’t think about it or have forgotten it, well, I haven’t forgotten […]. Worse it will hurt apart from that, ”spits the 67-year-old prisoner, talking about the bikers he led with an iron fist during the 1990s, until his conviction.
The Quebec Hells, however, cut ties with him by expelling him from the gang in a unanimous vote of all the members gathered in assembly in the spring of 2014.
For them, their former leader is now part of “the past”, said one of them, according to police documents cited in the book.
Boucher never digested it. He even noted the date of his rejection in an address book that the police entered in cell number 104 where the fallen motorcyclist spends most of his time. It wrote: “OUT-HA March 22, 2014”.COURTESY PHOTOOn a notebook seized in Boucher’s cell, the police found the inscription OUT-HA March 22, 2014, in reference to the date he was expelled from the Hells during his imprisonment.
“The world, they love me (sic) not”, he adds with reference to the world of criminal bikers, aware that several ex-brothers in arms hold him responsible for their incarceration in Operation SharQc linked to their role in the war against the Rock Machine which left 165 dead in Quebec between 1994 and 2002.
“It’s not good for me”
We learn in this book that Boucher is inhabited by strong feelings of resentment and injustice towards the criminal gang whose effigy and initials were still tattooed on his body in 2015. He calls some Hells “cowards”, without them. appoint.
“I was all the time ‘at bat’ for them, he reminds his daughter bitterly, alluding to his former colleagues in the Hells during the biker war. It was me who made them eat. There, it is me who is in prison. Worse, it’s not good. “
GETTING OUT OF PRISON WOULD BE “A MIRACLE”
In the parlor, “Mom” Boucher affirms to her daughter that he has “already (his) plan” to exercise his revenge against his ex-brothers in arms if ever he were to regain his freedom.
But it would take “a miracle”, he adds, pessimistic about his chances of ever leaving the penitentiary.
When his daughter suggests to him that he would be a little too old to embark on a stressful vendetta, Boucher responds in the negative.
“I lived my life the same,” he said at this time, referring to his entire life marked by violent conflicts and armed confrontations.
Resentment “for life”
The one that the bikers had nicknamed “Mom” because he behaved like a mother with them with his questions and his advice expresses in particular his hatred towards a veteran of the Hells.
Boucher calls him a “hypocritical host” when he learns that this biker had gone on a trip to the South with his former mistress, who is the mother of his daughter Alexandra.
Frustrated, the convict then presumes that they did not “just eat chips together” during the trip …
“Moé I forgive, but I do not forget,” he said, adding that he held a grudge “for life”.
Already in life imprisonment, he received a symbolic 10-year sentence in 2018 after being found guilty of conspiracy to murder.
Friday evening, the JE program , on TVA, will be devoted to this investigation conducted in 2015 on “Mom” Boucher, in addition to presenting testimonials from members of her family.
HE HATES INFORMERS AND LAWYERS
Maurice Boucher also has a lot on his heart against his former proteges who have become informers and against lawyers whom he describes as useless.
Without filter, the former head of the Hells Angels does not need to be asked to spit out his venom during conversations with his daughter Alexandra, extracts of which are reported in the book Le Parloir .
“Godasse, the disgustingly dirty!” »He exclaims when he learns that his ex-henchman turned informer, Stéphane« Godasse »Gagné, could obtain his parole.
Boucher, who is incarcerated in Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines in the only “super-maximum” security penitentiary in the country, claims that this former member of the Rockers school club from whom he ordered the murders of two prison guards in 1997 “told lies” in court by testifying for the Crown at his trial in 2002.
“I got f …”
“Mom” also pours his gall on the lawyers, to whom he claims to have “given all [his] money” to ensure his defense and “to try to get rid of the informers”.
“I trusted them blindly. But I got screwed, ”Boucher told his daughter Alexandra, saying he made“ a big mistake ”.
He even claims that “the lawyers are just there for you to pay them […] because you wouldn’t have any, and that wouldn’t change anything”, adding that some members of the Bar that he does not however identify by their name is “eaters of m …”.
