The Khalil Case

Michael Khalil was national president of the Avengers Motorcycle Club (AMC), an organization with local chapters in several states. He was convicted of conspiring to conduct the affairs of an organization through a pattern of racketeering, attempting to commit a violent crime in aid of racketeering, and two counts of distributing marijuana.

There was evidence that, at Khalil's direction, the club planned violence against a rival motorcycle club, the Iron Coffins, whose members frequented locals bars in a county where AMC also had a chapter.
