Framing Dave Burgess

Dave Burgess, son of a career Marine and the nephew of the founders of the Mustang Ranch, managed the Mustang, built and owned the last remaining piece of the original brothel and became a Hells Angel when he was 40. Along the way he made friends and enemies. Most of his enemies worked for the government. In July 2007, Dave Burgess was charged with possession of cocaine and marijuana after a supposedly routine traffic stop in Evanston, Wyoming. Forty-five days later the drug charges were dropped and he was arrested instead for possession and interstate transportation of child pornography. One of the children portrayed in what is still the largest kiddie porn collection ever discovered was the 14-year-old daughter of a fellow Hells Angel. Angels throughout the world were outraged. Hells Angels haters and police gloated. Burgess was convicted after a hasty, four day trial and sentenced to 20 years in federal prison. And, he was framed. This book describes how.
