Wannabe Gang Member May Be Killer

Police in Apopka said a local man may have tried to slay a man to get into a biker gang.

But a representative for the gang said that's just not true

When James Bedsole was taken into custody, authorities said he told them he had been involved with the Warlocks motorcycle club since May.

Investigators said the victim, Chad Brickey, had gotten into a fight with members of the Warlocks in a bar and intentionally rammed his truck into a bike.

Authorities said Bedsole jumped into another truck with Holguy Louissant, a security guard, and chased the victim down and shot him in the back of the head.

Detectives said he was wearing a Warlocks jacket and a patch indicating that he is a Warlocks member in training.

"In order to become a full-fledged, patch-wearing member, it will take a lot of time and trust," Apopka Police Department spokesman Steven Popp said.

"He is not a member of this club, and nothing about this has anything to do with Warlocks," Warlocks attorney Rodger Butcher said.

Police said, according to Florida law, the Warlocks are a gang, and Bedsole is a member because he admitted to criminal-gang membership, adopted the style of the dress and associated with known criminal-gang members.

Bedsole is jailed in Seminole County and charged with first-degree murder.
