Applause broke out Friday when a former Hells Angel was sentenced to life in prison for killing four family members 11 years ago.
Gerald Lester was sentenced to 15 years to life for killing fellow biker Billy Grondalski and life without parole for the three other slayings.In his third trial, Lester was convicted in November 1986 for the shooting deaths of Grondalski; his wife, Patty; their daughter, Dallas, 5; and Patricia's son, Nolan Jerami Vandagriff, 17. His first two trials ended in hung juries.
Lester killed the four because Grondalski, also a former Hells Angel, ran out on a drug debt and stole $900 worth of motorcycle club decals, authorities said.
