Torture and amputations: Dave Turmel of Blood Family Mafia is most-wanted fugitive

The alleged leader of a notorious street gang that is involved in brutal turf wars in Quebec during which victims have been tortured and have had their limbs amputated is the most-wanted fugitive in Canada.

Quebec provincial police said today that Dave "Pik" Turmel, leader of the Blood Family Mafia, is the new number 1 suspect of the Bolo Program, a project operated by a Canadian charity to alert the public about dangerous criminals.

Turmel is wanted by Quebec City police for drug trafficking, conspiracy, and armed assault, and an award of up to $250,000 is being offered until June 3, 2025, for any information leading to his arrest.

The Bolo Program says Turmel's gang has targeted outlaw motorcycle groups to compete for control over drug trafficking in Quebec, and the conflict has been marked by "torture sessions and limb amputations."

The second most-wanted fugitive is All Boivin, who police say is also involved in the violent drug-related turf wars that have erupted in Quebec. An award of up to $250,000 is being offered until June 3, 2025, for information leading to his arrest.

The Bolo Program, which is partnered with the RCMP and many other Canadian police forces, is run by the Stéphan Crétier Foundation, whose founder is the chairman, president and CEO of GardaWorld Security Corporation.
