Hells Angels Leader’s Former Wife Posts Bail

The ex-wife of Hells Angels leader George Christie Jr. was released from jail Thursday morning after four months in custody over drug-and-racketeering allegations involving the biker gang.

Cheryl Christie, 54, posted $100,000 bail after a judge ruled that the money had come from a legitimate source.

She was one of 28 people indicted in February in connection with a narcotics ring that allegedly stole prescription drugs from an Air Force base and sold them to high school students in Ventura and Ojai. All those arrested have pleaded not guilty.

Christie’s bail was previously set at $500,000, but an appellate court ruled that was excessive.
