Boucher led Montreal's Hells Angels against the rival Rock Machine biker gang during the Quebec Biker War. In 2002, Boucher was convicted of ordering the murders of two Quebec prison officers. He served three life sentences at Canada’s only supermax prison prison in Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines.
Boucher was transferred in June 2022 to get palliative care because of the metastasis of his throat cancer.[3] He died on 10 July 2022 from the disease in Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines, Canada at the age of 69.[4]
