MONTREAL – The murder case involving the deaths of two men who were shot in the parking lot of a McDonald’s restaurant early in 2010 has not ended with the suicide of the Hells Angel who ordered their deaths.
Brian Patrick McGuire, 50, of LaSalle has appeared at the Montreal courthouse charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Kirk Murray and Antonio Onesi.
The two men were killed on Jan. 24, 2010, outside the restaurant in Notre Dame de Grace.

Two men who took part in the double homicide turned informant in the case and implicated Jeffrey Albert Lynds, a Nova Scotia man who was a member of the Hells Angels Nomad chapter in Ontario when Murray and Onesi were killed.
As his trial date neared, Lynds committed suicide at the Rivière des Prairies Detention Centre earlier this year.
According to evidence heard during the preliminary inquiry, Robert Simpson, one of two brothers who agreed to give evidence in the case after they were arrested, admitted to being the gunman in the double slaying and testified that he did it for Lynds.
The case appeared to come to an end with Lynds’s death, but on Tuesday, McGuire was arrested by the Montreal police major crimes squad and now faces the two murder charges.
McGuire allegedly had a direct role in the two murders.
McGuire will remain in custody and cannot have a bail hearing until his case is transferred to Superior Court. The next date is his case was set for March 15.
