Heading: Kidnapping of Irwin Nissen

Text: 17 In March 1992, during Daytona Bike Week, Irwin Hitler Nissen, a former Outlaws probate, got into a fight with James Moose McLean, the president of the Outlaws' Atlanta chapter. Bowman heard about the fight and directed Murphy to bring Nissen to him. Christopher Slasher Maiale, another Outlaw, placed a lock on Nissen's motorcycle to prevent him from leaving. 18 The next morning, Dennis Dog Hall, an Outlaw, brought Nissen to Bowman's motel room. Bowman greeted Nissen by punching him in the face. Murphy then held Nissen while Bowman put a knife to Nissen's ear and threatened to kill him if he ever raised his hand against another Outlaws officer. Murphy and Maiale, at Bowman's direction, began beating and kicking Nissen until Bowman told them to get rid of him. Murphy then proceeded to push Nissen off of a three-story balcony, which resulted in severe injuries to Nissen, including a broken ankle.
