Brian Jeremy (1969-2008) was the Club Secretary of The Lost MC's New Jersey chapter under President Billy Grey. After Grey's arrest in 2008, Jeremy blamed Johnny Klebitz for setting him up, leading to a civil war within The Lost MC that would lead to Jeremy's murder at his North Kearny safehouse.
Biography[]
Brian Jeremy was born in North Kearny, New Jersey in 1969, and he was already a criminal by the time he was sixteen; in 1985, he was convicted of grand theft auto. In 1986, he would be arrested for grand larceny, for murder in 1989, and for possession of cocaine in 2005, all of which were committed while he was a member of The Lost MC outlaw motorcycle gang. Jeremy became the loyal Secretary to President Billy Grey, and he harbored anti-Semitic feelings against Vice-President Johnny Klebitz, as Jeremy was a racist and a man who was fiercely loyal to Grey. Jeremy opposed the truce with the Angels of Death during Grey's time in rehab, and he showed his fierce loyalty to Grey whenever Klebitz and Grey got into arguments; Jeremy would always defend his boss.
Jeremy in 2008
After Grey's arrest by the NYPD in 2008, Jeremy blamed Klebitz and Jim Fitzgerald for ratting him out to the police, and he left the Lost MC's clubhouse in North Kearny to move into his own house further south. Jeremy became the leader of his own biker gang, and he nearly wiped out the rival faction of the Lost MC in an ambush on the Hudson River waterfront. Klebitz decided to track him down, and Klebitz was informed of Jeremy's location by Pegorino crime family capo Ray Boccino, who wanted for the Lost MC's civil war to end in order for the Pegorinos to maintain the stability of their allies in The Lost MC.
Death[]
Jeremy, dead
Johnny Klebitz drove to Jeremy's house in the residential area of Kearny, and he called Clay Simons and Terry Thorpe for backup. Simons and Thorpe moved to the back of the house to cover the exit as Klebitz threw a grenade through the house's window, starting a fire in the house and forcing Jeremy's bodyguards to flee. Klebitz and his friends gunned down the bodyguards, and Klebitz shot at Jeremy with a shotgun as he tried to flee to his motorcycle. Klebitz contemplated sparing Jeremy, but Jeremy repeatedly attempted to escape. Klebitz floored Jeremy with a shotgun blast, mortally wounding him, and Jeremy's bike caught fire as a result of several gunshots. As Jeremy got up from the ground, his nearby motorcycle exploded, killing him instantly. Jeremy's death ended The Lost MC's civil war, although the chapter was nearly wiped out due to the infighting.
