 According to Kane, Boucher and Steinert had discussed a plan to win over public opinion by killing one of their own in an especially brutal manner out of the hope that the public would blame the Rock Machine; Dube who was a low level drug dealer working for the Angels was chosen as the one to be sacrificed.A RCMP report described Steinert as a "very violent and cruel psychopath who can't control himself", concluding he was the prime suspect for the bombing.The RCMP stated that the fact that whoever controlled the bomb that killed Dube was aware that there were children playing across the street fit in with what was known of Steinert's character and with what Kane had reported.
