California Sheriff’s Deputy accused of living double life with outlaw biker gang, police say

A Southern California Sheriff’s Deputy is accused of living a double life as a member of an outlaw motorcycle gang as police found an arsenal of firearms at his home — including a stolen shotgun from his department.

Deputy Christopher Bingham, 45, was arrested after he was caught riding with two members of “a local Outlaw Motorcycle Gang” on March 23, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.

Bingham, an 18-year Sheriff’s Department veteran, allegedly had an unloaded, unregistered firearm and was booked at the Smith Correctional Facility but was later released.

The department had been on Bingham’s tail since January 2024 when police caught wind that he had been riding and socializing with members of the gang, prompting officials to open an investigation into the deputy.
