Biography

[edit]

He was formerly an associate of the Finks Motorcycle Club.[2] In 2011 he was jailed for two years for contempt of court after refusing to cooperate with CCC proceedings; as he refused to speak despite not having a right to silence.[3] The CCC proceedings had been initiated following a summons to answer questions about a brawl outside the Perth Motorplex.[4] One year was added to his sentence after he admitted to being armed with a knife at a gentleman's club in North Perth and making a threat to kill.[2]

In 2016 he was jailed for 4½ years after deliberately driving a car into the bedroom of a home in Nollamara. He had been out of prison for six weeks.[5]

In 2020 he was arrested following allegations of attempting to destroy evidence by flushing cocaine down a toilet during a police raid.[6] He received a suspended sentence. This suspended sentence was then enforced after a subsequent guilty plea on a possession charge.[1] He was later charged in relation to an allegation that he carried a handgun into a lap dance at the Doll House Gentleman's Club in Northbridge.[7]
