True Crime | True Crime Podcasts on Youtube | True Crime Documentary In this episode of True Crime Legacy, I will talk about Domenic" Mick" Gatto. Domenic "Mick" Gatto (born 6 August 1955) is a professional mediator within the Victorian building industry; and a debt collector. Gatto was named as a standover man during the Royal Commission into the Building and Construction Industry. A veteran of Melbourne's underworld, Mick Gatto is one of the few survivors of Melbourne's Gangland Wars. Many of the victims were his long-time friends. Today the former heavyweight boxer runs Elite Cranes, a crane company that employs about sixty people, and Arbitrations and Mediations Pty Ltd., among others. The son of two Italian immigrants from Calabria, Gatto was raised in Melbourne and commenced working in the fruit and vegetable industry. A former boxer, in the 1980s and 1990s, Gatto was involved in Melbourne's illegal gambling scene. In 2004 Gatto was given a ten-year gaming ban, subsequently increased to a life ban. In 2004 Gatto was charged with the murder of Andrew Veniamin, a suspected underworld hitman. Gatto was remanded in custody for 18 months. He was found not guilty at trial, during which Gatto claimed he had acted in self-defence after Veniamin pulled out a .38 and threatened to kill him. Gatto claimed that during a struggle he was able to turn the gun around on Veniamin and fire one shot into his neck, and one shot in the eye. He also claimed that during the argument, Veniamin had implicated himself in the deaths of Dino Dibra, Paul Kallipolitis and Graham Kinniburgh. At the time of charging Vince Benvenuto with the 2002 murder of Victor Peirce, it was alleged that Gatto had links to both men and to Faruk Orman, the man later convicted of Peirce's murder and acquitted in 2019. No charges were laid against Gatto. ⏳ ⏳ 00:00:00 – Intro 00:00:46 – Life Update 00:08:55 – Mick Gatto, early years 00:12:33 – Mick Gatto, a boxer 00:15:17 – Mick Gatto, a criminal 00:23:19 – The Cole Royal Commission 00:27:07 – The Moran Family 00:30:46 – Gatto’s involvement in the 90’s mob wars 00:43:56 – Gatto and Dr. Teo 00:50:17 – Stephen Dank and the Essendon Football Club supplements controversy 00:52:25 – Gatto’s tax struggles 00:55:29 – Defamation lawsuits 01:01:32 – Nicola Gobbo 01:12:16 – Justin Gatto 01:20:30 – Sarah Gatto 01:24:23 – Summary & the end Your source for the life and history of infamous gangsters ... and some other stuff, too.
