Tattooed bikie jailed for bashing his landlord and friend

Former bikie kingpin and Bandidos enforcer Jacques Teamo has been jailed for bashing his friend and landlord.

The 48-year-old was sentenced to 18 months behind bars at Southport Magistrates Court on Friday, after the court heard he used ‘standover tactics’ to attack the man who was letting him live at his house.

The court heard that the friend owed $2500-3000 and had agreed to let Teamo and his two children stay at his Tugun property.

However the friendship turned sour after Teamo and his family overstayed their welcome by a few months.

During a confrontation between Teamo and his friend in June, the court heard the former bikie assaulted the man.

‘You’ve punched him to the head … you’ve followed him out to the car,’ Magistrate Joan White said, according to the Gold Coast Bulletin.

‘This isn’t just an ordinary assault,’ she said.

‘This is standover tactics on your behalf because you wanted to stay in this house.’

Despite the 18-month sentence, the tattoo parlor owner will be eligible for parole on December 7.

He was also ordered to also pay $500 in criminal compensation and was not charged with trespassing. 

The sentence is not the first for Teamo, who was handed a 13 months suspended sentence for his role in the 2014 bikie brawl at Broachbeach.

He was among more than 20 Bandidos who stormed Aura restaurant in September 2013 during a turf war with rival gangs.

Just a year earlier in 2012, the tattooed now-ex bikie was shot by Mark Graham, a member of rival gang Mongols.

The Robina Town Centre shooting also led to an innocent woman being shot by Mr Graham.

Teamo’s lawyer Chris Hannay felt the sentence for the June assault was a ‘bit over the top’.  

‘Very disappointed. This is a bloke who’s changed his ways, hasn’t got into trouble for four or five years,’ Mr Hannay said.
