Timeline

1955

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.

The son of two Italian immigrants from Calabria, Gatto was raised in Melbourne and commenced working in the fruit and vegetable industry.

1980

A former boxer, Gatto was involved in Melbourne's illegal gambling scene in the 1980s and 1990s.

2002

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.

In proceedings before the Cole Royal Commission, it was heard that Gatto was involved in resolving certain business disputes.

Witnesses attested that Gatto and his business associate, David "the Rock" Hedgcock, had been involved in solving industrial relations problems in the construction industry.

One witness, a representative of Baulderstone Hornibrook expressed the fears of a colleague stating, "...he expressed some concerns about his safety, that people associated with this deal were the sorts of people that break legs..."

Gatto and Hedgcock's solicitor rejected any implication they had used threats or intimidation.

Appearing before the Royal Commission in 2002, Gatto claimed he was being made a scapegoat by the inquiry and strenuously denied he was a standover man.

"'I'm not a standover man. I'm not a man off ill repute. Fair enough I've got a chequered past....but I paid for...whatever I have done wrong. I don't appreciate this nonsense that you are looking for someone to blame to justify your existence here today., to justify 300 investigators and teams of lawyers. You won't be justifying your existence with me. I promise you. I will fight you all the way, tooth and nail."

2004

In 2004 Gatto was given a ten-year gaming ban, subsequently increased to a lifetime 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 handgun 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.
