Australia, Bikie's partner guilty of stealing

OFF THE WIRE
The partner of a WA bikie has been found guilty of stealing trust fund money belonging to the children of a rival gang member and associate.

Tammy Kingdon was accused of taking $54,000 out of the trust fund accounts and using the money to help buy a property that became a clubhouse for the Finks motorcycle gang.

Her partner Troy Mercanti had joined the gang after being thrown out of the Coffin Cheaters.

The trust fund money belonged to the daughters of a member and an associate of the Coffin Cheaters gang who had both died.

Kingdon was found guilty of four stealing charges and a fifth count of property laundering.
