Oz Hells Angels Peter 'Skitzo' Hewat son guilty in Jack Daniels heist - update

Beau Peter Hewat, 34, has walked free after a booze heist. He was sentenced to time served. A psychiatrist told the court his offending was driven “primarily” by his meth use and problematic relationship with his father.

The younger Hewat is a debt collector for the club. He and others hijacked a truck containing Jack Daniels whiskey in a brazen robbery.

The elder Hewat was sentenced to 12 months' prison after he pleaded guilty to dealing in $250k worth of stolen truck parts. The court noted the HAMC sergeant-at-arms had been committing crimes for more than 40 years. One of his more infamous convictions was for assaulting a kind-hearted grandmother who had taken in Hewat's lost shih-tzu terrier. The woman had put out posters of the dog after she found it near Hewat's Craigieburn home in 2013. When Hewat claimed ownership, she demanded proof before she handed the dog over. Hewat forced his way through her front door and punched her when she blocked his way.

In September 2015 a former employee of Hewat falsely confessed to stealing a truck because he was afraid of the Hells Angels boss. He claimed to owe $10k to Hewat and was terrified he would be shot if he didn’t make the false confession.
