The year was 2003, and Nicola Gobbo found herself teetering on the edge of a slippery slope.
On Grand Final Day, there had been a burglary at one of Tony Mokbel's drug houses in the south-eastern suburb of Oakleigh, and disgraced drug squad detective Paul Dale, his police partner David Miechel, and Terence Hodson were arrested for stealing $1.3 million. In what could be considered the opening act to her prolific performance as a police informer, she told the royal commission that she wanted to"live up" to Mr De Santo's expectations.
