Keith George Faures father Norman George Faure who was a heavy weight at the top of tree in the old jungle out there, underworld times in the criminal world of '' Painters and Dockers '' on the Melbourne wharfs and waterfront in the post razor gang days after Squizzy Taylor times, he was a old Melbourne standover man, safebreaker, thief and robber in post war Melbournes 1940,s1950,s and 1960,s done time in Pentridge. He was murdered by another Melbourne criminal, over crim control turf warware in the Dockies wars. era of the 1960,s. Keith Faure has a Brother Noel who was a meatworker and slaughterman, when he wasn't doing armed robberies. Noel like Keith followed in their fathers footsteps. And both built up reputations of notoriety in and out of Pentridge Gaol. Noel and Keith have committed many contract murders in their days as standover men and enforcers, and are both armed robbers and have both in their times in Pentridge and other Victorian jails controlled the drug trade. Both have spent most of their lives locked up in prison. Keith George Faure had other brothers and cousins in Pentridge in the 1970,s. Chopper Read would of been the best bloke to tell all about the Faure family. The Faures have been involved in a large part of Melbournes Painters and Dockers violent crime in the 1960,s and 1970,s. And only recently a few years back, Keithy Faure was finally given a life sentence for the contract murder and attempted murder of the Godfather of the Moran clan, Lewis Moran and his minder Bert Wrout, who was also nearly killed in the Brunswick pub that they were regular drinkers. Noel Faure is also doing a long prison sentence again. And Keithy Faure has by rumour, turned Dog on him to get a better prison sentence deal. Keith Faures health in jail is rumoured to not be very good either. From Top Pentridge Prison Heavy crim to a dying man behind bars. If I can get any more information from my archives on famous Pentridge Crims like Keithy George Faure or his Brother Noel and his other brothers and cousins, I will post it here on the Aussie Criminals Pentridge Experiences page. Keithy George Faures biggest claim to fame is that once in the 1980,s had his full mugshot photo on the front page of the old Melbourne Sun Herald, over a horrible violent murder he done of a innocent jeweller in a Armed Robbery he was attempting. Also he was in the Herald Sun in May 1990, when a Pentridge Prisoner tried to murder him, by badly stabbing him in ''B''.Division cell block of Pentridge, over prison power play in the drug trade. He is played by actor Colin Carpenter from the comedy company in the 1990,s, who plays the part in the first series of Underbellys Melbourne Gangland Wars, which the law got banned to screen in Victoria. Keithy Faure was still on trial at that time, as was also the case with Tony Mokbel. Col Carpenter is the Hitman who steps up to knock off , with the Runner Victor Brincatt and ambush and shoot Lewis Moran, played by Colin Freils. a good bit of acting I thought
Keithy George Faure biggest mistake is that he let Mark Chopper Read and his Overcoat gang, get a bigger reputation in gaol and take over ''H''.Division and control the bashings and murders in the rest of Pentridge throughout the 1970,s and 1980,s. The Faures were all bad, but the Chopper was mad. and they all branded him a Dog. Years later in the Naughties 2008, Keithy George Faure him self becomes a Dog and betrays his brother Noel. Ha Ha.
