A high-ranking Finks bikie was shot dead as he tried to steal up to $250,000 from the home of a man suspected to be linked to an underworld gang.

Jamie Goodworth, 32, was part of a group who tried to break in to the property of a man with suspected links to the Assyrian Kings just after midnight on February 24, 2024.

But as Goodworth, the bikie gang’s Sergeant at Arms, tried to break the front door down, the man on the other side opened fire from close range, shooting him twice.

An unconscious Goodworth was dumped at the door of Liverpool Hospital by his associates, before dying during emergency surgery.

The Daily Telegraph can today reveal incredible new details after months of mystery surrounding Goodworth’s death, at the same time as relatives tell of their heartbreak at losing a young father who in their eyes was “far more than just a member of the Finks”.

Goodworth’s mother Karen Nagle said her son had died just weeks after welcoming a young daughter into the world – his second child – and that life for her family “will never be the same”.

“As you can imagine, we are grieving, my heart is broken,” Ms Nagle said.

“My son was so much more than just a member of the Finks motorcycle club … he was funny, caring and would put any one before himself.

“He was a devoted grandson, brother, uncle, partner, daddy and most importantly, my son.

“The day I lost Jamie, I lost me… life will never be the same for us.”

Goodworth’s mother Karen Nagle said life for her family “will never be the same”. Picture is Goodworth’s body being driven out of his funeral last month by Finks OMCG members.

Sources said the attempted break and enter on the home occurred after the Finks OMCG found out the man was storing a large amount of cash at his home.

It is understood that when Goodworth and the other men arrived at the Bonnyrigg property, another member of the group was given the responsibility of trying to break down the door.

But after unsuccessfully trying several times, Goodworth – a keen gym goer who regularly posted musclebound selfies on Facebook – took over.

“Jamie said ‘get out of the way’ and broke the door down,” a source said.

Goodworth’s coffin is driven out of his funeral last month by Finks OMCG members. The NSW Police State Crime Command Homicide Squad are leading the investigation into his death.

“But the guy was standing there on the other side and opened fire on them. It could so easily have not been him.”

As the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Finks, Goodworth was given a spectacular send off last month with dozens of fellow bikies and associates gathering at Pinegrove Memorial Park in Minchinbury.

The bikies were impossible to miss among the crowd of hundreds, with some wearing Finks colours, others sporting intimidating haircuts and almost all featuring some kind of tattoo.

A large contingent of Goodworth’s teammates from amateur Central Coast rugby league league team the Budgewoi Bulldogs also attended alongside family and friends – including his fiancee Amanda.

So far no one has been charged over Goodworth’s death, with the State Crime Command Homicide Squad leading the investigation.
