Nicola Annabel Teo
Nicola Annabel Teo is an Australian woman who in 2019 was charged with four offences including dangerous driving occasioning grievous bodily harm. Police had alleged that in September 2019 a car being driven by Teo had hit a man near the town of Wisemans Ferry in the state of New South Wales. The man was placed in an induced coma and then spent three months in intensive care.[1][2][3][4][5]
Teo had pleaded not guilty. Media reports suggest that Teo's defence would be based on automatism, a rare defence in which it is claimed a person acts involuntarily.[6][7][8][9][10]
Teo's trial was due to begin on 28 June 2021. On 22 June 2021 the prosecution announced that the case would be dismissed, apparently through nolle prosequi. The prosecution declined to discuss the reasons for the dismissal.[11][12][13][14][15]
Teo is the second eldest daughter of wealthy Australian surgeon Charlie Teo.[16][17]
The man who was allegedly hit by Teo's car is notorious former bikie Jock Ross.[18][19][20][21][22]
