That Western Australian case of the two nutty women who murdered an 18 year old Asperger's guy for a thrill kill has resulted in their conviction, as was entirely predictable.
Their attempts at blaming each other were exceptionally implausible.
CCTV footage showed the teenager leaving the shops with the accused
pair and security footage from their home showed the three entering the
Broughton Way house around 10.30am.
"Mr Pajich did not ever emerge from that house alive," state prosecutor James McTaggart said in his opening address to the jury....
Mr Pajich's body was discovered around a week later buried in the
pair's backyard garotted with multiple stab wounds to his chest and
neck.
The home's loungeroom had a large section of carpet cut out,
concealed by a couch, and police found multiple blood stains and knifes
at the property.
Both women denied murdering Mr Pajich and blamed each other.
Lilley
claimed she was unaware Mr Pajich had been killed and that Lenon must
have murdered him and concealed the crime while she was taking a
three-hour nap in the next room.
Lenon however admitted witnessing Lilley stab Mr Pajich to death, claiming she helped conceal the crime out of fear.
Bear in mind this:
Both originally lied to police and told detectives they had not seen
Mr Pajich the day he went missing but later admitted he had visited
their home.
During the trial, the jury heard how Lilley was
obsessed with serial killers and knives, and had told a friend she
wanted to kill someone before she turned 25.
She often referred to herself as SOS, a serial killer character she created for a book she wrote as a teenager in 2007....
Lilley, who took the stand for five days during the trial, claimed
messages between her and Lenon about killing someone were role-play for a
new book she was writing.
She claimed she was in character when she wrote Lenon a long message 13 days before the murder.
"I
feel as though I cannot rest until the blood or the flesh of a
screaming, pleading victim is gushing out and pooling on the floor,
until all the roads and streets are streamed red and abandoned, and the
fear in the back of everyone's minds and on the tongue of each human
that's left standing is SOS," it read.
"I cannot shift this belief that the world has become not only ready for me, it needs me to be ready."
Lenon replied: "It's definitely time. I am ready. You are ready".
They should stay in jail for a very long time. Preferably til dead...
