A female prisoner accused of attacking convicted murderer Trudi Lenon is ‘likely’ to be charged next week with causing grievous bodily harm.
‘Fetish killer’ Lenon was taken to Fiona Stanley Hospital suffering severe burns to 22 per cent of her chest and back after she was doused with boiling water from a kettle on New Year’s Day.
It is understood that guards inside Bandyup Women’s Prison intervened and helped Lenon before the ambulance arrived. She will be in hospital for several days.
According to Perth Now, police have yet to interview the accused woman.

Trudi Lenon was convicted of the murder of Aaron Pajich (left) alongside Jemma Lilley (right)
The 43-year-old was convicted in November 2016 for stabbing and killing autistic teenage Aaron Pajich in Perth in 2016
She was charged alongside her accomplice Jemma Lilley, 26, for killing Aaron to ‘satisfy a twisted death fetish’.
The 18-year-old’s body was found in the backyard of the Orelia house which Lenon and Lilley shared in July 2016.
Lenon insisted that she was only an accessory in the murder of Mr Pajich, who had been described as having high functioning autism, claiming Lilley was the real killer.
Lilley’s motive for murder was reportedly that it was her ‘life’s ambition’ to kill someone by the time she was aged 25, a West Australian Supreme Court jury was told on in October.

Lilley was reportedly so ‘full of herself and euphoric’ after committing the murder, that she could not help boasting about killing someone to one of her colleagues.
She also left incriminating voice messages to her ‘obsequious and sycophantic’ fellow murderer Lenon, talking about how excited she was experiencing things ‘she had not felt before’.
The 18-year-old’s body was found in a shallow grave and covered with concrete and tiles on June 13 last year.

Evidence of Lilley and Lenon’s guilt could be found in a series of phone messages, where they were discussing killing someone while referring to each other by their bizarre names SOS and Corvina.
SOS was the name of a serial killer in a book Lilley had written while Corvina was the name Lenon used as a submissive participant in the bondage scene.
Lenon is in a stable condition at Fiona Stanley Hospital in Perth’s south.
