Dominatrix’s ‘BDSM sex slave’ admits knife and hammer murder of her ex after telling her ‘I can scare him off, my lady’
A DOMINATRIX’S sex slave had admitted to murdering her ex by beating him to death with a hammer.
Nicholas Cameron was found “fighting for his life” after being targeted by Stuart Lindsay Heron as he left his apartment building on July 9, 2021.
The 39-year-old had walked out with his dog before police found him fatally injured between two cars following an 11-minute attack.
Heron was arrested whilst trying to flee the scene, where he had waited for “hours” to confront Mr Cameron despite not knowing him.
He claimed that seeing Mr Cameron “dealing ice to kids” is what fuelled his attack.
But two folders, titled “target” and “Heide”, identified the real reasons behind the murder.
Further investigation revealed that Heron had submitted himself to slavery in a dominatrix arrangement.
It was also discovered that he had a floor plan of his victim’s home after promising his “lady” he would scare away her boyfriend and ensure he never returned.
Equipped with a hammer and knife, CCTV footage revealed Heron running from behind a car park pillar and launching a brutal and fatal attack which lead to Cameron’s death.
When Heron was arrested nearby a short while after, he was still in possession of the weapons, as well as a dog lead and the victim’s house keys.
Heide Bos was the dominatrix in question and ex-partner of Mr Cameron.
Heron dedicated himself to Bos and quickly took it upon himself to rid of her boyfriend when she complained of relationship problems.
The co-offenders met on an online website called FetLife, made for people interested in BDSM, fetishism and kink.
On the website, Heron wrote: “I pride myself in my service, which includes being a personal play toy … amongst other things.
“I can’t get enough … of being forced to do anything my lady desires.
“I will be your slave, my lady, whether you want me or not. I’m here to serve your every command.”
The 50-year-old visited Bos’ apartment in July 2021 after she complained of Cameron being an “ungrateful f—wit”.
The pair devised a plan to get him to leave town and never return, with Heron claiming he “could be very persuasive”, revealed prosecutor Elizabeth Ruddle.
Bos eventually gave the ‘go-ahead’ after an argument with Mr Cameron and texted the victim asking him to come over while simultaneously telling Heron; “I wish I could come and watch”.
But what was supposed to be a confrontation and assault quickly ended up as a murder.
“There was an agreement between Mr Heron and Ms Bos that he would confront and assault Mr Cameron in some sort of ill-conceived plan to get him to go away and stay away,” Ms Ruddle said.
“But at some point, immediately before or during the confrontation, that plan went awry.”
Heron arrived at Cameron’s apartment building at 8.05pm and hid within distance of what he thought was his car.
But he eventually realised he made a mistake and at 10.37pm he made his way up to the level three car park after entering through an open garage door.
Heron hid behind a pillar before launching the scathing attack on Cameron, which was so severe the victim suffered 14 skull fractures.
Bos tried to make out that she didn’t known Heron but bank records quickly proved otherwise to police.
She was jailed for six years and three months in February after pleading guilty to manslaughter for her part in the plan.
In March, Heron pleaded guilty to murder and returned before the Victorian Supreme Court on Monday for a pre-sentence hearing.
His barrister, Richard Blackwell, said the former diesel mechanic had led a blameless, crime-free life until the attack.
“There’s really nothing, apart from when he gets involved with Ms Bos, that indicates that he’d end up sitting where he’s sitting,” he said.
Heron then described the whole ordeal as the “worst decision” of his life.
He was remanded into custody and will be sentenced at a later date.
