A notorious cult leader convicted of child sex offences has revealed what went on behind bars as he proclaimed his innocence in a bizarre YouTube video.
Shoalhaven cult leader William 'Little Pebble' Kamm described how he had human faeces and urine thrown at him by fellow inmates in Goulburn jail when he was serving nine years for raping two 15-year-old girls.
In a 37-minute video, titled 'Conversation with William Kamm', the 66-year-old spoke out about how he was treated inside the walls of the prison cell.+5
He described Goulburn jail as 'one of the worst jails in Australia' and believed he was targeted because of his 'high-profile' status.
'As soon as you're tagged with a sexual offence you're honoured as the worst of the worst,' Kamm said in the video, which was uploaded on August 23.
'Inmates would then climb up the fence - about 15 to 20 feet high - and take rocks, milk cartons with urine and hard apples and throw it at you and excretions (sic) at you while you were walking to get to the visiting area.
'They did this to me many times and the [prison] officers just stood back [and] did nothing.'
Kamm also revealed how he would receive death threats from other inmates - and when he notified authorities, they simply told him to 'just watch your back'.
'Well it's not exactly easy to watch your back when half of the place hates your guts,' he said.+5
Kamm claimed he was placed in a cell with another prisoner, who had murdered his fellow inmate after cutting him up into pieces before discarding his body.
'I was placed in a cell with a person who had murdered his inmate, cut him into pieces and flushed him down the toilet,' he claimed.
'And the only reason they could find out that that actually happened was, the bones were too big to flush down the toilet so they placed me in the cell with that person. They don't really care, there's no real welfare for the inmates.'
He also shifted the blame on the media for his conviction, claiming his trials were overshadowed by the media coverage that was made against him.
'We fought strenuously in court but we had really no chance because of the media, who publicised (the case) constantly,' he claimed.
'Therefore to have a fair trial would be impossible but we couldn't do anything about it and we already knew afterwards there would be no chance for me in the court.'+5
Last month, Kamm made an appeal in the NSW Supreme Court to stop monitoring his movements after he was ordered to wear an electronic tracing device.
He placed under a supervision order over concerns he could reoffend or rejoin with members of his sect on the South Coast.
As part of his strict parole conditions, Kamm must also stay away from females under the age of 17, adhere to a curfew and remain in NSW but avoid Nowra.
However, Kamm appeared confident in the video, claiming his supervision order could be overturned in the next year.
'My understanding through my lawyers and through those higher up is that my conviction should be overturned in these next 12 months or so,' he said.
His supervision order is expected to expire in January 2021.
