Convicted killer Robert Wayne Edhouse allegedly planned Casuarina Prison breakout via months of coded letters

A convicted murderer charged with plotting a prison break allegedly hatched the elaborate escape plan via coded letters with a Neo Nazi acolyte on the outside. The Sunday Times can reveal that murderer Robert Wayne Edhouse and white supremacist Corey Joshua Dymock allegedly planned the daring breakout from Casuarina Prison over several months. The alleged plot, that would have seen the murderer escape during an appointment outside of jail, was thwarted after security guards found the letters. The letters were immediately passed on to police. Edhouse and Dymock, both 24, faced Perth Magistrate’s Court last week on one count each of conspiracy to commit an indictable offence by forcibly freeing someone from custody. Police allege the escape was to happen outside of the prison — while Edhouse was being transferred to an arranged appointment outside of the jail. It will be further alleged that the plot involved sourcing guns and other associates to facilitate the escape. The pair were charged on February 18 after State Security Investigation Group detectives executed search warrants on Edhouse’s cell and at Dymock’s Huntingdale house. “Items of interest to the investigation were seized,” police said. “Given the network of associates the two accused men have, which includes outlaw motorcycle gangs and members of right-wing extremist groups, there was a real risk there would be an attempt to execute the escape plan.” Edhouse and Dymock were last seen together in the Supreme Court in 2018 as they stood trial for the murder of Alan Taylor, who was killed while he slept in his Girrawheen home in April 2016. Mr Taylor, who had no connection to any extremist groups, was beaten to death after his then-partner Melony Attwood concocted a plan to kill the father of her child with her new lover Edhouse and a 17-year-old follower who cannot be named because of his age. Edhouse and Attwood were found guilty of murder and jailed for 21 years. Dymock was acquitted of murder and was sentenced to five years jail for being an accessory. After getting his sentence reduced to four years on appeal, he was set free last year. Edhouse and Dymock will return to court on March 12. Edhouse is the son of Andrew Edhouse,a long-time Club Deroes bikie member. Andrew was a central figure in the bikie war that raged in Perth in the late 1990s and early 2000s. He most recently made headlines because of his link to the case of missing Kalgoorlie woman Lisa Govan. The West Australian’s true crime documentary Catching Lisa’s Killer: Fear and Murder in Kalgoorlie revealed CCTV footage showing Andrew with Ms Govan hours before she vanished on October 8, 1999.
