A Scottish notorious child killer has slammed her partner in crime in an outspoken attack.
Rachel Trelfa has accused former civil partner Nyomi Fee of being a 'master manipulator', the Daily Record reports.
The pair were convicted of murdering Trelfa's son Liam in 2014 who suffered fatal heart injuries similar to those found on road crash victims.
Trelfa wrote: 'My ex, Nyomi Fee, abused me and is a master manipulator and lies through her teeth. She messed my head up big time.'
Liam was badly neglected and spent the last few days of his life in agony from an untreated broken leg and fractured arm.
At the couple's trial, Nyomi Fee was described as 'domineering' and it was claimed she was the 'main actor' in Liam's murder.
Fee got a sentence of 24 years and Trelfa was given just six months less for her appalling part in allowing and contributing to the murder of her son.
Trelfa's condemnation of her ex came in a character reference she wrote for her prison pal, killer Jayney Sutherley.
Trelfa believes Fee manufactured accusations against Sutherley, who was cleared in court of waging a homophobic and transphobic vendetta against Fee and her trans lover Alex Stewart – who was known as Alan Baker when jailed for murder in 2013.
Hairdresser Sutherley – who killed a man with scissors – had been accused of persecuting Fee and Stewart.
Trelfa wrote about Fee: 'She messed my head up big time but Jayney has been there and supported me.
'I can say, hand on heart, that Jayney is not homophobic in any way or ever insulted me. She is a lovely person who will help anyone.
She adds: 'I would just like to say I have a very nice friendship with Jayney. She has taken me for me and taken me under her wing. She is so supportive with me.'
Trelfa says she is also in a relationship with another woman despite being behind bars. She said: 'I am gay and in a relationship with a woman. Janey has been there for me if I have any problems.
'We work together in the hairdresser's and she has taught me so much. I have a lot of time for her.'
Rachel Trelfa and Nyomi Fee moved from Ryton, near Newcastle-upon-Tyne, to Fife in December 2011, after Trelfa left baby Liam's father.
Their trial at the High Court in Livingston in 2016 heard how Fee tried to blame Liam's death on another child.
Doctors found Liam had suffered a ruptured heart from a blow or blows to his body. They also discovered double fractures of his thigh bone and arm. In total they counted more than 30 injuries on his body.

The evil pair locked two other boys in a makeshift cage, part of which was kept under their mattress.
Jayney's trial in May heard how she was accused of being transphobic, largely because she insisted on calling Stewart – who has full male biology – a man.
Sheriff Millar found the charges not proven.
It emerged the charge had prevented Sutherley from applying for parole for more than a year.
Sutherley, now 51, stabbed 40-year-old Alistair MacFadyen through the heart at a flat in Fairway Avenue, Glenburn, Paisley, in June 2019.
She was sentenced to six years and eight months after pleading guilty to culpable homicide. She was originally accused of murder.
The Crown accepted the reduced plea on the basis of provocation.
The victim had been out of prison for two days when he was stabbed. In 2013 Baker invited John Weir, 36, into his home in Bonhill, West Dunbartonshire, before stabbing him at least 16 times. He claimed self-defence but was convicted of murder.
After identifying as a woman, the killer was transferred from a male prison to HMP Greenock, where they became involved in a relationship with Fee. The couple are believed to be engaged.
The relationship has caused fury among other prisoners, who claim the couple have been given freedoms that others cannot enjoy.
The Sutherley trial heard claims that the couple had sex in prison showers, were granted time alone in each other's cells and fumbled with each other in public areas in the jail.

British man arrested at Disneyland Paris after trying to marry girl, 9, in private wedding
A private event had been organised to take place in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle at the theme park, but Disney cast members were alerted by the sight of a child. A British man has been arrested at Disneyland Paris after an apparent attempt to wed a nine-year-old girl in a private ceremony. Disney staff alerted authorities after spotting the 22-year-old man with a young girl, who was wearing four-inch heels taped to her feet and accompanied by her Ukrainian mother, at a private event held at 5am on Saturday, before the park opened to the public. The wedding was scheduled to occur at dawn in front of the Sleeping Beauty Castle, reports the Mirror. The French venue had been rented for a wedding, but the organisers did not disclose their plans to Disney. According to reports from BFM TV in France, Disneyland Paris was misled about the event's nature. The organiser allegedly impersonated a Latvian national and used fraudulent documents to secure the contract for the park's privatisation. Reports suggest guests were recruited online through advertisements seeking 200 adults and 100 children aged between five and 15 to act as attendees at a 'rehearsal' for a Disneyland wedding. BFM obtained video footage showing approximately 100 seated guests awaiting the ceremony while a female violin trio performed at dawn on a stage adorned with flowers. The event reportedly cost around £110,000. "Four people were arrested and questioned: the groom, who was believed to be the organiser of the event and is presumed to be British, aged 22; the mother of the child, a 41-year-old Ukrainian woman; and two Latvian nationals aged 55 and 24", according to a statement from the prosecutor's office in the nearby town of Meaux, France. The 55-year-old Latvian man alleges he was hired to impersonate the bride's father for 12,000 euros, only to discover at the last minute she was nine years old, as per local news reports. Disneyland Paris informed French newspaper Le Parisien its team promptly shut down the event and prevented guests from entering the venue. The nature of the wedding remains uncertain, whether it was a publicity stunt or an actual ceremony. A medical examination revealed that the young girl had not been subjected to any violence, stated the prosecutor's office. A police source indicated the groom claims to be the head of a production company and they were filming a video. An updated statement from the prosecutor's office clarified: "So it wasn't a wedding, but a staged wedding filmed with around a hundred extras. They privatised Disneyland Paris, pretending it was a real wedding." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Two suspects have been charged with 'fraud and breach of trust' against Disneyland Paris. One guest at the wedding told Le Parisien: "We all thought we were going to attend a wedding... Everyone was stunned, no one expected it. Disneyland did things very well. "They canceled everything as soon as they realised the bride was a child. We were shocked to see that." Another guest, Yeleen, who attended the ceremony with her daughter, recounted: "I saw a little girl dressed in white. I saw her hair prepared with curls and a lady picking her up in her arms. "At that moment, I was shocked. I realised when I saw the child. It was atrocious."
