While in jail for allegedly throwing acid on his ex-girlfriend, a 21-year-old Hawaii man convinced his cellmate to carry out a similar attack on a random person so it would “cast doubt” on his guilt, cops say.

The first attack occurred on April 7, 2023, when a woman outside a Honolulu fitness center reported a man came up to her and threw a liquid on her that caused burns on her face, shoulder, back and legs. Two weeks later, Honolulu police arrested 21-year-old Paul Cameron, the ex-boyfriend of the victim, on attempted murder charges.

While in the Oahu Community Correction Center, Cameron befriended a fellow inmate named Sebastian Mahkwan, who was awaiting trial on unrelated drug and assault charges, said Honolulu police Lt. Deena Thoemmes at a press conference Tuesday. An indictment says Cameron identified Mahkwan as his boyfriend. Police intercepted a series of phone calls in which Cameron arranged to pay Mahkwan’s bond.
