Horse & Carriage in a Bali jail

TIME : 2016/2/25 14:05:51

Bali Nine member Martin Stevens, plans to marry the lady who bring him breakfast in bed. That might be stetching it a bit far, but its definitely breakfast in jail. I don’t blame him, hell if I was on death row in a foreign country, I’d probably marry Mal Meninga (Brian Bosworth for you Yanks) if he brought me breakfast everyday. You’re never going to to be alone with them anyway, so who cares?


Steven’s girl is a 31 year old former Muslim from Java, who converted to Christianity. So looking at the situation objectively, we have a couple of very needy people, who take comfort in unrealistic salvations.

Pro’s for him: Free breakfast…for a long time
Con’s for him: She might run into a nag and there’s no escape

Pro’s for her: Aussie passport. Aussie relo’s. Access to the prison ‘breakfast market’.
Con’s for her: No free lunch, she’s got to make him lunch. Of all the Aussies who visit Bali, this one really isn’t ‘going anywhere’.

Good luck to both of them.
