If feel compelled to relate a story that was told to me first had by the person himself. I work in a large rather notorious prison here in the USA, Folsom State Prison in California. This will be my 20th year, lord willing. For most of those years I was the Superintendent of the license plate factory. I tell you this, so I can tell you what one of my 'lifer' inmates told me. I have every reason to believe what he told me. He had a long criminal history and is in prison for life. This was just one of many stories of criminal exploits I have heard. Most come with very well documented 'credentials'!
In his earlier crime days, before he took to killing people, he was a smuggler. He smuggled marijuana from Mexico into Calif. One time he got caught at the border. But not by the US, by the Mexican police, with about 700 lbs.!
His crime partner and his biggest customer was an attorney in LA, Calif. This partner hired him an Mexican attorney. The first time he saw his Mexican attorney, the guy said, "As long as you are in the court system there is little I can do". "The sooner you get into a prison, the sooner I can get you out"! "It will cost $17,000, I need $5,000 to represent you in court, and $12,000 to get you out!"
He plead 'Guilty' and received 25 years! And off to prison!
After 4 months in a Mexican prison he was driven out of the prison in the middle of the night, by a Military officer!
He said that the funny thing was that about 6 months later, his attorney partner received a copy of the daily newspaper from Mexico with the story of his escape!
Maybe she will just 'escape' from a Bali prison in a few months!

P.S. This happened in the early 1980's, I'm sure it's a lot more $$$ today!
