Outlaw

The Resume

    (1989- )
    Born in Nigeria
    Family moved to southern London at the age of 8
    Sentenced to life imprisonment
    Incarcerated in Phonthong Prison in Laos (August 2009)
    Released from Phonthong Prison and brought back to the United Kingdom (August 2009)

Why she might be annoying:

    What kind of surname is 'Orobator' anyway?
    Her surname is an anagram of some phrases that don't make sense, such as 'rob a root' and 'boar root'.
    She was imprisoned for owning 680 grams (1.3 pounds) of heroin, which exceeds the amount for which the death penalty can be imposed in Laos.
    She was released from one prison, only to be imprisoned in another one.
    She was convicted for drug smuggling, even though her family said that she had no links to drug trafficking whatsoever.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She was heavily pregnant while in custody, so the Laotian authorities decided not to give her the death penalty.
    She was imprisoned in one of Laos's most notorious prisons.
    Her imprisonment in Laos sparked an outrage from the United Kingdom.
    She described her imprisonment in Laos as frightful, as she wasn't given the right to a fair trial.
