    Holly's Hell: Sentenced to 31 years In A Thai Prison - Holly Deane-Johns | I Catch Killers
    Former heroin addict Holly Deane-Johns was locked up in a Thai prison for 7.5 years over drug charges. She couldn’t see the hard concrete floor of the crowded cell she shared with hundreds of women, she had a 22 centimetre floor space to sleep on, she had a rotting tooth pulled out by an inmate, she was sick from the food, and she also shared 10 filthy toilets with 2000 women. This was Holly’s Hell.

    • @andrewstones2921
      @andrewstones2921 4 місяці тому +8

      The Thai Prison system is designed to function for Thai people who grew up in Thailand, it doesn’t really make many allowances for non-Thais. Other than drugs, you have to do something pretty serious to have to go to prison unless you are very poor, and if you grew up poor in Thailand then your everyday life would feel like punishment for most westerners with squat toilets, sleeping on the floor etc. its important to understand that Thai prisons are not restricted to the Bangkok prisons where drug smugglers go, there are many provincial prisons and open prisons too. In some prisons the prisoners get to go out during the day and learn vocational skills.

      She’s lucky she was in Thailand, if she’d been in Malaysia she’d have had the death penalty, even on the tiny Island where I grew up they sentenced 4 Australians to the death penalty for smuggling, remember a local boy of 14 being hung for being what we would refer to as groomed these days to hide some guns in his bedroom for gang members- it was horrible as the put the picture of this child hanging on the front page!

    Holly, you are so Aussie! An everyday person, unfortunately you found yourself in a foreign prison, when you were young and vulnerable
    with an addiction. There are always reasons why an addiction occurs, usually because of a trauma or multiple traumas, or an undiagnosed condition. Unfortunately many people don’t understand this. You are courageous, practical, intelligent and down to earth. You can do anything that you want to achieve. Backing you.

I wish my kid would be able to be inspired by this remarkable woman. I wiah she could sit down with my lovely,beautiful daughter over a cuppa. I try all the sensible talks but im just moaning away in her eyes. Great interview. ❤

    Holly great that you are free and changed. But in your own words, you wouldn't give a second thought to you Dad saying get out so in that, with speaking to drug addicts, do you really think it would make a difference? You said that you only wanted the next fix when you were addicted and nothing else mattered.

    Hi Holly, thanks for sharing your testimony of the Thai prison a lot of Australian people would probably be very shocked how they live in these prisons. I go into all the presents in Fiji and I must say they living in luxury compare to you guys in Thailand?

  • @brad.dalton

    They turn off the water everywhere in Thailand, even when there's flooding like there is at the moment in Phuket, there's still water restrictions. Today between midnight and 6am. 10 am and 4pm and tonight between 10pm until 6 am the next day. They do this to show the people who's in charge.

    found it hard that she didn’t have any calling to help the Thai women locked up in Thai prisons for much , much less than her offences? Despite the terrible conditions of the prison, those women kept her safe and alive ! I feel it odd that there was no urge for her to return to Thailand and assist her “Thai Family” spending 7.5 years living in that close proximity to people, surely despite the relief of getting back to your own country, hot water and a mattress, wasn’t there any sense of loss for the friendship of the women left behind?
