Woman Lies About Vacationing in Florida to Marry Death Row Convict
One of my favorite shows is “Life after Lockup,” and if this lady isn’t on it, I don’t want to live on this planet anymore. Rebecca Short, 26, from Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, decided she had met the lover of her life, and nothing would keep them apart. So she told her family she would be vacationing at Disney World after training very hard to be a dental nurse. She instead flew to Arizona and married Manuel Ovante Jr., according to Daily Mail.
Ovante is on death row after murdering two people and dumping a body in an alley. Now Rebecca wasn’t exactly lying as she made it to Florida and posted Snapchats from the Magic Kingdom. She also went to California and posted photos of the Golden Gate Bridge. However, the real shocker was when her family saw her together with a man in an orange jump suit. Pretty sure he’s not a Disney Character I have ever heard of. She had eloped with Ovante quickly after arriving.
Rebecca is apparently fascinated with obsessed’ with documentaries about serial killers in America. She admired Ovante’s pen-pal profile that has him marked as a “Goofball’ and “Very Loyal.” He was looking for someone who loved to laugh and get this “Enjoys Life.” According to him, he is very easy to get along with.
Rebecca’s friends knew of her obsession with serial killers but never thought she would marry a death row convict. The ceremony took place on April 14, with Ovante being let out on the grounds long enough to complete the ceremony. The wedding cake was a nice touch with black icing and lettering that read “Till Death do us Part” [Source Daily Mail]
