(CNN) -- Convicted killer Joran van der Sloot is planning to wed a Peruvian woman in the prison where he is serving a 28-year sentence, his attorney told HLN, CNN's sister network, on Friday.
Van der Sloot, who remains the prime suspect in the 2005 disappearance of American Natalee Holloway, and his unnamed fiancée are working on completing the paperwork required for the wedding, said attorney Maximo Altez.
The couple hopes to be able to marry within the next two weeks, Altez said. They reportedly met while she was visiting another inmate at Miguel Castro Castro prison in San Juan de Lurigancho.
Van der Sloot, 25, pleaded guilty to the murder of Stephany Flores, whose body was found in May 2010 in a Lima hotel room registered in the Dutchman's name.

Women are strange with their fascination with "bad boys." Whenever some guy gets convicted of a horrible crime, he gets flooded with letters and marriage proposals from women.
I wonder if it ever goes the other way? I mean is Jodi Arias right now getting letters from men?

prison for killing one woman (and may well have killed another ).

These women who attach themselves to murderers are obviously seriously damaged psychologically.
