The Prisoner stated she was born in Hong Kong and was brought up in a poor family in the New Territories. She had nine brothers and sisters, but only four of them (one brother and three sisters) have survived. The Prisoner was the youngest daughter in the family. Owing to their poor circumstances, the Prisoner received practically no schooling. She helped her parents to sell broad-beans, and cut fire wood in her childhood for a living.
When she reached the age of about fourteen, she worked with her father at Cafes and teahouses in Yuen Long, washing dishes. After she had worked with him for about a year she left home of her own accord ostensibly to work as junior amah for a living.

According to him, she had been operating a call-girl racket at Pak Sha Road for about two years before the offence happened.
