Scott Anthony Rush (born 3 December 1985) is an Australian former labourer who was convicted in Indonesia for drug trafficking as a member of the Bali Nine. In 2005, on his first trip to Bali, Rush was arrested at Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar with 1.3 kg (2.9 lb) of heroin concealed on his body. After a criminal trial, on 13 February 2006, Rush was sentenced to life imprisonment. After appealing against the severity of the sentence, in a surprise outcome handed down by the Bali High Court on 6 September 2006, Rush's sentence was changed to the death penalty. On 10 May 2011, Rush's death sentence was reduced to life imprisonment on appeal to the Indonesian Supreme Court. On 15 December 2024, after an agreement was made between the Indonesian government and the Australian government to arrange the repatriation of the remainder of the Bali Nine, Rush returned to Australia to live freely in the community. Scott Anthony Rush was born on 3 October 1985. Rush grew up in Chelmer, a western riverside suburb of Brisbane. Following his arrest, conviction, and sentencing, it was revealed that Rush had been expelled from Brisbane's St Laurence's College during his Year 10 studies for an incident involving drugs. It was reported that Rush then moved to another Brisbane school, Marist College Rosalie, whence he graduated in 2002.
