When she is shown in such an emotional state of grief many in Australia share her grief.
This is where the media have played their part in giving the masses an opinion and mean while they have made a bit of money for themselves. |

I suppose you have confidence that the Indonesian authorities got the 9 other cases right, but not in the Corby case? I'm also supposing that you've were as interested in the cases for the 9 as they were taking place, the same way you're interested in Corby's case now? And you think the holes in the cases for the 9 are not too many?
Right... |

Just a quick comparison here.
Bali nine.... heroin strapped to bodies under clothing, entire procedure re:capture and arrest videotaped. Proper fingerprinting and identification done. No reasonable doubt.
Schapelle corby. 4.5 kgs of marijuana found in unlocked bag. Somehow drugs get through both Brisbane and Sydney Airport security undetected (note: security at both airports is state of the art) before being found in Indonesia. Large discrepancy between street value in Australia and Indonesia (i.e makes no financial sense to take risk trafficking marijuana from place where it's worth five times as much. BAG CONTAINING DRUGS NOT FINGERPRINTED.
Depending on your view - the facts in the second situation can feasibly give rise to doubts. The facts in situation one are completely clear cut. |

quote"it seems a pretty powerful argument against Corby that she should have noticed that her bag had doubled in weight" unquote
apparently she didn't pick it up off the turntable... her brother grabed the boggie board while she grabbed her suitcase, the policeman came up and asked her brother was that his bogie board... and Schapelle said no it's mine...... that was the biggest mistake of her life.. so you see she couldn't have noticed a weight difference as she didn't actually carry it... until she had to unzip it....
i travelled the world in 89' and many many many times my suitcase came back with the lock tampered with and unlocked...... so maybe this happened to me too, i was obviously just luckily enough for the drugs to be picked up at their destination, i do know people though that have got back to their motel room and found bags of herion in their suitcases..... it happens more often than what you think... and realistically ( being a non marijuana smoker or drug taker) marijuana is sooo harmless that it's not funny, well compared to taking 20 years off the life of someone.... god she really would have been better off organising a terriost attack, she would of reiceved less time.... |

One should never try and validate third world justice from a civil point of view. There are so many holes in this case one could call them craters.
