I cannot believe how little the Australian Government is doing.Myself and none of my friends in New Zealand believe that she is guilty. "There but for the grace of GOD go I".
Mr Howard, if you do not take action to free Schapelle, you have no soul. It seems so obvious that she did not try to smuggle the drugs to Bali. Why would you take them INTO Bali?
Simon, its not that I want to harm the innocent, no no no, thems just fightin words cos I'm so angry, I'm a pacifist and want harmony but can't stand the pain myself so have to release it. sorry australia.
I really feel for Schapelle, what is happening to her is so unfair and I can not believe the way they are treating an innocent australian. I hope they can see that she is innocent and release her.. My heart goes out to Schapelle.
I am in Toronto, Canada and I implore the Indonesian govt. to release Schapelle into the hands of the Australian govt.
I am certain that the Indonesian people are Not savages and in view of this, will hear this plea for Schapelle's life.
Life is too precious to waste .......please don't let this one be wasted.
To the Indonesian govt. please show compassion and let Schapelle go.
I can not belive that persons below have turned this into a racist battle. Not only this it disgusts me that persons like "wasnt racist until now" can see joy in causing harm to innocent people. Clearly these people are not ones that I would wish to sign a petition such as this.
Schapelle too is innocent and one can not blame the judicial system in Indonesia, nor the Indonesians for her predicament. We can only blame a group of Australian baggage handlers.
These are the true villians. May God have pity on their souls.
Schapelle I send you my best wishes, and hope that the Indonesian and Australian Government's will ensure your safe arrival back in Australia.
To those of you who insight angry and racists thoughts; all I can say is may you never experience racism or violence in any form. But in the meantime a retraction of your unAustralian comments is warranted.
Please stop this injustice! It should not be up to her to prove her innocence, but for them to prove her guilt. She is one of Australia's daughters who needs our help
Agreed. I have nothing more to add, really. You guys have said it all. I just wanted to write this to add to the petition, as i believe SC should be released as soon as possible and not undergo the harsh indonesian treatment.
Dirty filthy ignorant slopey nigger fucks. YES, indonesia, you, ya lousy rat infested shithole, and yet you are portrayed as a beautiful holiday destination. You are nothing but lousy ignorant niggers and deserve to be bombed, a few balinese primary school machine gun murders will make me laugh out loud, and some serious shopping mall bombings wouldn't go astray either. You will pay for this you slanty one eyed nigger fucks, burn ya dirty fucken nigger cunts, burn!!!
Free Schapelle!!! Bring her home. The judges are trying to make her life hell. How come the people from the Bali bombings can get away with a sentence but she gets treated like a bug for something that is so minor to the Bali bombings!!! Listen to the people. Drug smuggling happens everyday. This could happen to another.
Bring Schapelle home then incendary bomb the entire island of bali, burn it to sea level. I feel more emotion for the chickens, dogs and goats than those balinese neanderthals.
Taking 4.1kg of cannabis into Bali, at Australian prices... I don;t think so... Even if she is guilty (which i have no doubt she is not), by not weighing the bag or fingerprinting it was a gross error and contamination of evidence !!! send her home !!
You make me sick you Indonesian low life close minded people. Swallow your pride and admit you have made a mistake..Next time there is a Bali bombing and a Tsunami i hope that you dicks in Indonesia expect NOTHING from Australia just as you are doing nothing for a INNOCENT australian. I will think twice in future when Bali asks for money and if i ever make a donation again i will personally make sure that it DOES NOT go to Bali.
If everyone can please send this to everyone in the address contact books, and advertise this website as much as possible please do it now! Lets all email the age, herald sun, sunshine coast daily etc. etc.. The English London/ USA times newspaper - we need to get this website advertised. Lets make some stickers with this webiste on and put them on your cars, does anyone sell on Ebay? PLEASE write a description and advertise this link, put it under a surfboard/car/oakley category that gets heaps of hits on Ebay.
We are gonna free this girl...there is 17million people in Australia and 3 fucking Judges who will decide her fate...Fuck that arsehole judge that read a book during her personal plea, next time there is a Bali bombing i will make sure i read a book when they beg for money. ONE VERY LAST IMPORTANT QUESTION...THEY SAID THAT THE JUDGES WAS NOT MOVED BY SCHAPELLE'S PERSONAL PLEA, AFTER SHE MADE HER PLEA. WELL EXCUSE ME DIDN'T THEY SAY THAT THE JUDGES HAD NO IDEA WHAT SHE SAID AS THERE WAS NO TRANSLATOR AND IT WASN'T UNTIL THE NEXT DAY THE LEARNT WHAT THEY SAID????
Bali is a fucked up country and i hope that those 3 judges choke on their coke tonight and die in there sleep..and God sends them straight to hell..
FREE SCHAPELLE...LET JUSTICE PREVAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!
send her home
she wouldnt do such a thing she is not guilty
although i am 13 I believe she is innocent.She has been through enough. she dosent deserve all this and you all no it. were all on your and if your not your not ur a compleat jerk we all see that Schapelle is inocent as i said before BRING HER HOME!!!
Schapelle's speech was made to three judges who cannot understand or speak English. Can someone please explain why her final speech was not interpreted to the judges? Or , why the judges allowed her plea to fall on their deaf ears?
How can the Australian Government sit on their hands when an Australian citizen is being treated in this manner?
What a different story this would be if John Howard's daughter was on trial in that courtroom.
I cannot cope with the thought of Schapelle being in that place, she is innocent. Why hasn't John Howard asked the Indonesian President to give Schapelle a "Presidential Pardon"? This is NOT justice & something needs to be done... FAST!
If I ever hear of somebody planning to travel to Bali or Indo I will do all I can to talk them out of it and if that doesn’t work I will remind them of Schapelle and ask them why they think this can’t happen to them.
It is heart breaking to see the horror that this innocent woman has to endure especially when you consider the minimal reaction of the Indonesian legal system to the bail bombers. Clearly the Indonesian Justice Ststem is only interested in protecting their own and victimising others. The pursuit of truth or justice doesn't seem to apply to our citizens. Australia should withdraw its support for Indonesia and working on bringing Schepple Corby back home
Howard ya miserable little flap of skin, you're so full of shit I'm not surprised your friendly with those darkies, you're scared of them, you weak asshole, Howard you're not fit to lead this country any longer, you're a turd sandwich and a stupid douche.
I can't believe how arrogant those Indonesian judges and prosecutors have been. I don't know about anyone else, but to me it seems like they want her to be found guilty. Like, they don't want to take into account all the evidence that shows her innocence. Not only that, the judges didn't even show any emotion towards her own address to them. I mean, can't they use their common sense? Even though I haven't been to law school, I think I could do a better job in making a judgement, and it's obvious to me that she is innocent. Oh, and Howard, I think you need to clean your glasses or something, because it seems to me you can't see what's happening here. It's as though you'd rather dish out OUR money to other countries like Indonesia, and send Australians on a death mission to Iraq, than to save one of your own. A great leader you are... *cough* bastard *cough*
I have never been to Bali and have always wanted to. Now because of the Corby case, I have no interest in going to Bali and being subjected to the possiblity that anyone may face these circumstances. What also irrotates me is that we gave the Indonesian's more than 1billion in support after the Tsumani, haven't the Indonesian's got any respect for what we've dont for them? More than 88% of Australian's believe Corby is innocent and it seems that no one in authority is listening. Our Government are whimps, they need to be doing more to save all Australian's caught up in the drug issues. I'm also frustrated by the fact that baggage handlers in Australia do not need to get screened at the airports, (I just read that today), the drug bag was not checked for finger prints and cameras at the airports weren'r operating. To many if's to me means not beyond reasonable doubt = innocent.
Along with many Australians, I suspect that Shapelle Corby did not smuggle marihuana into Indonesia in her luggage last year. Why would anyone smuggle a drug into a country where its value is less than in the country from which it came?
How can she prove that the marihuana found in her surf board bag was part of a domestic drug smuggling operation between Brisbane and Sydney that went wrong?
Shapelle is now subject to the law of Indonesia after customs officials found a prohibited drug in her luggage. If she didn’t put it there who did? The circumstantial evidence points to the Australia domestic baggage handlers.
If Shapelle’s luggage was tampered with, it could have also have happened to anyone’s luggage. I urge the Australian Government to ensure that the AFP are taking this matter seriously and investigating the Brisbane to Sydney drug trade - offer a substantial reward for information with protection -ensure that the trade is uncovered. Have discreet talks with the Indonesian President. Take action.
This young woman is likely to be incarcerated in an Indonesian jail for years. If she is innocent then it will be the greatest public miscarriage of justice in the modern era. I am not alone in my thoughts and I cannot do anything, but the government can. It must take action to intervene in this horror story
After the bombings in 2002 tourism fell so much in Bali that they faced a real economic crisis. Australians holidaying to Bali helped them out of that terrible spot. So this is how they repay us after we lost so many fellow Australians that day? They have a lot of nerve to turn aroung now they are back on their feet and threaten to take one more Australian life.
I am so sickened by this horrific injustice of one of my fellow Australians. My thoughts and prayers are with this wonderful strong woman.

Start emailing and causing a bit of trouble for the Getaway program, they always advertise bali as a holiday spot, but never once say how dangerous it is if there are any problems. Kick up a fuss with Getaway until they stop having articles about Bali. They are encouraging Aussies to put themselves into perilous situations. Getaway must stop advertising Bali.
To the person that put the dope in the bag in the first place, you live in Brisbane, we'll find you, maybe in ten years when you've turned christian, and got your own daughter, you'll feel remorseful and come forward, but that will be your death warrant pal, so right now, you've just started a death sentence and the longer you keep your mouth shut, the longer you have to mentally endure and carry your secret. Its just a matter of time, we know you won't be able to keep it a secret forever, hahahaha. Someone is going to murder you for this.
Dear Mr Downer,
I am working as a primary school teacher in Perth Western Australia - normally the demands of my classroom take most of my time - but I am concerned deeply about the situation Schapelle Corby finds herself in and so have decided to let you know my thoughts on the matter.
Over the last six months we have seen a lot of Schapelle in the media - a few experts in body language have looked at Schapelle's verbal testimony and believe that she is truthful.
Most Australians believe that what is presently happening is a travesty of justice.
As an Australian taxpayer I am contributing to the billion dollar relief package our Government has pledged to Indonesia. I am appalled that we are giving that amount of money to a nation who has no care for at least one of our own citizens. I cannot understand why yourself and John Howard have not stepped in to bring Schapelle home.
While Schapelle suffers in that Indonesian jail - many Australians identify with her.
If you leave her in that jail those people who are presently feeling sorrow over her circumstances will eventually reach the conclusion that your Government has the same level of care and respect for all Australians travelling abroad.
While one could say that the decision to travel to Indonesia was a foolish one - (and on a personal note I won't be taking any 'tourist dollars' there) the responsibility for this innocent Australian rests in your hands. There have been several ocassions when I have thought that the circumstances are driving Schapelle towards some form of emotional breakdown. I wonder how she will recover from this episode and when she will be returned to Australia.
I think most Australian feel that Schapelle's life (and blood) is in and on your hands.
So I am going to say something which is unusual for myself. I am begging you to ensure that after the Indonesians deliver their judgement Schapelle is returned home. Some time in a 'minimum security low
No money to the 'poor' Indonesians ever - The government should have enough brains to realise that Indonesia is not a poor country and stop giving them money. Bring back our citizens unharmed and healthy!!!!!
