schapelle corby is innocent. you would have to be mad to take in so much drugs into Bali. you know the rules and she would.It just shows how bad our customs is here when leaveing Australia no one cares what goes out only what comes in.It should of been picked up by ex ray or sniffer dogs at Sydney. Anyone can just slip it in.
Stay Strong Schapelle!! Best wishes to family and friends. We all believe you are innocent, we hope all good things and the truth come through and you can return home!!
Schapella is inoccent, let her return to a safe and happy life back in OZ with her family.
The evidence will surface and will prove her not guilty!!!
Best Wishes to her and her family!!!
try to keep strong Schapella as impossible as it sounds. The whole world knows you're innocent except for those ungreatful #**!!'s who have obviously already forgotten what it's like to be helpless.
The sad fact is that the Indonesians also know she is innocent
We all know she didn't do this, why are they doing this to an innocent woman? some parts of the world have barbaric laws that need to be revisited.
Schapella Corby is 100% innocent, the whole world can see this including the indonesian courts, yet she is being penalised for being a westerner. when will the indonesians realise that we are their friends and not their enemies, after all if we were their enemies then why would we have donated our hard earned money to help the tsunami victims in their nation?
Shapelle has continued to maintain her innocence. New evidence has recently come forward, what happened to innocent until proven guilty. It makes me sick - and should make others more aware of this sort of thing happening to themselves - FREE SHAPELLE!!!
god damn it why spend so much time on time while u can use the engery to catch the drugs that are actually harming our society.. HERION, COCCAINe, ETC.
Ms Corby has constantly maintained her innocence. It now appears there is new evidence showing just that. Please end this nightmare for her and her family and send her home to Australia a free woman.
This is unfair, free Schapelle Corby, we all know what we saw on the news, that a man has come foward with evidence that the drugs were planted at an airport by baggage handlers, these drugs were ment to be taken out of the bag b4 they arrive in bali, unfortunatly they were missed, may the people responsible serve the punishment, Not SCHAPELLA, the man that came foward signed a sworn affidavit, and said "if i didnt come foward with this information, the guilt would haunt me for life"
THIS SAYS SHE IS INOCCENT....
FREE CROBY FROM BALI
A man convicted of terrorism in Indonesia is jailed for 2 1/2 years! Yet drug trafficking is the death penalty.If there is so much discrepancy in the sentancing, what hope is there in the process???
She is so innocent. Everyone in Australia knows that. Why hasn't the investigations been monitored and looked over by the Australian government and Police. It just makes people not want to travel at all. Disgraceful.
Australian airline employees got her into this mess! I think we should boycott Australian airports until these crooks they employ are removed and jailed. I'll be thinking twice before I hand over my bags to any airline employees in the future. It could happen to any one us!! People in Australia have put Ms Corby where she is now. Not the Indoniesian Government!
May the airline employees who used Ms Corby boogie board bag to smuggle weed to Sydney rot in hell! How do these crimals get to work in our airports? It's not just the Indonesian government thats being corrupt here.
I hope that Schapelle Corby is brought home to her family and that she can get past this horrible injustice. She paints a picture of strength and great dignity and we should all strive to face adversity and wrong doing with such grace. I cannot wait to see her home where she belongs.
And other sentiments are agreed with, I too hope the people that did this are brought to justice, what cowards......
How anybody could believe Schapelle Corby would try to smuggle any quantity of any drug into Bali is ludicrous. The drugs where obviously placed in her baggage at Brisbane for delivery to someone in Sydney by baggage handlers. The Australian authorities must investigate this avenue and petition the Indonesian Government to release Schapelle from the hell hole she currently resides.
Thank God someone has finally got a conscience and has come forward to help Schapelle. This poor girl has been to hell and back. I am only hoping that the B***ards that did this to her get what they deserve and they should be taken to Bali and held up in prison then face the firing squad! We are thinking of you Schapelle, Merc and Family.
KAREN PERCY: The trial begins in Bali later today of Australian, Schapelle Corby, who's facing drug trafficking charges. In October last year, customs officers at Bali's international airport found more than four kilograms of marijuana in the 27-year-old Queenslander's body-board bag.
The indictment against her alleges that she's admitted to possessing the drug, but her family says she's innocent. Schapelle's father, Michael Corby, has just returned from visiting his daughter in prison in Bali.
He's speaking to The World Today's Liz Foschia.
MICHAEL CORBY: I don't know how she can put up with the conditions she's in and the plight she's in, but she's keeping a real positive attitude and strong. She knows she's innocent, and she's just not letting anything sway her from that path.
LIZ FOSCHIA: And what's the feeling of her lawyers? Are they feeling optimistic going into this court case?
MICHAEL CORBY: Well, they're doing their best. Their hands are sort of tied a bit because we had no… they were hoping, I don't know what they wanted. Stuff… they saw Alexander Downer and the Federal Police, and they were going to check things out and do this, but that never eventuated. So, the lawyers, well they're doing their best anyway.
LIZ FOSCHIA: There was some talk that they were going to test the drugs that were found, to see whether or not they were drugs from Australia or from elsewhere. So, are you saying you don't know if that had actually occurred?
MICHAEL CORBY: Yeah, that hasn't happened. Now, whether it's because the Balinese authorities won't release the drugs to be tested, or the Australian authorities don't want to do it, I cannot tell you.
LIZ FOSCHIA: So, what will your daughter be pleading when she goes to this case? Is she going to be saying, "innocent"?
MICHAEL CORBY: Well, I imagine she's going to say, "not guilty," yea
Yet another example of our overpopulated, over-religious, northern neighbours trying to screw Australia and / or Australians ! Does Johnny Howard have the balls to stand up to them this time? I DON'T THINK SO!!
this is fucking unreal ... its the 21st century ,wtf u still shooting people for ... get a grip she was set up y would she even bother to bring weed to Indonesian they got enoff there allready
Justice and the rule of law is not being served by keeping this woman in jail. Bali Investigators and Prosecutors should be ASHAMED for their complete negligence throughout this case.
The Bali Legal System is failing everyone for not dismissing the charges on Ms. Corby, especially as the physical evidence was never fingerprinted nor correctly handled by Airport Personnel.
To the Bali Government I say, FREE Ms. Corby and save the last vestige of civil integrity you have left.
schapelle we all know you are innocent. The Australian people are all supporting you.Stay strong we will get you home Love Diane (the Australian lady who came to see you in Bali)
WHAT A BLOODY JOKE!A CERTAIN SOMEONE INVOLVED IN THE BOMBINGS GETS OFF VIRTUALLY SCOTT FREE AND OUR CORBY COULD RECIEVE THE DEATH PENALTY? PLEASE WAKE UP AND SIGN, THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!!
I can NOT believe our own Government doesnt help its own people. Yeah, lets donate money to these Indonesian countries so they can kill our people without a proper trial!
John Howard - pull your finger out!
Read the story here A TEAM of lawyers from the Gold Coast has been engaged by a high-profile mobile telephone entrepreneur in a bid to ensure beauty therapy student and alleged drug smuggler Schapelle Corby gets a fair trial in Bali.
Ron Bakir – better known by his business name Mad Ron – has thrown the legal lifeline to Corby, who has steadfastly maintained her innocence.
Corby, 27, is facing the death penalty or life in jail if she is convicted. She was arrested after Customs officers found 4.1kg of marijuana in her unlocked bodyboard bag at Bali international airport last October.
Mr Bakir and Gold Coast lawyer Robin Tampoe will travel to Bali today to meet with Corby and her Indonesian legal team.
A spokeswoman for Mr Bakir yesterday said he had pledged an "open chequebook" to a team of three Gold Coast lawyers to work on the case.
She said Mr Bakir contacted Corby's family this week, concerned she was not getting a fair trial after reading newspaper reports about her case.
"He just thinks it's an outrageous situation," she said. "He just can't believe that there is somebody sitting in a jail over there that nobody from the Australian Government is willing to assist."
In December, Corby's defence lawyers in Indonesia accused Australian authorities of "playing games" with Corby's life by failing to provide them with information that could prove vital to her case.
"Ron is the first to say that if she's guilty she deserves to face all the penalties Indonesia puts on her," the spokeswoman said.
"However, everybody deserves a fair trial and he's convinced she's not getting one.
"He basically wants to give her the opportunity that we all deserve and that's a fair trial."
Mr Tampoe said he would be working with Corby's defence team to extract information from Australian authorities that had not been forthcoming
So they could of be
there's too many unknown aspects to this case for the indonesian government to prosecute her. Its funny how certain evidence goes missing (airport video tapes) and test wont be conducted (finger printing the bag, origin tests, etc)all looks like a scam. BUT to top this off, whilst recently in bali some friends were threatened by a balinese fella that "if you do not buy - you will end up like other australian... in jail" hmmm now what do you think this is saying - bit of corruption.
everyone should be helping to free her - it could have been anyone of us!
I have been to denpaser airport your bag's are left at baggage collection , any-one could had put them in her bag before she arrived to bagage collection also i had noticed alot of porters or whatever they are called inside the airport all gather around you and take your bag/s for you i had 7 surrounded by me from now on we travel with padlocks on our bags . i believe it had been put in in denpaser air port.
