Absolutly appalling.Bali is in need of Australian tourists.I have absloluty no desire to travel there and will talk anybody eles out of traveling to bali.An Australian woman who appears to be fausly accused of importing drugs to bali is deprived of human rights.Who will be next.How about Austalia stops all exports to bali until this is sorted.
She is innocent. Consider the (circumstantial) evidence. Have you really established guilt beyond a reasonable doubt? No. Consider who is really lying here.
This reeks of set-up but not Balinese end, I think it was a plant in Brisbane for someone in Sydney (baggage handlers) to collect & they have missed it- and so the dope has gone thru to Bali. This woman has a sister in Bali, so I am sure goes there frequently- so would not jeopardize that.
Besides why bother taking dope there- "Coal to Newcastle". Aust.Govt.has to help this innocent woman.
It is absolute disgrace that this has not ended sooner. I know of many people who refuse to travel to Bali until she is free. It disgusts me after the Bali bombing that those animals are being treated more humanly than a young woman who was travelling to your country despite many people still believing it to unsafe.
Rado, let me just say, that I've been following this case since the first day, and Indonesia authorities are pathetic. If Shapelle is given the death penalty or ANYmore time in jail then I will personally boycott Indonesia myself. I will tell people never to travel to Indonesia and support the Indonesian people any longer. The way they have gone about with evidence (not taking finger prints etc) just backs up our theory that the Indonesia government doesn't have a leg to stand on. If Shapelle gets convicted it would do more harm then good to Indonesia - and do they really need more controversy surrounding them, after they've just gotten on their feet after the Bali Bombings. Fucking madness.
Even a blind monkey could see Scahpelle Corby is a victim of a botched interstate smuggling deal. I wonder has anyone checked the background of the over zealous custome officials to see if they are associated with extremist terrorist cells.
It's sad but it seems its a take take situation when it comes to Indonesia. Helping Indonesia is to no benifit to Australia. It is just further limiting the resources available which is sadly limited!
The least Indonesia could do is let this women go or pay the billions of dollars owed to the Australian people !!
She is innocent, unless some solid evidence is presented.
why in god's name would an australian woman want to smuggle drugs? this is not the face of a drug smuggler! your drug laws are absurd, inhumane, cruel, senseless and most of all useless!
please don't punish schapella. your prisons are overflowing with convicts just like her who are sentenced unjustly -- has anything chagned?? what is all this accomplishing, except a dark cloud over Indonesia in the history books? THINK ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES!!
This type of 'justice system' is only preventing Western travelers that your country depends on from visiting. Come out of the dark ages! You are making fools of yourselves in front of the whole world, and on top of that hurting a young, capable woman who has not hurt your country in the least.
I cannot believe this is happening to an obviously innocent victim. Hang in there Schapelle we haven't forgotten you here in Australia the way Indonesia has forgotten everything Australia does for them! You have alot of people praying for you.
Give us hard evidence she has broken a law - what happened to innocent until proven guilty.
Obviously you are better off being a terrorist in Indonesia than a tourist.
Long before I visited Schapelle in Kerobokan I felt in my heart she was innocent.If she isn't freed and exponerated by those who are too blind to see the truth of this..She will become yet another victim of a world where justice has become as hollow a word as Freedom or Democracy!
Because they all have A PRICE now..
and it is too HIGH..
~~
Pls pass on to her..
Been working away quietly in NZ Schapelle, but yesterday17th March a special day,in more than one way.. my Birthday and hopefully your day for better news..
May the luck of the Irish
Bless you..and I hope you will be free soon if there is any goodness left in Bali..
I am donating my spare cash to get this girl out! At this point it seems clear that she did not commit this crime - we would not allow animals to be kept the way she is!
This is wrong! Pot should be legal, its natural. WHY IS POT SO BAD WHEN ALCOHOL IS MORE DANGEROUS AND YET LEGAL????? Release this woman, or her death will haunt you.
Release her she isnt guilty......blind freddie can see that..........death for a crime like this...... and yet a terrorist who was responsible for approx 250 deaths gets around 2 years imprisonment.what a joke
I think its time they bring her home ......
What I don't understand is that Indonesia won't even give the death penalty to a terrorist mastermind - yet they are considering it for this girl whom hasn't even been convicted.
I don't believe she is guilty, based on findings I have been following on the news.
From my understanding she is an Australian Citizen, and I think it is time that the Australian Government push alittle harder - even if it means going to higher level people in the government. This has gone on long enough.
She is a victim, is our government leave her in this unavoidable situation then the Australian government is pretty much advertising to the Australian people that they do not care.
I bet it would be a different story if it were one Federal Ministers children in Bali facing a crime they they did not commit, all money on that they would do whatever is possible to bring there child home safley.
What our government has to consider that this girl is not only innocent. She is someone's Daughter, friend, loved one - it is not just Schapelle they are affecting its people all around her as well as the Australian Comminity.
** Side note **
I think if Australia don't intervene to have her released and sent home, that we should make the government put back into the Australian Economy the same amount of money that they donated to indonesia. When I say return to the economy I mean fund our existing needs ......
and YES I am boycotting indonesia AND if our government doesn't do anything soon - I AM GOING TO CEASE PAYMENT OF TAXES, and start a revolution !!!!
This is barbaric. We as the common man have the power to put a stop to this barbarity. Bombard the Aus Gov with emails concerning this issue .STOP THIS BARBARIC ACTION NOW
let the poor girl go FFS
look what happened to the Bali bomber,only prison for some months.and they want to take this womans life away for somethin i personally believe she didnt do.
john howard does not mind innocent people being killed in iraq so why would he care about and innocent girl being killed in bali so as derryn hich would say..shame on you johhny.
Please contact me
I can send you 1 picture to confirm what I am saying is true and the head of police in Denpasar tried to sell me drugs whilst wearing his police uniform.
He pushed damn hard to make me buy some but I wouldn't. I am the type of person where I if I am pressured I become more stubborn about it.
I have photos and negatives that I feel will help her case as it destroys the Indonesian Gvt to the very core and their corruption. She is innocent and my photos (not digital) and negatives prove so. Please contact me, I will only show a couple of photos to her lawyer or rep to prove I am telling the truth but negatives will remain in a lockbox, and those and the photos I will only show with Ms Corby present. I have been in a similar position. I do not want any money whatsoever so this is not a scam and I will sign any waiver to accept any form of money. I just want to help another aussie who is the same age as me who got pinned for drugs in a country where death by torture is the sentence.
Please contact me, I have vital information.
Please contact me, I have photos, negatives and my other friend who was with me to help in any way we can, please do not dismiss this evidence, I feel it is cruicial for her
A Friend
How can we, as a nation, let this poor "innocent" woman remain behind foreign bars? As I frequently travel to indonesia, I will certainly be questioning my location in future. I, for one, will not return and have the price of this young australian's blood on my hands!
You winge about people commiting terrism - whom they kill and hurt and distroy cities - there punishment is only jail term. What's the go with giving the death penalty for MJ. If everyone started committing terrism and stopped smoking MJ what that satisfy you???????????
FREE COBY SHE DESERVES TO GO HOME - YOU ARE NOTHING BUT CRUEL BUSTARDS.
INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.. IF THE BALI BOMBER CAN GET ONLY MONTHS IN PRISON FOR KILLING HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE, WHERE IS THE JUSTICE FOR SHAPELLE...EVERY HUMAN BEING HAS THE RIGHT FOR FREEDOM..... INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.. DO SOMETHING RIGHT FOR ONCE JOHN HOWARD.. DONT BE A COWARD
Let the woman go - it is so obvious that she didnt do this. John Howard, it is time you stand up for the people of Australia and DO SOMETHING before its too late for Schapelle.
HOW CAN THE BALI BOMBERS GET AWAY WITH MASS MURDER AND NOT GET THE DEATH PENALTY............schape lle Corby is innocent. she is not a drug smuggler. lets hope this new evidence will clear her name and she can come home
Why the hell would she carry that much weed into the country when she could purchase her own in indonesia for more than half the street value price in aust. hmm think about that one! LET HER GO!!
