I fear Indonesia is making an example out of her,this will turn of tens of thousands of aussie traveling there, it will kill the tourism and rightfully so, who would want to visit there now.NOT ME that for sure
Why doesn't John Howard or Alexander Downer help this INNOCENT Australian citizen. Why cannot we bring international law into her case. As the Indonesian law's are pathetic. Did they at all take any finger markings from the marjuana bag? Its a joke to see how our goverment is running this country, we help Indonesia with their lastest disasters, but can't manage to help Schapelle's case. I am disgusted to be an Australian.
the indonesian government is setting her up....I'll bet on it........and if that is the case, then for sure she will be killed.....after all Australia has done for them.....
this is a joke ,ms Corby is a young women wth the world in front of her ,why would she do this?she has so oviously been set up by the filth that run the world today.set the loverly girl free.We send all this aid to these counties without hesitation and they wont listen when ask for justis to be served.This girl should be set free and compensated for the unjust treatmentshe has had to enjure. All the best ms Corby we are praying and thinking of you always .May freedom be yous soon Toby Archer
The Indonesian goverment is a low life, I think all Aussies travel in there home country, I hate Bali now and there god damn stupid laws, there murderers. Let the poor girl go home cant you see she is innocent, we aussies are not that dumb to take such a risk in low life countrys as Indonesia, and we look after there people for shit sake whats going on in this world
This is such an uproar... This girl is innocent!! did anyone see the look in her eyes... in any one media representation??? that is where the proof is! It's no wonder the western and eastern society's haven't become 'friends' with events like this!!! It's disgusting!!! GOOD LUCK SCHAPELLE, and GOD BLESS
I think that it's disgusting and deplorable the way they have treated her ,given all the aid we've given the indonesians.I don't believe that they've given her a fair trial and our foreign sffairs minister is not doing anything much to help at all.SHAME ON HIM.
The Australian Government should not have let it go this far. I believe she is innocent and if she is not should still be brought back to Australia to face charges. No one deserves the death penalty
our government should be doing more to help her, they should stop spending millions on these indonesians that are baying for her blood and spend the money on getting her home.
How can we go on helping the Indonesian Government when disaster strike them and they haven't done the right thing with Ms Corby, like doing all the testing at the time? I can not beleive that somebody will be that naive to carry drugs in that way and get way with it! Therefore SHE IS INNOCENT! Apart from all the unfairness of the procedures why do not solve the internal DRUG problems they have, like offering it without shame on the streets?
ive notice all the nie things people have had to say bout schapelle but what the go with all the fuck wits that are writing dumb stuff its not only upsetting but just plain wrong if you dont belive she is innocent then dont bother writting anything.
Why are we continuing to supply aid to a country that through its medieval, bureaucratic legal system has allowed an innocent Aussie to spend 25 weeks in prison?
Guilty or innocent? I wouldn't visit your country with this type of treatment of our people regardless, just deport them and cancel their passport. Leave it for Australian authorities to investigate.
You people have obviously never been out of your own lounge rooms let alone your suburbs. Probably been watching too many law shows on the telly where they always get the innocent off and the guilty convicted.
Some of you are saying really disgusting things that aren't helping anyone. Makes all Australians look stupid if people think that's how we all think and speak.
U R all idiots!
She hasn't been found guilty, let alone the being given a/the maximum sentence.
Let the courts do there job.
Her legal team doesn't have to prove innocence, the prosicution have to prove guilt beyond a resonable doubt.
Don't beleive the media hipe for crists sake!
Dickheads.
Schapelle Corby is obviously innocent, any fool can see that. Indonesia does only detriment to itself in holdng her guilty. As the feeling of many Australians now, I will never travel to Bali myself with my tourist dollars for fear of a similar misfortune and I will discourage anyone I know to be cosidering travelling there from doing so.
GET REAL.
OK, the death sentence for dope is to steap to westerners.
BUT...
Just because she is young, attractive, someones daugher, Australian, etc.,
how does that make her innocent.
Thats why we have courts.
Please be open minded and don't beleive what you hear on TV, radio, etc.
Were any of you present at the airport when she was arrested, questioned, have you been in the court every day, or have you been in your lounge room, ignorant to the facts.
If it was a fat ugly old bloke, would you feel the same?
If shes innocent it will come out.
GET REAL PEOPLE!!!
When I heard about shapella Corby getting coute smuggeling dope to Indonesia, I thought What a load of shit are they serious. Know one takes dope into thies countries, maybe through it and out the other side destened for Australia or other western countries. If you wanted a smoke of dope in asia it would be cheeper there than what it would be in Australia, allthough in Asia most of the dope is turned into the best hashis in the world, which most dope smokes would prefer.For the record, how many stupid people have been convicted of trafficing drugs into Indonesia, its highly unlickly. If thies countries wernt so bad at allowing the production of drugs there would be nothing to smuggle or trafic.where is Alexander Downer now,He is Quick to anounce that the government is helping Asia, how about standing up and getting the Indonesiaion Government to free Shapella from this redickulas crime. Unfortunatly in Australia people continue to vote in idiots to rule us.
My daughter is the same age. This is a horrible nightmare for a beautiful INNOCENT young woman. We should all boycott Bali, whole area and when they want to migrate here- NO WAY. Hang in there. All Aussies are with you
What do we have to do to get through to our LIAR of a Prime Minister? Ever since he won the elections all he does is assist the USA, BY SENDING OUR TROOPS TO DIE, he assists the Soloman Islands who also KILLED one of our troops, and he also assists Indonesia who let a terrortist get away with MURDERING aussies, and he still goes on to allow Indonesia to God forbid KILL Schapelle, an innocent scapegoat. He is the only Killer, I wish it had happened to him, and not Schapelle!!
Just goes to show our PM takes care of others before his own. I wonder if it was his daughter in Schapelle's shoes, what would happen then? This could happen to anyone and theres no way i'm taking that chance. Its like Schapelle is living the movie Bangkok Hilton. No wonder theres so many terrorists in the world, they kill hundreds and get locked up for a couple of years, then come out and do it again. Please free Schapelle!!!! We don't need to add to the hundreds of Aussies already dead in Indonesia
ayone with half a brain would know that for someone to try to smuggle any amount of dope into a country that has it in abundance is crazy. Why is then that it was not picked up in brisbane or sydney. does this not seem odd???. which surely means someone was not doing their job in both cities OR!!!!!! somebody planted it and the person at the other end was not so quick on the up take. No matter how you look at his this poor georgeous lady was SETUP!!!!. and i hope one day they catch the PRICK who did this and that they go through what she is.!!!!Schapelle if you get this, anyone with half a brain knows that you did not do this it is so obvious. Scapgoat you will not be or should be - hang in there you are beautiful.

If John howard was true about his pledge to Australia and its people then he would have done the impossible to free Schapelle Corby and bring her home. Maybe someone needs to remind him that he is the Aussie PM not the Indonesian bank. He should put his priorities straight and save one of his own before anyone else. I mean how could the Indonesians except all that relief money and not give an Australian a fair go? If Schapelle is found guilty and is put in front of the firing line, that her blood on Johnnys hands. There is no way i'm pledging any money to Indonesia or ging there again, until our voices are heard and Schapelle is freed!
A poorly handled investigation and bungles with evidence - both in Indonesia and here in Australia - has made it all but impossible for Schapelle's legal team to prove her innocence. All they can do is cast doubt over the evidence presented by the prosecution, which, it seems, is unlikely to do much to save her from a fate in front of a firing squad.
