i was praying weeks ago just standard prayers to God, and during prayer , i believe god asked me to go to a site and ask others to pray for Schapelle and her accusers. I thought this odd, but i did so, in 2-3 days i read that that her a business volunteered a free legal expences for her. Now if your not Christian, you may think im mad, but hey this is just how things happened. Free Schap
Every influence possible should be exercised diplomatically to protect Schapelle and all Australian citizens abroad.Ron Bakir and his lawyer have acted as you would expect the Government and Federal Police should and have shown outstanding qualities as citizens.Her only crime is not to be related to wealth and power.It is just appalling.
I have 3 children the age of Shapelle and my heart bleeds for her. I firmly believe she is innocent of any wrong doing and pray she will be home soon. My daughter went to B ali a few years ago ... to think this could have happened to her makes me go cold. Stay strong Shapelle, you'll be home soon.
If i am hearing rightly, her luggage weighed less in Australia than when it arrived in Indonesia. So how could she be guilty if she didn't have any contact with her luggage from leaving Australia and arriving in Indonesia?? I think you are being too hard on Shapella and deserves to be treated innocent until proven guilty!!!
It is disturbing watching the Schapelle Corby court case unfold. It's nightmarish at it's best. What sort of judicial system do they operate over in Indonesia. Cameras are heavily involved inside the courtroom, intruding at every opertunity to get "that" photo, they are even allowed behind the judges and in the faces of the accused, and the judges just sit there as though it's a movie set. It's insanity. There is no jury involved, only the decisions of 3 corrupt judges I suspect, to make a decision on the life or death of this girl. No doubt, their decision has already been reached, probably weeks ago. Blind Freddy can see this girl is innocent, but obviously the judges cannot (won't) see through this. It is a 'lesson' to westerners, and she happens to be the innocent by-stander caught up in someone elses fun times. I would never travel within coo eee of any of these places if you paid me too, it's far too risky and the consequences are well.....disaterous to put it mildly. We sit and hope.
One thing that's interesting about this case is the total lack of support Corby has gotten from the Australian government. Her defence team is being funded by a guy named Ron Bakir, who founded the "Mad Ron's" chain of mobile phone stores 10 years ago. I hate to think what would've happened to her if this guy hadn't stepped up to the plate.
I don't believe for one moment that anyone who knew they were carrying drugs into Bali would just stupidly put them in a body board cover. Even proven drug runners and users do a better job of attempting to conceal the drugs than that. So many Australians have dug so deeply into their pockets to help all those in need of aide since the Tsunami, and yet one of our own is so cruely accused and detained for something that she DID NOT DO. How about we hold off on the Billions in aide till the Indonesian Government sees reason and releases an innocent woman ?? Someone who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time !!! How about it Mr Howard ? keep the aide money in the bank til Schapella Corby comes HOME !!
I am sure that Schapella Corby is innocent person and she must be freed. But even if she is not, I don’t see any justice in the Indonesian low. Now they are talking about 4 kg. of drugs!! What about four million times, if not more, of human rights abuse??? Anyway this all is not going to make any satisfactory result and is not going to free the girl. I believe that the only way to free her and in the same time please the Australian people is by the interfering of the Australian government strongly in this case. Personally I wish her to come back home very soon, It is enough tortures of human being in Indonesia by the name of such a lousy law. Moreover, it is enough one Tsunami to cope with.....
Mr Howard. your turn.. You ARE the leader of the best country in the free world.. SHOW IT! Stand up
to these so called people and do the right thing.
you stepped in personally once b4 for a damn crim to be freed in some 2bit country but you will not
do the same for a innocent woman in Indonesia.. WHY????
we the people, demand answers and demand action from YOU!!! Don’t sit there and LIE to us saying I cant
do anything.. Press the indo president directly for a pardon..( you have done it b4)
Any one with half a brain can see she is innocent, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT..... AND you CAN do something..
Schapelle Corby should be free. She is innocent.
Let her get on with her life and career.
You don't have a right to destroy some innocent person life or career.
If you dare shoot her someone from Australia will hunt you down, and it will be your worse nightmare.
Once someone hunts you down and kills (the judge or firing squad member) no one will want to know you and people will turn their back on you
my father was a prisoner of war on the burma railway, and now i see this, makes me think, all foreigners are pathetic, sadistic people, let the australian go, God i hope nobody i know ever want to go over there, i would prefer to shoot them here first. you horrible, horrible people. NOT HUMAN
How convenient for the camera's to NOT be working at the Brisbane airport baggage handling area on the VERY day Schapelle checked her bags in. This girl is clearly innocent - set her free!
personaaly i think Schapella is not guilty and should be freed right away i haven't been following the case all the time but it looks like she is telling the truth and she must be allowed to come home to start rebuilding her shattered life. the treatment she has received over there is fowl i feel for her
Indonesia.... you need to think really carefully about where all your recent aid has come from you fuckwits !
Our stupid government may forget about this one, but we will not! i promise !
Schapelle Corby is obviously innocent and is the victim of unscruplous criminals. There is no justice in keeping her locked up and in fear of her life. In the name of humanity, free her.
There is no conclusive evidence that this young Australian woman was not set-up. To take her life would be downright murder. Think about Australia as a whole and how much money through tourism and donations we have happily given to your country. We've supported your people what about showing some mercy to one of ours. We're all behind you Schapelle.
After all Australia has done for Indonesia in recent devestating events, you'd think some grattidue in return would be shown. This poor girl is innocent - let her be free!!!!
please free this innocent woman she is innocent free free free her and let her come home to her loving family. this absolutely breaks my heart .thanks to the saviours who are paying legal defence we need more like you
THIS IS A HUMAN BEING. SOMEBODY'S DAUGHTER. SOMBODY'S SISTER. SOMEBODY'S FRIEND. SHE IS FLESH AND BLOOD. HER HEART BEATS, SHE IS ALIVE. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS PERSON'S LIFE. IT IS NOT YOUR PLACE. YOU ARE NOT GOD. EVEN IF SHE WAS GUILTY YOU SHOULD NOT TAKE HER LIFE BUT SHE IS INNOCENT. I BEG YOU WITH ALL I CAN NOT TO KILL SCHAPELLE CORBY!!!!!!!!!
Schapella is innocent.
The Bali Bomber is only geting 2 years and he killed so many people and this poor girl has done nothing and is about to be crusified. Australians should stop going into countrys like indonesia where dependance on tourism is extremely high.
The Australian government should look into some sort of legal arrangement with Indonesia to ensure that fair, equitable and humane investigative procedures are followed if cases like these go to trial.
She is innocent and a victim of evil doers.Let her go. It is outrageous & I will avoid Indonesian products & travel there absolutely until justice is done & she is freed.
1 billion in tsunami aid, another 1 million to help with the earthquake- youre kidding me. Federal Ministers stop worrying about what Indonesia thinks of you, and think about what youre country does. Surely with that much pull in "aid", this corrupt shit hole can do the right thing
This is not justice send Schapella home to her family,
What is wrong with your country people can kill...Bali Bombing and only get 2 years..this person can't you see is innocent.
Talk about double standards, We help Indonesia in time of trouble, neglecting our own people in need at times, Bali Bombers killed many people and they have all got off without any form of real punishment. We could all be victims of drug traffickers, what has happened to Shapell could happen to any of us. Boycott Indonesia by all means untill theor laws become realistic international law. John Howard, you suck for in-activity in helping Shapell. Spo all Aid to Indonesia untill Shapell is released.
I believe in Schappelle's Innocents. And, even If I am wrong.She does not deserve to die for this crime..It is simply barbaric what punnishment she could be facing....
Indonesia, give Schapelle a real chance to defend herself. Austrlaia does not accept capital punishment and think, what the Australian people do for your people in need! Please show some style for once!
I feel deeply sorry for Shapelle. With all the aid that the country is investing into Indonesia in times of tradegy, you'd think that they'd show some compassion on one of our fellowmen. Whilst terrorist Bashir gets 2.5 years for the Bali bombings whilst killed 100s of innocent people, Shapelle is facing the death sentence for drug-smuggling, when it seems obvious that she is innocent. Does this seem reasonable?? Of course not.
It's absurd - it's plainly obvious that Schapelle is innocent!! Who smuggles that amount of drugs INTO Indonesia in a boogie board bag??? NO ONE!!! Bring her home to her beautiful Mum!!
Free Shapelle Corby now she is clearly innocent and the unfortunate victim of a "Drug Smuggling Ring"
Indonesia is a country with shocking, archaic, evil laws and practices, but will accept millions of dollars in aid from many countries including Australia and this is what we are re-paid with.
Get Shapelle out then embargo anything to do with Indonesia or better still drop a bomb on it.
Bali is the last place on earth I would ever go to now. Its time the Aust govt stopped all aid to Indonesia and concentrated on bringing Schapelle home. Boycot Indonesia there are many other countries more deserving of our tourist dollar.
let Schapella go she is innocent. The Bali Bomber is only geting 2 years and he killed so many people and this poor girl has done nothing and is about to be crusified. Australians should also stop going into countrys like indonesia they depend on tourism how nice it will be when the dollar stops coming in. I also think the Australian government should do a lot more they should send in some commandos and kid nap her out of the country.
This is bullshit... Ms corby is completly innocent, send her home she's done nothing wrong.. The laws over there a stupid as long as this continues i will not visit and no one i know will ever set foot there that country will loose its tourism business if they keep this up!!! and they deserve to as far as im concerned!!
Hang in there girl. We all know your innocent. On my next holidays Im going to East Timor. They need my money more than the Indonesians, considering their past. I beleive UN & Aussie Troops still monitor the Boarder. It would piss them right off if we all start spending our money there. Return Flights from Darwin to Dehli, East Timor start at about $400.00. Plenty of Info on the net and bookings online.
Warning fellow Australians. DON"T fly anywhere! (International or Domestic) in Australia without a LOCKED BAG.
Its time the aust government halted all aid to indonesia until this innocent girl is released and returned to aust.
I will never set foot over there, and i urge all aussies to stay right away from there.
unbelievable! I cannot believe our
government is not doing more to help schappella, I and many others know that she is innocent. I wish her good luck & hope she is home soon.
The legal system is an absolute discrace. I know they have to go through these procedures for security reasons but Schapelle is clearly innocent. Just look at her face.
All we do for Indo in their time of need, what do we get? A possible death penalty for an innocent person! Look at the big picture people, why would she smuggle dope into Indo where it is worthless!!
This woman needs to be proved guilty, rather than her try and prove she is innocent. The Australian Govlernment been shamefully backward in helping its Australian citizen in a very dangerous position.
Your country is completely backward and corrupt, I was going to go to Bali on my honeymoon and joked that I may end up a political prisoner, a week after deciding not to go this happened to Schapelle! no one I know will ever go to Bali again!
She has been set up & being made a scape goat. Why would anyone buy something & then sell it for a quarter of its price. IT DONT ADD UP. They just want their pound of flesh to make the police look like they are doing their job however corrupt it is.
Schapelle has been to Indonesia before - Wouldn't she be aware of the guidelines for drug checking and also the punishments put in place by this heartless goverment? Also, who in their right mind would be so stupid as to to put 4kg of dope in their boogy board bag? Personally I would make some kind of attempt to hide it a little better. She is obviously innocent which is plainly visible by looking at the sad, empty and down-right scared look on her face.
Let her go and let us catch the REAL criminals!!
This is terrible and inhumane - this poor girl has so much to live for and doesn't deserve to be held in an Indonesian jail....She deserves to be home with those who love her!!
Where are your hearts?
