She was set up as she could have bought drugs in bali heaps cheaper than in Aussie so why are the ones that set her up are getting away with it The indonesian government should be looking in their own back yard
As an ex-military senior officer, I am bitterly disappointed with the lack of positive action from the Australian Government. I am also appalled with our security system and their tardiness to try to find X-Ray footage of Corby's luggage when it was scanned. This whole matter is dispicable.

Free this woman. What's happening is archaic and totally off the scale. We live in a world where too much dark shit is tolerated and then someone has to face the death penalty for this. Guilty or innocent is totally irrelavent - what these guys r planning to do is murder - pure and simple. Let the poor girl go.......
The death penalty for drugs is far too harsh. There are many more crimes that are committed in this world that get much less than this. Try focusing on them to make the world a better place. Free her.
Indonesia please dont let this girl die, just let her go home.
It is time to change your laws, there is no longer a need for capital punishment, especially over drugs.
hey corey dixon grant im a friend of schapelles if you give me ur eamil address i will send you an address the you can write to schapelle this address just post ur email add for me
I'm sorry to hear of her fighting for being innocent. I have a feeling she is innocent. I'd say anybody can plant any drugs in anybody's luggage.I'm hoping she get freedom from hefty penalty. I think death sentence is morally wrong for carry drugs.

I'm from Indonesia, and I'm pro for the release of Ms. Corby.
Even if she is indeed guilty, I'm extremely against capital punishment.
We no longer live in a barbaric world. New law on humanity should be applied
What she needs is a good international lawyer. If you want to help contact people that can help--UN, Australian Embassy. We've been boycotting Indo since local muslim, religious vigilantes bombed a bar with our friends inside. Beautiful place but full of inhumane havoc. I'd stay away from third world countries... They won't execute her though. Just watch.
If anyone knows any fantastic drug offense/felony lawyers contact them and/or the UN or the Australian Embassy.
What has the world come to when an innocent lady is denied her freedom? It sickens me to think that our country has turned its back on someone who is in need right now. I think this is an absolute disgrace. She is innocent. It's just terrible. Makes me really sad.
It would be a sad day in both indonesian law and tourism if Ms Corby is found guilty.
I just hope the Australian Government steps in before it's too late.
I don't beleive Schapella will get a fair trial in Bali and I think it is about time the Australian government stopped thinking politically and started thikning un humanitarian terms.
I agree with Somer. We are talking about an innocent fellow human being who is not recieving the justice she is entitled to. And with the guantanimo bay prisoners thaey are terriosts not innocent people. Get a life lucylu
This case really highlights one of South East Asia's great paradoxes: almost everywhere the rule of law is weak and corrupt yet the one legal procedure in which it leads the world is executions for drug offences .... If she is put to death, Mr Howard should threaten to rip up the $1B cheque that he is giving to Indonesia Tsunami appeal. See how quickly the indonesians will change their tune then! There are so many questions and points that need answering whith this case. Over in indonesia you are guilty until you prove yourself innocent. The indonesians seem suspeciosly reluctant to allow testing of the drugs found for their origin, fingerprints etc In America a person can be also scanned to see if they have been in any "contact" with drugs. This was not done either. The trial is a "kangaroo" court in a country where there is an radical element that is out to get Australians. Planting drugs in foreigners baggage is on method that is in use. This isnt the first time that is has happened.
Lucylu & Sgt - You are both hideous defects of the human race!
Do you understand that a young LIFE is on the line here.
Schapella my thoughts are with you.
It is great to see so much support for Schapella. She is so clearly innocent. If she was caught coming into Australia like this, it just wouldn't have gone this far. It's riciculous!!
Lets make a noise about this Australia, time for some charity at home. Very disappointed to see a SGT writing in here a petition for support, and showing his obvious guilty opinion doesnt say alot for our law enforcemen, how quickly we forget cases like innocent Lindy Chamberlain.
Excuse me LucyLu how dare you be so condescending. You don't know that she committed the crime - in fact - most people believe she didn't. Lets wait for you to be set up like she was and when you are facing death by firing squad - we'll sit back and be highly judgemental just like you are. You seem like a horrible person and I wish Schapelle good luck because she is going to need it with judgemental fools like you in our world.
BOYCOTT BALI!!!!! Is this the way they treat visiters to their country by framing them with drug possession! Where is our Australian government when you need them? Why aren't they helping an innocent victim? the Indonesian Law is absolutely ridiculous and inhumane.After all the help with gave them with the bombings and now they frame one of our own, what kind of evil people are you in Bali. Karma will prevail.. We love and miss you Schapelle and will see you back at home soon. BOYCOTT BALI!!
She has been the victim of baggage tampering. It is a world-wide phenonemon. The evidence against her is flimsy. The airline that transported her baggage and the Australian Government need to get involved. If any investigation is needed it is in Australia and of procedures at all these privatised Australian airports. The news reports say that the Indonesion police detected the contraband in her luggage as soon as it came off the plane and watched it closely. Of couse they scared off the baggage handler that was waiting to receive it. Boycott everything Indonesian and boycott Bali if these guys don't come to their senses.
I feel absolutely sick that this is occuring. It is so clearly obvious that it is an unfair trial - why doesn't our government do something to help her. She has been set up - no one would have that much and not try and conceal it properly - it is a JOKE and something should be done immeadiately. My heart is aching for Schapelle and her family and I wish them all the best and we can only hope that the truth will prevail.
Oh my god father... I can't hardlys believe that this gold coast trainee beauty queen is still imprisoned in that stinky balinese gaol. Just looks at her beautiful features (eyebrows to kill for) she is obviously innocent. This is a conspiracy I reckon. The government should intervene. I swear on my grandmother.
It is inappropriate for a government of reform such as the current Indonesian government to perpetuate barbaric punishments for civil offences. Please consider your obligations to international treaties on this matter, and what the holy Quran says on taking life, and permit Ms Corby to be house in a humane manner, given adequate trial preparation facilities (including appropriate forensic tests). The international community is watching you.
This is absolutely ridiculous. This poor girl has been framed for somethinhg she has not done...and we all know how corrupt the Indonesian/Bali Police are/can/and always will be. My father lived in Indonesia for over 4 1/2 years and I saw money swap from his hand to an Indonesian's Police hand without even a blink of an eyelid. And that was all because he was driving without an Indonesian license. FREE THIS POOR GIRL!! Our Govenment should be doing something here....especially after all the help we are giving to the Indonesian's after the Tsunami attack...COME ONE AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT SHOW US THAT YOU CARE AND GET HER OUT OF THAT HORRIBLE PLACE NOW!!!!
I would like to know what our government is doing to support and free Ms Corby. I do not feel that this government supports its citizens when they are in trouble. Is it due to fear to stand up to other governments? This could easily happen to anyone and I don't have the money or the power to hire a legal team to represent me overseas or lobby the government through my contacts to help release myself or my daughter...
They let some of the Bali Bombers go free and yet they keep an innocent girl locked up and won't allow us to prove her innocence by having the Federal Police test the dope or bag. What a set up! Bali citizens if you let this happen, karma will get you.
No one has the right to kill a human like this when there is not enough evidence to convict especially when the evidence was detroyed. I hope all goes well no innocent person should ever die in this way.
Death By Firing Squad!!! Even if the marijuana was hers, that is completely ridiculous! This is 2005, executions like that should be outdated and she should at least be able to have a fair trial, which she is not going to receive over there
This is just Pure crap !!! Look at what Australia has done to help the victims of the Tsunami ! Look at how we , as Australians get treated by other parts of the world ! God forbid if the Tsunami ever hit Indonesia... I BET they would turn to Australia for help... How lame is that , that they cannot help Australia , when they would expect help from us !!! Were all Humans, and What if it was Corby who took the drugs through... she still has a right to speak out her rights.... To Hell with Indonesia !! If Corby faces Death , I can only wish they get struck with death themselves !! T-S-U-N-A-M-I !
I hate the all south-asia about their
dark law and dark prison. We know there are a lot of corrupt officers, and when you
are a tourist there, everybody polite and there is a big smiling, but we know they are killers. Don't go to these countries, don't buy products from they, and don't give your money them until they aren't respecting the human life.
They can't make what they want!!!
Bali you accept our money for aid with one hand and hold a death sentence over the head of a citizen from a country that is helping you with the other. John Howard I hope you do not sacrifice one of our own, you want our votes as a whole so don’t abandon the individual. I will never travel to Bali again as the risks are just too high. Let her come home to her family and be bigger men for it!! World opinion is against you Bali.
Enjoy your holiday's Aussie's. Meanwhile our own are being taken advantage of by the Indonesian Govn. cooped up in a hell hole being made examples of, while all the time being innocent!
