How can you say FUCK Bali?? You have to respect the fact that each country has different laws. It's not for anybody to claim they know better. However I'm against the death penalty and whether or not Corby is innocent, she does not deserve to die.
I believe in her innocence and do not believe she deserves to die when there is a lack of substantial evidence and the strong possibility of the drugs being placed in her luggage by another person. We Australians take your laws very seriously and I cannot believe this young girl would take such a risk, get real!
Even blind Freddy can see that the package was put there by someone else.
I truly believe that Schapella Cordy wouldn't be all that stupid to place such large quantities of marijuana in her luggage.
Thoughts and prayers are you and your family.
It sickens me to the point where I can't put it into words. It's not right and Schapelle Corby should be brought home. She is an Australian citizen. After everything our country has done for Indonesia and this how you treat our citizens!!
I was visiting Australia during 12 March to 1 April and was appauled by what is happening to Schapelle, I pray she is released and returned to Australia a free woman - PLEASE GOD !
It's time we got organised and brought Schapelle home. We as Australians should be demanding her release and by signing my name here I hope to assist her.
Please fight the indonesian legal system. THIS IS NOT RIGHT! and it could happen to anyone! I am now scared to travel to Indonesia as I could find myself in the same situation :(
There's an underlying problem here, not that Schapella has been found with Marijuana, but that there's a serious drug smuggling problem in this country.
It makes me feel terrible to see her behind those horrible gaol bars, the horrible conditions she has to live with. This is something she is never got to get over. I hope us Australians can do something for her and soon. My thoughts are with her and her family.
Has her defense team contacted the airline she flew with between BNE-SYD
to see how much she actully carried?
I am in the airline industry and know that the airline should have a report of baggage weight for every person and also every flight.
If they have
this report, it would prove that the marijuana was placed in her bag
by one of the baggage handlers!!
This girl is truly innocent! Indonesia are doing the wrong thing by keeping her locked up and threatened with death, stop doing this, and hating the western people, we have helped you so much, now its our turn!!
My heart goes out to her, I could'nt even imagine what she is going through. Just to think she was going on a holiday! And look what can happen. I wish her the best and hope that the australian gov does it's bit to help.
Shapelle Corby, even if guilty of smuggling the drugs, should not be facing a possible death sentence. It's ridiculous that the Australian Government has left her there for this long without intervention?? its beyond my comprehension that this is actually happening. Its pot. She didn't kill anyone, she didnt hurt anyone, she may not have even done anything wrong. It's so fkd up.
I think the treatment of Schapelle Corby is disgusting. How would the people of Indonesia feel if we were treating one of their citizens like that?
I think its about time you stopped the nonscence and let her go. Think of not only what she is going through but what her friends and family back home are going through!
Indonesians make me sick. They should sit down and rethink some of their fucked up laws. Next time thousands of your people die, don't expect us to come to the rescue.
Why are we allowing this woman to be held to ransom by that corrupt and backwards country that is ore interested in appeasing spirits 3 times a day than human rights and justice?!
Come on, enough is enough.. Free Schapella Corby or Australia should cut off Indonesia - no more funding from us Maybe $$$ speak louder than common sense. Don't turn to us for help anymore if you sentance this girl to death.
Please set this poor innocent girl free. She has been used as a pawn - I fear that when my daughter decides to travel that something like that could happen to her. This is the most heartbreaking story that an innocent girl just going on a holiday and something like that could happen. My heart is with you Schapelle and soon you will be free.
the aust govt didn't care about 'diplomacy' with indonesia when it rushed to help the innocent east timorese. yet it can let an aussie rot in jail & face death for months in the name of doing things diplomatically. let me have a pauline hansen moment and say "PLEASE EXPLAIN"
If the Bali Bombers get 1 / 2 years in jail, how is this justice. I don't believe for a mintue that she is guilty. I have never been to Bali, but will definitely never go if the Indonesian govt does not step in and do something
This poor woman has lost months from her life for something that seems so trivial compared to other crimes that are being commited for lesser sentences. I believe she is not guilty and I hope the Australian Government will stop dragging their toes and start to do something to help before it is too late.
As an Australian, I am disgusted at the lack of support Schapelle has received from the Australian government. Her life is on the line. As for Indonesia...if only you cared for innocent Australians, the way we cared for your people in desperate times. Do not look at me to help boost your tourist economy any time in the near future!!!
Given the support (expertise and financial) the Australian people have extended your country during the recent natural disasters Indonesia has experienced, coupled with the fact that the evidence against Ms. Corby is, at best, questionable and incomplete, it would be reprehensible if this poor woman was not set free - with an apology.
Sincerely,
Rod Cedaro
It is beyond my understanding how someone like Ms. Corby, an australian who has probably never commited a crime in her life, be going through a redicules situation like this! - over Marijuana!!
A friends relative was murdered, the murder received 4 years for his crime, and another friends elder brother received 7 years for theft!
Yet, Ms. Corby may receive the death penalty!! - for Marijuana!?!?
WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO!!!
Fair enough, some countries have severe penalties for certain crimes but someone has to ask the question - WHO'S RIGHT IS IT TO DECIDE WETHER SOMEONE SHOULD LIVE OR DIE?? WHO'S ??
GET HER BACK HOME TO AUSTRALIA !!! Ms.Corby does not deserve to die, wether she is guilty or not!!!
It is obvious the marijuana was not hers therefore she should be deported to Australia. When the Indonesian citizen was given a ridiculously short sentence for killing all those people how is this justice? My family would now never go back to Indonesia
Liberal party please take note. I have been a card carrying member of the Liberal Party for thirty years. The way the current party members are/have reacted to the corby issue and not demanding that foreign con utries ALLOW all australians to be allowed to lock their travel cases is an absolute discrace. Until ALL the mermbers of this ultra right wing group of bible bashing po;iticiuans resign, I will npot give another vote to the party. Do what the Yanks would have done by now ---GO IN AND FORCIABLY bring her back to Australia. The ALL resign and ele ct an entirely new party.
Never in my wildest dreams would I have ever said this against the Liberal Party.
Liberals (ie Born Agains in Canmberra), you areALL a BLOODY discrace to Australia.
Twisted laws- how can a terrorist who harmed/killed many ppl go to jail for a few years & a lady who has not harmed anyone be sentenced to the Death Penalty? SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE!
Australia doesn't seem to be doing enough for this poor woman. Are we just going to sit back and then step in once the guilty verdict comes in and think that will clean our conscience? To the big wigs of this country, imagine if this was your daughter. Wouldn't you want someone to help sooner rather than later?
Rightly or wrongly - the treatment of this girl is a abuse of basic human rights - the penalty wanting to be imposed is excessive and barbaric in this supposed 21st century - i for one will not travell to a country where such backward practices are enforced. I do not agree with drugs - either using or selling - but you have to wonder about the sensiblity of the powers to be that allow a man who obviously had has the connections and the will to destroy so many lives a piddly two years in jail (aka the bali bomber) and then want to impose the firing squad for a woman who for all appearences has been framed but authorities - Free Ms Corby
